7th November at 11.35am. Update. First, Hermitage Oils website is now closed for the rest of 2023. No more orders are being accepted and all countries have been removed from the website at checkout, to prevent orders from being placed whilst we are off work. Apologies if I sound like a broken record, but politely I have received so many emails asking about placing orders already. I am now putting an out of office message in place on the email and website contact page. As soon as all orders have been delivered - we are then properly off work for the rest of 2023. Sincerely, we need a proper break as the stress of this year has become too great. On a brighter note, the following SDS are now uploaded onto the website and available to clients by logging in to your account and going to the section titled SDS (assuming you have purchased the product) ... Blue Lotus Absolute, Bergamot Mint E.O, Clove Bud Absolute, Apple Liquid, Chamomile Roman E.O, Cognac Green Signature Gold E.O, Costus Root E.O, Eucalyptus Absolute, Cocoa Absolute Signature Gold, Geranium Chinese E.O, Frankincense Rivae E.O, Buddha Wood E.O and Cedarwood Himalayan E.O. The business handling the conversion still needs to hand over about 60 more SDS and as we receive them, they will be uploaded onto the website. Thank you, Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Palo Santo also known as holy wood is produced by steam distilling the aged wood of Bursera graveolens. The material is clear to light yellow in colour and of a pourable viscosity.
The aroma of Palo Santo can be considerably different from batch to batch I find. Generally though the aroma is of a milky, minty, lactonic and somewhat warm woody resinous character. This particular batch we are adding today (February 2019) is a fresh distillation, very powerful, with decided minty head notes and a milky-lactonic woody heart. Over time this material will mellow and whilst its minty character will lose part of its oomph, its woody heart notes will keep growing in depth and beauty.
Useful for imparting extra milky character within ylang ylang and sandalwood accords, pairs nicely with pemou oil, y-octalactone, coconut aldehyde, and offers interesting effects in trace amounts when added to white floral creations.”

I love this oil because of its properties. This wood is widely used in many spirtual practices and well known as energy cleanses. Smell is quite strong and woody.

Milky with lots of coconut hints but ufcourse it is a woody powerhouse that reminds you its true origin and spirituality

Tricky to work with with as Palo Santo is just such a powerhouse and tends to bloom almost 10 fold in anything I blend it with. I’ve realised he prefers to be alone in my world and used as the clearing/healing medicine traditionally associated with ayahuasca ceremonies and shamanic ritual. Palo Santo can take you beyond if you let him!

Such an mystical beauty this is. Resinous and woody, but also invigoratingly minty and a tad playfully citrus-like. In a few years its minty nature dissipated in favour of this sparkly citrusy resinousness. Milky notes might be there, but do not seem really prominent to me.

A strong, pungent scent. It reminds me of a field full of herbs where I used to camp. Happy memories.

truly sublime palo santo oil! highly recommended.

My husband loves palo santo – it reminds him of his first leather shoes he got as a child. But Adam’s Palo Santo took his breath away…and to be honest, me too. It’s a different league from what I’ve bought so far. Really, I have never felt such milky, citrusy, even leathery tones in anything. Like sacred Incense. The class! From now on Palo Santo only from Adam and Eleanore!

The grandest Palo Santo ever! And I’ve tried 3 different ones. Thank you so much to all those who leave comments.
Thanks to the previous feedback – I read about the milk and the tree. And decided to give it a try.
That’s exactly what it is! Exactly milk and wood! Only the milk is not synthetic, but real, gentle milk.
A masterpiece material!
And a huge thank you!
Hugs, Medea and Anton.
