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 “In keeping with the essential oil/butter and our absolute offering this Orris Root CO2 is glorious green violet potent from top note through to dry down. The floral powdery warmth is nothing short of exquisite and the fruity undertones sing a song of real joy and happiness. The feel good factor from just sitting with this material and inhaling from the bottle is mind blowing.
Unlike the 1% irones CO2 offering, this Orris Root CO2 contains 3% irones and whilst the 1% offering is of a partially water wax like consistency this material has a consistency comparable to that of lip balm, wax like with a soft velvety texture. With gentle warmth this material becomes pourable very quickly. This CO2 is a select extract, produced from the roots of Iris germanica, golden treacle yellow in colour. The irones content breakdown is as follows – 0.14% trans-alpha Iron, 1% cis-alpha Iron, 0.002% beta Iron and 1.8% gamma Iron. An essential material for building exquisite violet bases and rose accords.”
Botanical Name: Iris germanica

More refined and elegant than the 1% irones absolute offering in my opinion, very similar but the cacao notes are darker and less milky sweet not to mention the almost haunting cool violet floral aspect this one has.
Even when orris isn’t obvious within a fragrance it can add such depth and beauty, mystery even. I always say that I’ll make a single note personal fragrance with orris materials (but never do!) as it has such a special aroma. I must get around to it.

Orris is by far my favourite aromatic material. I have been sneaking it into almost all of my perfume blends and so far haven’t regret it one single time.
With that being said, this particular CO2 offering is no exception. Very beautiful material indeed, I could just sniff it for hours. Using it is quite easy, however putting the impressions into words is not. There is just something about it that reminds me of first warmer spring days, mid April or so, when nature is awakening and the air smells just intoxicating. I love it. I have already used this up but left the bottle to enjoy the remaining scent. Will be buying some more.

A very nice product with incredible value for its quality. This orris is more floral than rich, and leans on the soapy side of orris impressions. Put this aside for a year, however, and you will be surprised by how it matures into something really special… refined, distinctly white floral with a musky halo.
