17th March Update at 9.45pm: All retail orders on our books placed between 6th to 13th March will be dispached by no later than the 19th March. All retail orders placed between 14th to 17th March will be dispatched by no later than the 22nd March. Thank you, Adam )
8th February Update at 1.40pm: The website has now been tweaked with the message below. Until early May we now supply to European Union countries only. By early May we will be better organised and able to handle a much larger workload per day. Once in place, USA, Hong Kong and United Arab Emirates will be switched back on. I have also updated the FAQ and mention this within that page. On the new product front, within the next 3 weeks, I am releasing Tuscan Green Olive Absolute Signature Gold, this project has been two years in the making, the end result is the most incredible olive absolute you will ever experience - it is light years superior to the Egyptian offering we and others carry. I am also going to release Italian Oakwood absolute, another custom production for Hermitage, plus I'll introduce Violet Leaf Concrete, and at least one of my 5 new Persian Rose Ottos for sale. If time allows I am going to release a wonderful Mitti Attar and two new Nagarmotha offerings as I want to put together a collection for Nagarmotha to showcase the vast differences in profile you can obtain. And finally I am definitely going to ramp up the wholesale list even further by introducing many more of our existing aromatics this month with wholesale options. Thank you and I will write again now here across early next week. Adam : )

Mark Evans has this to say “This natural extract of rhodinol from citronella has a bright, petal fresh, wonderfully well-balanced and rounded rose fragrance. I would consider this an essential ingredient for the creation of any rose accord and also perfect to use just by itself when needing to integrate a beautiful, true to life rose into other florals or pretty much any style of perfume for any function.
Rhodinol natural isolate is often named laevo-citronellol (l-citronellol) as that is its main component along with geraniol. Getting the balance of these two molecules correct is what makes a great rose aroma – too much of one or the other can result in a scratchy, harsh lemony note.
There are a select few flowers that have been the foundation stones for perfumery throughout the ages – orange blossom, muguet and jasmine – but the rose has been and continues to be the most essential. Many perfumers have said that they add a little rose in everything they do and I am no exception. We are lucky to have access to this incredibly well produced, all natural isolate to achieve this aim beautifully.”
Extracted from citronella essential oil.

This material to me smells pretty much like very clean and rounded citronella, and not very much like a rose. Perhaps it only begins to create the rose impression when paired with the proper geranium or geraniol, as the description states.
I would have given three or even two stars, were it not for the magic that occurs in the drydown when worn neat on the skin. Suddenly, the distinctive citronella note fades, and what surfaces is a powerful vaporous note that is at once juicy, bitter, and resinous, with hints of sweet ether like you’d find in coffee blossom absolute or in freshly crushed Mexican sage flowers. The overall effect is something I’ve only experienced with certain Ouds, and I quite like it. I wish it were that way from the start.
In any case, if you’re looking for something to create a rose accord, then I hope you know what you’re doing.

This is a true beauty : you will get the super fresh essence of the best rose oil. Try to mix it with a heavy floral heart (jasmine & ylang) or even a light one (neroli & rose). This wil get you a superb and sweet floral heart.
