17th January @ 8.35pm: Just to say all “retail” orders placed up to the 1st January have now been collected. This week we will clear all “retail” orders placed up until the 10th January. Of course, we will push to achieve better results but note we are working flat out. Beyond this, if you would like to see the return of MYSORE SANDALWOOD E.O, please do email to let me know as I am musing on bringing this back. Towards the end of this month I am also going to try to release my first WILD HINDI OUD e.o on the site, this is a custom distillation exclusive to Hermitage, it is extremely clean woody, floral, fruity and sweet in parts. It is pure perfection and will retail for just 1435 Euros per 10ml. This is a steal price. Sample vials will also be offered. I will write again by Thursday this week. Thank you, Adam Michael : ) 14th January @ 6.30pm update: Since I last wrote we continue to make progress. All “retail” orders placed up to the 29th of December have now been dispatched. “Retail” orders placed between the 30th December to the 1st January should all be dispatched now on Monday 17th January. And we continue to process little/quick orders we see regardless of date for one hour each day. Once we are on top of the workload, I will be working on product content for 12 new, big-ticket releases, and they will be added to the site throughout February. Across February the sites primary categories are also getting altered, because as we continue to transition into becoming a wholesale business, I want to draw attention to our Hermitage Oil custom distillations. A total of 84 SDS have now been uploaded to the site and as we get on top of our workload we will keep adding more : ) Also, emails, please note simply due to a lack of manpower, we are chiefly concentrating on responding to emails that are connected with orders still processing. Once back on track we will reply to all emails received of course : ) I think this covers everything for now and I will aim to write here again on Monday. Thank you, Adam Michael : ) Close
Adam Michael has this to say “The top note is full of fresh geranium-rose character, with a tropical fruity body and distinct juicy lychee sweetness. This is followed by vibrant green leafy violet notes entwined with delicate mint and watery cucumber nuances. Egyptian geranium absolute is produced by solvent extracting the aerial plant parts, dark olive green in colour and of a pourable viscosity. One of my all-time favourite materials. Works especially well at imparting extra freshness and increased depth when used with carnation, tuberose, aldehydes and for bringing together rose accords. A must for chypre, floral, fougere and even hesperidic accords.”
Arctander has this to say “Geranium Absolute is used in perfumery, particularly in high-class rose bases, chypres, fantasy perfumes, etc.”

I love this geranium absolute, it has a sweetness, I made a rose accord and it blended so beautifully!!!
Dustin M (verified owner) –
This geranium absolute is fresh, clear, not too green and I agree with Adam that the mint like notes are watery. Nice rose undertones. I may like it more than the do.

So beautiful so rosy..with lots of sweet honey and nectar nuances that creates a heavenly smell ..probably the best Geranium oil i bought..

So different from a regular Geranium EO.
To me, it’s first and foremost a delicious juicy lychee-geranium. No sharpness.

Ooh..it is darling! :)..so citrus, flowers (roses), honey..I don’t even know what else. Love this, realy great material for generaly use. Runs away very quickly from the distilled geranium, which is softer. Together they make a strong pair!
