Update 12th May at 9.55pm: First, our order book. The majority of orders placed between the 5th to 7th May have been collected by the couriers, more will be collected tomorrow, and the rest will be collected by the couriers on May 16th. Many easy/quick to assemble orders placed after the 7th have also been collected by the couriers. We are working through the weekend, and I will update again here on Monday concerning lead-times. I am very sorry about the delays and also for the time it is taking me to reply to emails at the moment.
Next, good news on the horizon. By mid-late June I will release a 30 year aged labdanum, Persian cypress e.o, Persian neroli e.o, two Nagaland ouds, one jungle- plantation, the other wild, plus cedarmoss absolute, oakmoss absolute – one of my original sources, melonal n.i, guaiacol n.i, my own commissioned saffron oleo resin red gold, olive absolute (possibly two offerings), another flawless Persian rose otto, sandalwood India Royal - a 1930’s vintage Mysore, plus another intro-level oud from Thailand, a two year aged green sacra tincture, a flawless Indonesian sandalwood CO2 that I have been wearing on my forearms every day this week (heavenly and affordable), plus protium copal resin, elemi resin, a full spectrum green coloured royal hojari resin and I am musing on releasing a trial experiment of stock flower extrait by enfleurage – musing because it’s so fleeting. And finally, for the month of May I have released oud wild Assam e.o, oud Thai fruity-spice e.o (intro level oud), Italian 4-fold lemon super concentrate e.o, oud Chanthaburi honey e.o, orris Tuscan absolute 50% (8% Irones) , oud wild tabak e.o (our first quarter of a million euros per kilo aromatic) plus our 20-month aged grey ambergris 3% tincture and our stunning Indian sandalwood sweetie CO2.

Adam Michael has this to say “Orange bitter essential oil, grown in optimum conditions within Sicily and just bursting with the freshest citrus aroma imaginable. The botanical name is Citrus aurantium, a tree which produces petitgrain (leave), neroli (blossom), orange bitter (peel of the fruit) essential oils plus via solvent extraction orange flower (blossom) and orange water absolute ( neroli hydrolat). In massage orange bitter is useful for encouraging the elimination of toxins and it helps improve the circulatory system. The aroma of orange bitter essential oil is bursting with orange freshness and petitgrain tang, immensely uplifting and awakening on the senses.”

So fresh and uplifting at first sniff, I will use it for massage blends, bath products. I just wish, there’d be an organic option. I like to use citrus rind oils in the kitchen too and for this organic would better.

Dario (verified owner) –
I love it. It is like a more aldehydic, more perfumey, deeper orange oil, less sweet but very fresh. Super recommended.

Bitter orange oil combines beautifully with other citrus oils, giving the composition its unusual note, which captures the hints of petitgrain and neroli. Fresh and bright, tart and uplifting.
I recommend this oil to everyone in the perfume palette!
