17th April at 2.15pm: Quick update to say all orders placed on the 9th have been collected just now by DHL. Orders placed on the 10th and 11th will all leave by the 19th. I will type again on Friday regarding orders placed from the 12th onwards. Other news, by Friday I am releasing a few more very big ticket rarities including our Italian Oakwood Absolute and a super grail rose otto. 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 “This material is obtained by making incisions into the trunk of the Pistacia lentiscus tree. Liquid oleo-resin seeps out the incisions, once hardened this material is collected and steam distilled to produce essential oil. The colour is crystal clear and of a pourable viscosity. It is worth noting essential oil is also produced by steam distilling the leaves. The aroma is clean, balsamic, turpentine crisp, dry woody and forest morning pine needle fresh. Therapeutically this material is antimicrobial, antiseptic, antispasmodic, astringent, diuretic and expectorant.”
Arctander has this to say “It is occasionally used in citrus colognes, lavender-fougeres, etc. as a top note ingredient, lending a certain naturalness and bitter-balsamic tonality to these perfume types.”
Botanical Name: Pistacia lentiscus L
Origin: Morocco

opollock14 (verified owner) –
Mastic was a new material for me. I used it as modifier in the top note of my Province’s fields perfume. On the top of its lasting flowery heart was ” a natural burst of bergamot, Petitgrain and distilled lemon”. Just a drop of Mastic has made this “bursting” top to be deep and natural. Just a finishing touch, but what a transformation.

This mastic perfectly captures the scent of the forest. It reminded me of how my hands would smell after spending a day climbing trees as a kid–like tree sap, pine needles, and cedar boughs. Slightly camphorous and turpentine notes, as the description says. I’d recommend this for any blend that calls for an airy burst of nature and the outdoors.
