23rd April at 4.10pm: Unfortunately, regarding the message below and lead-times, I called it wrong. My apologies. As such all orders placed upto the 15th - and about half of those placed on the 16th, will leave by Friday 26th. On Thursday no collections are possible by couriers as it's a national holiday here in Italy. On the subject of SDS, the company handling this for us, has written to me today, acknowledged more are owed to us (submitted in December and January) and that they are now working on producing the final lot of SDS for us. This includes Plantation, Wild and Jungle ouds that many of you ask about. Next, I have spent the past year (literally) sampling ambrette seed e.o and absolutes from various producers and resellers to no avail. They all smell really poor compared to what I carried. They are too nutty, too fatty, too vegetative, too lacklustre, falling away very fast, and really dont showcase the musky textured qualities of a top ambrette properly. Even the big naturals brands are all obtaining and selling sucky poor man's ambrette at the moment. Written as I have decided to move over to carrying ambrette CO2 and this will be in place until I can find a wow absolute and E.O again. CO2 is still not on par with what I had, but it offers a far better profile on the musky front than the abs and e.os in the market place right now. This CO2 will be in stock by early May. Next, we will put all the non.eu destinations we can supply to, back on our website on May 6th - so U.A.E, UK, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia. On the new product front, the next batch of 10 superstars will be released on the 20th May - lots more roses planned. And I will get started on expanding the bulk wholesale side of the business very soon - more aromatics and offered in larger weights as standard - likely upto a kilo on the website. Ok I will write again by Monday. Thank you, Adam : )
19th April at 5pm: Quick update to first say I have now added the following big ticket aromatics to the website: Italian Oakwood Absolute, Organic Georgian Rose Raduga Otto and finally Persian P.E.A Intense Rose (Otto). Orders, as I type with exception to 3 orders, every order placed up until the 11th has left with the couriers. By Monday 22nd, all orders placed up until the 14th will leave with couriers and I will type again across Monday with another update. Bulk Wholesale orders that still need to be manually typed and billed will be done so by Tuesday 23rd. Thank you, Adam : )
15th April at 5.30pm: Today I am running behind but I am happy to say that along with all E.U countries, we now can supply to the USA again. USA switched on just now and the Mysore Sandalwood 4 year aged E.O offer is extended for a week for USA clients to enjoy too. By Wednesday 17th all orders from the 9th April will be dispatched with DHL. Although we are rather full-on with orders at the moment, the lead time will improve significantly very shortly. Reason being since reopening the focus has been solely on building stocks up and we have staff coming on as well now (at last!). I will write again on Wednesday regarding lead times. This week my tasks are to get on top of the SDS we are owed by the company we have employed to handle this. And other than this I am adamant I will update the bulk wholesale list with more aromatics. Finally for now - the following 11 aromatics have recently been added to the site - French Rose Geranium E.O, Sandalwood Mysore E.O 4 Year Aged, Tuscan Olive Leaf Absolute, Mitti Attar (Petrichor), Persian Queen of Roses (Otto), Tomato Leaf Absolute, Oud Assami Skank E.O V.1, South Indian 10 Year Aged Vetiver E.O, Bengali Nagarmotha E.O, VIolet Leaf Concrete, Italian Helichrysum Absolute S.G. Thank you, Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “The aroma is bursting full of dry wine, tartness and very fruity- dry floral qualities, and I must add that it is very well rounded, fulsome, with no harshness or fatty aspects throughout. I do prefer the green cognac over this white material because I find the aroma of the green cognac more interesting, quirkier and fun. Within perfumery and in trace amounts white cognac pairs very well with methyl anthranilate to create a super grapey-wine note, also useful in trace amounts added to floral accords, imparting sparkle and sophistication and personally I look to this material for adding “pretty effects” within Oriental floral themed compositions.
Produced by steam distilling the aromatically rich by product of cognac – dried fermented and distilled grape tissue, clear in colour to pale yellow and of a pourable viscosity.”

On of my favourite materials. A wonderful balance between fruity and boozy…. and i mean real boozy! Very few materials have a true boozy note, but this is such a clear and pronounced aroma, and it works such wonders with florals and fruits.

It is indeed a boozy note and a strong bedfellow to use so I recommend working in dilution (say 10%, or even 5%) to trial it and get to know it. As the earlier reviewer said, it pares exceptionally well with florals; in my case with the more narcotic white florals, like jasmine sambac. I find it works amazingly with white rose too, as the lemon edge of that rose works a treat with the boozy grape scent of the cognac. An oil that has limitless potential once you get to know it.

One of the key ingredients in making a cognac/brandy accord and also as Adam mentioned, a grape one. It’s not that boozy as the green one, a little more tempered and well rounded, not that harsh, easier to work with compared to the green one. It adds lift to compositions, I personally haven’t tried it with florals but paired with Oakwood CO2, Vanilla Oleoresin and Benzoin Resinoid will give a nice brandy composition.
