10th June 2021 – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: We are still on course to reopen our newly structured business inside the next 10 working days. Until then, all countries have been removed from the website to prevent any orders from being placed.
We have an insane amount of NEW big ticket aromatic releases scheduled as well. As I type I confirm we are going to re-open with a NEW and EXCLUSIVE non IFRA-compliant Oakmoss Absolute Signature. All the content has been written, I just need to address the photography and that material will be good to launch.
We also will release Sandalwood India Gold CO2 2.0 as well upon reopening. Again, I have addressed the product content and just need to put in place photography that does this material the justice it deserves. This material is a mega limited batch, same quantity on hand as the original India Gold, so substantially less material than that of 1936 E.O which sold out in less than 10 hours. Wholesale packs will be available as well.
Next, Genet Absolute, we now offer Artisan product exclusive to Hermitage
Oils. As such I have re-written the Genet Absolute material today and as we are talking about a superior profile, this material is now sold as Genet Absolute Signature.
Ok, thank you to everyone who continues to support our business and I hope to see you soon. Adam : )

Eleonora Scalseggi has this to say “Choosing the right coffee material can be tricky. The first thought could be working with the absolute, which is alcohol soluble and gorgeous in aroma but very pricey. Then we might think of the CO2 extract, more affordable and still with the warm aroma of roasted coffee but often soluble in oil only (like our classic Total Coffee CO2 extract). Now we have found this new Coffee CO2 Select extract, that has all the kick of a robust espresso along with good tenacity and perfect alcohol solubility. And it’s food grade too!
Aromatically it’s a very dark material, with strong notes of roasted coffee and burnt tobacco undertones. Highly fragrant and with a very decided character, with a little imagination it can work far beyond gourmand accords, pairing spectacularly with florals and blending seamlessly with tobacco and vetivers but also spices and resins materials.”
Botanical Name: Coffea arabica
Origin: Ethiopia
Alcohol Soluble: Yes – Contains alcohol, not oil soluble

Best coffee I have ever smelled and 100% alcohol soluble! Now I need to go pour myself a cup. Buy this! You will not regret it.

Yes, exactly! This is it! In two years I have ithis (can not bear to use it all) the scent turned even darker, bitterer, more tobaccoey, whereas before it was slightly more playful and sweet, sugary even (I could almost taste tiny coffee flavoured sugar crystals – if that makes sense at all).

I have this wonderful product for a couple of months now and I still have to use it in a blend like it just recently did with Cocoa Colourless Abs. (great stuff also).
Opening the cap of the bottle and smelling already is a lovely experience sensing the odor of freshly ‘Barista’ made coffee.
I think this is a must have for the natural perfumer if blended with the right oils.

Barista officionados beware. This extract can overpower, but, beautifully, like a cafetiere sitting bubbling on an Italian country stove. Love this but it’s presence is not easy to put in the corner

I love this stuff, it’s like waking up to the real things, without having to wait for it to cool down! I enjoy combining this with hyrax to deepen the mix, or with citruses to make an Italian proud.

This is one of those materials I thought Id like, but hardly use as im not a coffee drinker.
How wrong I was! This has been a big part of some of my favourite blends and absolutely love trying it with a little Lavender, Seville.

It is like smelling pure coffee beans, just after they have been roasted and grined. Maybe it is not the strongest/most intense scent (it is not weak either!), but whoever seeks the scent of a perfectly prepared coffee would certainly appreciate this material.
