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 “The aroma of petitgrain water absolute is very potent, and as I have come to learn, flooding a good sized living space just from adding a few drops to the smelling strip! A green heart note material, quite heady, bursting with intense green petitgrain character, full of watery citrus fresh nuances and noticeable woody undertones. The heart is more of the same but with noticeable clean leafy qualities and striking vegetative back notes.
Petitgrain water absolute aka orange brouts absolute is a solvent extracted material from orange leaves hydrolate. With its dark green colour and dark deep scent this absolute needs to be used with a light hand.
Used sparingly it imparts leafy freshness and naturalness to almost all compositions, can be used in colognes, citrus and wood accords, a must for building petitgrain and neroli notes, improving modern green accords and floral bouquets.”

Mouthwatery and fresh like the traditional citrus water of orange blossom we use for sweets here in Cyprus..so tempting to drink it..

I adore petitgrain, neroli, orange blossom.
I buy some of every one I can find – good or bad.
This is not something I have experienced before: this opens with cucumber, fragrant, fresh cucumber!
This lends this petitgrain, an open air feeling, a bigness about it. It is exotic, light. The citrus is still there: a light floral sweetness, but there is an added complexity.
This is diffusive w/o overwhelming, and it has some tenacity, it will last a good while on the strip.
Definitely a happy discovery, very unusual.

Leans towards Neroli and is beautiful with light woods. Feels a lot less “vegetable matter-vegetal” than Petitgrain essential oil. It gives lift and clarity in a blend.

I totally agree with Adam, this is initially a veeery green and pungent material. Its greeness is defenitely much more pronounced comparing to petigrain oil. It keeps a citrus profile, but here it is all about orange leaves!

The first moment – a dirty, damp, moldy cellar. Then scorched earth, clay for transplanting flowers and fresh forest after the rain. Yes, the dirty component in the good..it wants to be near flowers, near fruit, near wood..everywhere. Because it is so delightfully dirty and alluring at the same time that it wants to be everywhere. It’s a green monster and I really love this! 🙂

A perfect menage a trois between ethereal Floral, golden fruit Hesperide and bitter fresh Green Notes – exhillirating yet ‘chill and cool’, surprisingly powerful, both in radiance and tenacity, uplifting, childlike happy but with adult sensual weight. What is remarkable, due to its Absolute’ nature, this lovely gem bring freshness of the top – into heart and even base of perfume – if properly fixed with fine woods and roots (Sandalwood, Spikenard, resins. Frankincense (a bit) and this absolute (more than a bit) was a little relevation of a combination.

The velvetiest, the fruitiest, and the most floral multifaceted Petitgrain essence ever. More than that, it has indeed its own unique green overtone, a sort of unripe melon. And it does not have an occasional acrid note that comes up in Petitrain essential oil, particularly in Paraguai varieties.
Everybody loves Petitrain, and I used my bottle of it over friendly and fast – in every Hesperide accord, enhancing my shower gel, and easily on its own as a light summer perfume.
