26th April at 7.35pm: A quick update. Many parcels have left today. The situation is as follows, we still have one order left to process for the 10th (Paris retailer), one for the 11th and a lot more still for the 15th through to the 18th - mostly USA wholesale orders. The plan now is to work on orders across the weekend and by no later than Tuesday 30th - every order placed upto the 18th will be dispatched. Ideally they will all be out by Monday 29th but based on how I called it wrong recently I think it's better to call it for Tuesday. I'll update on order lead times for the 19th onwards on Monday 29th. It goes without saying that I am very sorry about the lead-time but like the lab and staff, it is now just a matter of a month or so before we are better organised, holding larger stocks of each aromatic, and in turn the lead-times will drastically improve going forward. Ok, back on Monday and thank you to everyone for the continued support. Thank you, Adam : )
23rd April at 4.10pm: Unfortunately, regarding the message below and lead-times, I called it wrong. My apologies. As such all orders placed upto the 15th - and about half of those placed on the 16th, will leave by Friday 26th. On Thursday no collections are possible by couriers as it's a national holiday here in Italy. On the subject of SDS, the company handling this for us, has written to me today, acknowledged more are owed to us (submitted in December and January) and that they are now working on producing the final lot of SDS for us. This includes Plantation, Wild and Jungle ouds that many of you ask about. Next, I have spent the past year (literally) sampling ambrette seed e.o and absolutes from various producers and resellers to no avail. They all smell really poor compared to what I carried. They are too nutty, too fatty, too vegetative, too lacklustre, falling away very fast, and really dont showcase the musky textured qualities of a top ambrette properly. Even the big naturals brands are all obtaining and selling sucky poor man's ambrette at the moment. Written as I have decided to move over to carrying ambrette CO2 and this will be in place until I can find a wow absolute and E.O again. CO2 is still not on par with what I had, but it offers a far better profile on the musky front than the abs and e.os in the market place right now. This CO2 will be in stock by early May. Next, we will put all the non.eu destinations we can supply to, back on our website on May 6th - so U.A.E, UK, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia. On the new product front, the next batch of 10 superstars will be released on the 20th May - lots more roses planned. And I will get started on expanding the bulk wholesale side of the business very soon - more aromatics and offered in larger weights as standard - likely upto a kilo on the website. Ok I will write again by Monday. Thank you, Adam : )
19th April at 5pm: Quick update to first say I have now added the following big ticket aromatics to the website: Italian Oakwood Absolute, Organic Georgian Rose Raduga Otto and finally Persian P.E.A Intense Rose (Otto). Orders, as I type with exception to 3 orders, every order placed up until the 11th has left with the couriers. By Monday 22nd, all orders placed up until the 14th will leave with couriers and I will type again across Monday with another update. Bulk Wholesale orders that still need to be manually typed and billed will be done so by Tuesday 23rd. Thank you, Adam : )
15th April at 5.30pm: Today I am running behind but I am happy to say that along with all E.U countries, we now can supply to the USA again. USA switched on just now and the Mysore Sandalwood 4 year aged E.O offer is extended for a week for USA clients to enjoy too. By Wednesday 17th all orders from the 9th April will be dispatched with DHL. Although we are rather full-on with orders at the moment, the lead time will improve significantly very shortly. Reason being since reopening the focus has been solely on building stocks up and we have staff coming on as well now (at last!). I will write again on Wednesday regarding lead times. This week my tasks are to get on top of the SDS we are owed by the company we have employed to handle this. And other than this I am adamant I will update the bulk wholesale list with more aromatics. Finally for now - the following 11 aromatics have recently been added to the site - French Rose Geranium E.O, Sandalwood Mysore E.O 4 Year Aged, Tuscan Olive Leaf Absolute, Mitti Attar (Petrichor), Persian Queen of Roses (Otto), Tomato Leaf Absolute, Oud Assami Skank E.O V.1, South Indian 10 Year Aged Vetiver E.O, Bengali Nagarmotha E.O, VIolet Leaf Concrete, Italian Helichrysum Absolute S.G. Thank you, Adam : )

Joseph Colbourne has this to say “One of the most distinct scents I’ve experienced from a rhizome: nutty, orris-like, reminiscent of fermenting leaves, whiskey, nuances of ginger, yet also notably lactonic. The first five minutes on the mouillette has autumnal notes of petrichor, forest floor, and wine tannins. This dries into a creamier, rich, slightly smoky, boozy, very whiskey-like lactone scent. Two hours in the scent is very much akin to oakwood absolute, however much more tannic and lactonic. As it continues to dry in the next several hours, a mellow, woody whiskey lactone effect lingers, with accents of orris, tree nuts, amyris, sandalwood, cognac, and faint wine tannins. What a remarkably unique material! I could see this paired with oakwood absolute and cognac to create a prominent whiskey note or a mixed forest (pine/deciduous) floor ambience.”

Well, this is really a very interesting material if you think that it has so many layers that Joseph detects whiskey, nuances of ginger, nuts and orris – and yes if you deeply study this rhizome.
But listen listen my dear friends – it is really incredible how this root CO2 reproduces exactly a Russian Banya smell.
Smoky fireplace, dried oak or birch tree branches with leaves that are immersed into a water – it’s a unique aroma, and this Rhatany Root CO2 reminds me the smell of Russian Banya at my grandfathers countryside.
I used to go all alone (i was then really a little curious girl) into that small but cosy building jus next to the main family house were the smell of burned woods that heated the ambiance some hours ago and those wet, but already drying Birch leaves on the floor were giving an incredible pleasure to my nostrils, and I was inhaling so deeply as if i wanted to get all of that odor into myself … What a wonderful memories.
So now i have it all in one bottle of this Rhatany Root CO2.
The same happened to me when i tried Siberian Fir CO2 select extra it brought me back to my joyful childhood.
I will absolutely try to use this Unique and curious material in creation of a very special fragrance – Russian men will love it a lot i think ;D, ;D, ;D

The scent is floral and sweet and at the same time winey and somewhat mysterious. It is a pleasant and delicate fragrance. I suppose it will do well in a feminine perfume, , but it wouldn’t look out of place in a masculine perfume either.

Beautiful and balsamic, a touch of smoky resinous dust in the base but then it turns into a gourmand fig rich dessert with a hint of whiskey touch. so beautiful..
