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 material offered here is linden blossom absolute diluted in 50% dpg which results in a semi-pourable product and one that is much easier to work with. That said this material will still benefit from bain-marie before it becomes entirely pourable. The aroma to my nose is warm floral with clear lemon and honey qualities in the heart. The base notes comprise of sweet floral, green and herbal tea nuances. A beautiful material that emits a very different fragrance to that of the living plant on a summer’s evening.”

I actually came to know about Hermitage Oils looking for this product. Since I had to buy other things to be able to place an order, I did it and fell in love with the products.
This Absolute, per se, is just amazing. The scent is something I would guess a faerie queen might exude when visiting the mortal realm, very agrestic and, at the same time, majestic. It’s got claws (sharp mellifluous nuances) hidden among silky layers of beauty (delicate flowery aspects mixed with airy green whispers).
This isn’t the easiest material to work with, even diluted in 50% DPG, but it is manageable and I haven’t found issues to mix it, yet. It goes fantastically well with Elemi, Lemon Myrtle and Cedar (this is, actually, the backbone of my future endeavor).

Fresh, warm floral aroma with delicate, sweet, honey-fruity top notes and a fine, green, hay-like undertone reminiscent of the scent of sweetened herbal tea.

Olor idéntico a la flor. El mismo olor que hallo en los sobres de flor de tilo para preparar una infusión. Olor dulce, seco, cálido. Delicioso. Igual que pasear bajo tilos floridos.
