22nd March at 10.05am: Hello World, Adam here with a quick progress report! First thank you of course to the many who have placed orders, most appreciated. As I type should you place an order, please note the lead time is 5 working days before we will be able to assemble your order. This Sunday by 3pm Italy time I am going to release my Onycha Shells co-distilled in 33 year AGED Mysore sandalwood for sale. 10ml price is 350 Euros due to age of the sandalwood used. Also, if you are shopping around for Jasmine Absolute, Violet Absolute or Rose Absolute Turkish, my current batches are exceptionally beautiful – zero gassy aspects in the top, incredible body, excellent development and just so blissfully perfect from start to finish. For those musing on larger weights I can offer my Turkish Rose Absolute (batch TRSGAA01) at 2450 Euros plus vat per kilo and can offer this for 2300 Euros per kilo on a 3 kilo buy – 6900 euros plus vat. I will write again on Sunday afternoon. Thanks, Adam : )

Adam Michael has this to say “Deep green in colour, seaweed absolute exudes an aroma that will delight, dazzle and stimulate. The smell is exactly like fresh seaweed that has found its way onto the shore in the early morning, possessing that unique and refreshing ocean smell, very clean and invigorating with stunning aquatic green notes throughout. This material is of a paste to solid consistency and unless you are intending to dilute this in perfumers alcohol it is not wise to buy this material, instead a better option would be the seaweed colourless absolute we offer which is pourable.
Invaluable for the creation of marine accords, building ozonic and pine bases, and offers interesting modifying and boosting effects within moss creations and green top accords. Blends very well with mosses, pines, galbanum, vetiverts and incense wood.”

A tough one to dilute! If you don’t have a hot plate this paste absolute will make you work. Quick tip: Even if you use hot bath, in mere seconds this goes back to being sticky. I mean, even if it’s bathed and fluid in its own bottle, by the time you pick/drop to dilution bottle, it will become sticky again in 1-2 seconds due to sudden heat loss.
Pure form smell: Pungent, phenolic, seaweed, ash-leather nuances, salty and mossy.
10% dilution smell: Less pungent, fresh aspects more noticeable, less ash-leather, iodine bomb, with ammonia nuances. Very realistic seaweedy shore breeze, you have to like that dirtiness a bit.
I think in trace amounts this would add that throat scratching iodine feeling. Can’t wait! Great product Hermitage & Adam!

Masterpiece material! – I never imagined I woud use that term for a smell that I don’t particularly like. I think it is wise to dilute this heavily before evaluating as it is strong stuff. I had mine at 2% and it still was super strong and very diffusive. Ok, lets face it, the first 15 minuted are not pleasant (Smokey-harsh-leather-fishy-pungent-compact), but when you get beyond that, an aroma of leathery kombu appears. Much like the beautiful Oarweed Abs, which is only sold in sample size here. It is so realistic and fascinating. After that, the experience gets more and more bedazzeling. An ocean scene opens up in your minds eye with hard waves washing up seaweed baking in the sun. As the material evaporates the notes become fresher, cooler, more aquatic and ozonic and start to contain everything in this scenery: The water, many kinds of seaweeds, the fresh breeze, the sea mist, shells, fish, sand, salt…In the drydown I get gentle oyster mineralic notes and the freshest sea foam. SUPER complex, diffusive, roomfilling, long lived and in that sense, very economical. Much better that the “colorless abs” also offered here, in my opinion. You just have to be prepared to dilute the whole thing at once, at 20% for instance, you will never use it in a higher consentration anyways. its very sticky and dark and not pourable at all. But it’s all worth it. This is a long review but I just have to state, as a person who mainly works with aquatic notes and seaweeds ONLY for clients I do bespoke perfumery for, as I don’t enjoy these aromas usually for myself, this one took me on a journey an may have triggered something in me, made me eager to explore and enjoy marine aromas more!
