26th April at 7.35pm: A quick update. Many parcels have left today. The situation is as follows, we still have one order left to process for the 10th (Paris retailer), one for the 11th and a lot more still for the 15th through to the 18th - mostly USA wholesale orders. The plan now is to work on orders across the weekend and by no later than Tuesday 30th - every order placed upto the 18th will be dispatched. Ideally they will all be out by Monday 29th but based on how I called it wrong recently I think it's better to call it for Tuesday. I'll update on order lead times for the 19th onwards on Monday 29th. It goes without saying that I am very sorry about the lead-time but like the lab and staff, it is now just a matter of a month or so before we are better organised, holding larger stocks of each aromatic, and in turn the lead-times will drastically improve going forward. Ok, back on Monday and thank you to everyone for the continued support. Thank you, Adam : )
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 neroli we offer here is 100% pure neroli essential oil that is obtained by steam distillation of the dried flowers. Although the enfleurage process is still used under some circumstances most of the oil available commercially is produced by steam distillation as dry flowers deliver a higher yield of oil than fresh ones. Neroli blends well with almost any other floral oil, especially rose, and for the ultimate in luxury you might try mixing it with both rose and jasmine absolutes. The colour of neroli is yellow but brownish red if exposed to light for some time.
There are many apocryphal stories that account for the name of this oil. That it was Nero’s favourite perfume and therefore named after him is, I think, unlikely since there is no evidence to suggest that the orange (bitter or sweet) was available to the Romans at that time. More likely is that the oil was used for perfuming gloves by the wife of Flavio Orsini, Prince of Neroli in about 1680. The distillation of the oil was first described in 1580.”
Joseph Colbourne has this to say “An invaluable essential oil for aromatherapists and perfumers alike, our neroli distilled in Tunisia is remarkable in its radiant, green aroma, with invigorating, top notes drifting into round orange flower softness and sunlit elegance. Noted for its capabilities as a central nervous system sedative, neroli essential oil has been shown in studies to reduce chronic anxiety, depression, stress, and shock. Furthermore, it is a skin nourishing oil, aiding in the healing of scars, stretch marks, and broken capillaries. Needless to say, it is a staple in any aromatherapist’s cabinet.
As a perfume material, one cannot deny its suave beauty in shaping everything from floral orientals to masculine citrus colognes. A versatile, substantive material, neroli has an impact even in small amounts. There is also significant tenacity, with its vibrance remaining even eighteen hours later on a perfume strip. A mildly balsamic dry down is a great bridge for base notes in a composition.”

Thomas (verified owner) –
Superb neroli oil. Extremly comforting scent. Definitely a TRUE neroli oil, that reminds me of the walks I used to take in the Cordoba streets at night (Spain) during early summer. This oil succeeds in being at the same time intoxitacing and relaxing. Highly recommended.
GinoF197 (verified owner) –
High quality stuff and indeed a powerhouse, use sparingly otherwise it will overpower your perfume creation.
Konstantina B (verified owner) –
Really strong, perfect for masculine citrus colognes, excellent quality
innasany (verified owner) –
Definitely the best neroli, which I had. No petitgrain sharpness, but the lightness and mystery of tender flowers. Very long lasting, pleasant, calming..not top notes, but deep heart and basic notes. I will never have enough.
Carlos silva (verified owner) –
Most beautiful neroli i ever smell a perfection.Highly recommended.

Soul balm:)
A boon for these interesting times.
I find myself reaching out for it almost in state of panick and taking deep deep breaths hungrily. I stay with the scent centred in its loving and calming embrace. B still my soul all is well.
Gabriella C (verified owner) –
Such a beautiful oil, definitely the best neroli i have smelt.
Robert (verified owner) –
I agree this is superior to any other neroli I’ve ever worked with, it’s just so powerful and zappy! I do prefer the absolute if I compare side by side but some things just need a drop of this instead. Not too sweet, green undertones a little soapy.
Oiland (verified owner) –
Neroli essential oil is my queen. Sophisticated, graceful, charming and rich.
Jolie T (verified owner) –
Sometimes neroli can have sour edge, or be little off- but this one out of the bottle – no off notes. It is strong, powerful, all neroli has to be diluted to find the subtleties, have it open up-when this is diluted to20% it has the typical high , sweet&floral profile, but it also has a undertone of fruit- it is diffusive, vey enveloping. Neroli can be both an eye opener and a soporific-and this one does both, leaving me happily calm, satisfied.
The tenacity is good, this is a mid note. With some support- it could easily be the star of any perfume.
10% it a sweet musky citrus, almost watery, but still tenacious- so it can be a back up singer too.
Neroli is so important to not aromatherapy and perfumery, so important to get the right note going- and truly his is the right note.
CATHERINE A (verified owner) –
Linalool smell with citrus note
Long lasting more than 10 hours
Aleksey P (verified owner) –
Great neroli oil! So bright and powerful, as refined and sophisticated. A harmonious combination of sweet and bitter notes, pungency and tenderness.
For masculine citrus accords, I combine it with bergamot petitgrain and lime, for feminine accords with sweet orange, tangerine and yuzu.
Rose and sandalwood give neroli extra sweet, floral and creamy undertones.
Galina G (verified owner) –
Neroli oil from the Hermitage is a real gift for real princesses. Although neroli is often used in men’s fragrances, I personally believe that this oil has a purely feminine character.
And I agree with the definition – TRUE neroli. No extraneous notes resembling petitgrain, as is often the case in fakes or cheap oils. The scent is pure and shining like a diamond. Refined bitterness sets off sweet, honey, floral and citrus notes.
A fragrance for romantics and lovers.
Oiland (verified owner) –
Neroli true essential oil is a gold ingredient in skincare. Anti-age properties, suitable for sensitive skin. Emotionally is calming and in the same time inspiring.
Kai Leon Art Parfumeur (verified owner) –
Top-notch healing perfume in its own right – fine, rich, fresh, seamlessly balanced, suave, euphoric, diffusive, radiant, full of delicate nuances.
For a full image of Italian princess obsessing about this essence – to the point of routinely perfuming with it her horses, blend with animalistic leather bases (Patchouli, Cambodi Oud, Civet), and enjoy baroquified decadence. For the highest ecocative resolution of the iconic image of ‘Fleur d’Orange’, and anchoring its light nature I mix this perfect Neroli with its ‘meatier’ virile brother Orange Blossom absolute, also gorgeous from Adam.
A quote of a friend: ‘when I let myself to enjoy Neroli with guilt-free generosity, my mind begins to swirl dancing on sirenic melodic scales, produced by clinging gem crystals and sparkling bubbles of careless happiness’.
