2nd October at 9.05pm: All orders placed upto the 20th September will be dispatched by tomorrow. All orders received up until the 25th September will be dispatched by 6th October. I will provide dispatch times here, for orders placed from 26th October to 28th October on 6th October. Thanks, Adam : )
September at 5.30pm: First apologies for not writing here yesterday as intended. As I type all orders placed upto the 15th September, will be dispatched by tomorrow with couriers, and orders placed upto the 16th will all leave by Friday 29th. Orders placed on the 17th will leave by Monday 2nd October. And on Monday 2nd October I will provide dispatch times for orders placed on the 18th to the 20th September. So at the moment the lead-time is about 2 weeks from placing your order. Normally what happens is we reopen, many orders come in and then things slow down and we normalise. However in this instance I suspect it won't happen this way. As we close in October (see below) I am seeing regulars buying much more to cover themselves across the period we are closed. Add to this my wholesale work which is now coming in really fast - as I have started sending out the stock reduction list, and therefore I forecast a 2 week lead time all the way to closing. Meaning once we stop taking orders - It's probable I will still need 2 weeks to finish before I can close properly for the year. Therefore if you do want something, plan ahead please and only buy if you can wait as with the utmost respect, I am not letting anyone queue-jump, even if they go on to tell me they haven't seen these updates.
On the subject of the stock reduction list - due to lack of time, I have to create it in two parts. Part one covers aromatics A-K and part two will be sent out on email (to those on the list) on October 6th. Regarding the new releases, they will happen, this I promise but I can't get that job done for this Sunday now. I'll need until mid October to make that happen. If you are interested in the new releases all I can advise is to keep checking back here as I will confirm the release date before, well, releasing the new aromatics! On the subject of Ambergris, it's a really touchy topic for me at the moment and I am going to comment on this in more detail shortly, but note I am rethinking decisions concerning ambergris. Back here with a final update on Friday afternoon. Thanks, Adam : )
22nd September at 4.35pm: A quick progress update. By Monday 25th all orders received up to September 11th will be dispatched. By Friday 29th all orders received up to September 16th will be dispatched. Of course, be assured I will push to get as many orders as possible dispatched. For business clients waiting on a copy of the stock-reduction-list, this will be emailed across to you by Wednesday 27th. I will be taking tomorrow off completely for family time and will be back at work across the early part of Sunday afternoon. Next mini update here will be on Tuesday 26th. Thank you, Adam : )
19th September at 6.55pm: Right, update time. First, I am now working on the orders placed from 1st to 17th September and I think within 7-10 days maximum they will all be dispatched, along with the gifts : ) Next, I am going to release Kerala Indian Sandalwood 1953 E.O by Sunday 1st October, along with Organic Moldovan Pink Rose Musk Otto, 20% White Ambergris Aged tincture and Phenyl Ethyl Alcohol by Fermentation. If I can find the time I will also release another Assami grown Oud (plantation) and a vintage offering of Indian Vetiver E.O and Red Myrrh E.O (sublime profiles) that I have held back for the past year now. Regarding closing for 2023 in October (please read below) I need to kindly put on record that I won't be able to make exceptions for clients - even those who have become friends, and to please keep this in mind and plan ahead should you need something specific from Hermitage. I will write again by the end of the week and thank you very much to everyone for the continued support. Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Oud Nagaland is one of my favourite aromatics to wear neat on my skin. Understated, very simple, non-attention seeking and just a very beautiful unisex clean Hindi oud with great staying power throughout.
The opening consists of plumes of delicious smelling sweet cresole, clean yummy woodyness, fruit jelly and warm floral jammy tonalities with a gentle astringent finish. The mid to base notes are more of the same albeit the floral qualities shine through more prominently, reminiscent of a voluptuous jammy freshly distilled bracteatum helichrysum e.o with warm mulled fruit, damiana and davana esq effects. Within this aroma profile I also find stunning Tuscan leather nuances that are of a particularly bright, smooth and honeyed character, along with a cumin-caraway infusion, following with balsamic undertones, comparable to benzoin, peru and toasted vanilla. The backbone here is dark, smooth, sensual resinous woody oud. This is so good in my opinion thus bestowing this aromatic with Signature Gold honours.
To finish, I have evaluated Nagaland productions from many big names that I respect greatly, initially for educational purposes and then because I came to realise Wild Hindi Ouds generally provide a layered scent profile that I derive great personal enjoyment from. Written because maybe it is nothing more than good fortune, but I have managed to source another true trophy piece aromatic here that I would think even the most demanding oud connoisseurs will appreciate.”

Opening with a touch of sweet spice envelope with definently fruity plum and more..Deep sweetness of bitter honey and lots of precious woods ..a touch of quality leather silken in amber richness and probably a touch of cumin makes it a wonderful meditative and beautiful experience..as it aged it will become a total bliss. When sniff deeper to the core you realize a dark herbal calmness slightly cooling heart as if your mind trying to rediscover any notes left behind the real magic of hindi oud!!!
