22nd March at 10.05am: Hello World, Adam here with a quick progress report! First thank you of course to the many who have placed orders, most appreciated. As I type should you place an order, please note the lead time is 5 working days before we will be able to assemble your order. This Sunday by 3pm Italy time I am going to release my Onycha Shells co-distilled in 33 year AGED Mysore sandalwood for sale. 10ml price is 350 Euros due to age of the sandalwood used. Also, if you are shopping around for Jasmine Absolute, Violet Absolute or Rose Absolute Turkish, my current batches are exceptionally beautiful – zero gassy aspects in the top, incredible body, excellent development and just so blissfully perfect from start to finish. For those musing on larger weights I can offer my Turkish Rose Absolute (batch TRSGAA01) at 2450 Euros plus vat per kilo and can offer this for 2300 Euros per kilo on a 3 kilo buy – 6900 euros plus vat. I will write again on Sunday afternoon. Thanks, Adam : )

Adam Michael has his to say “Opoponax absolute is produced by solvent extraction of the gum resin and then transformed into an absolute through alcoholic washing. The aroma is an infusion of luscious sweet toffee, soft dreamy vanilla, balsamic woods and sprinkled with liquorice, cinnamon, incense and earth. Jam red in colour, of a very thick consistency that will become pourable with bain-marie. Opoponax absolute showcases its beauty best when it is diluted at 10% in perfumers alcohol.”
Arctander has this to say “Opopanax Resinoid is a popular fixative in high-class perfumery, if and where its dark color is no drawback. Its warm, powdery, Oriental and spicy effect is utilized in countless combination fixatives for forest-notes, moss-notes, Oriental bases, “powder” type perfumes, spice fragrances, heavy florals, etc.”

A non liquid mass that has to be diluted in ethanol to be workable. Has this swirling resin tone, reminicent of myrrh but rather to the woodier side, some spicyness, and with a small concentrated sweetness. Also a little more “uncley” than myrrh. Yes, definately a note of distinguished gentleman. A long base note, great as an alternative to other resins if you want variation.
