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 : )

Adam Michael has this to say ” I absolutely love Hermitage spearmint, green, herbaceous, candy sweet, cooling, bubble gum minty. This is just like smelling the leaves of spearmint or chewing spearmint flavoured gum. Blend with peppermint for the double mint effect, adds unique freshness to florals, imparts unique effects into lavender blends and can be useful for further building jasmine notes.
Produced by steam distillation of the flowering tops and leaves, pale yellow in colour and of of a pourable viscosity. In aromatherapy and due to the gentle aroma, spearmint is often preferred by aromatherapists to peppermint when treating children and spearmint is good in massage for settling upset stomachs. Overall spearmint is a cheerful, uplifting and energising aroma that is lovely added to the oil burner.”

Mauricio (verified owner) –
My relationship with Mint is that of an acolyte to a venerable guru: never fully comfortable, often misleading, essentially life-changing and invariably respectful. I eat Peppermint leaves, drink its tea and apply its essential oil on the skin on a daily basis to deal with migraines and heartburn. This scent is ingrained in my sleep, my breath and my heart.
Thus, it was a bit of a shock when I first sniffed this offering. Spearmint has most of the qualities I associate with Peppermint, but is, at the same time, wholly different. It is, as one might guess, less harsh and it hides, underneath a cloud of menthol and sweet herbal vapors, a beautiful anisic foundation. This, alone, makes it more suitable for perfumery than the frequently utilitarian Peppermint (which I adore, but faces the hardship of being everywhere, from candies to toothpaste).
I’ve tried this Spearmint with Patchouli, Ylang Ylang Grades 1 and 3, Apple Liquid, Lime, Oakmoss, and Vanilla, with good results all along the board. I advise using it with a light hand in order to add layers to other aromas and not as a centerpiece, due to its high relative strength and distinctive odor profile. It’s a superb top note that lingers into the heart phase, becoming more akin to Marjoram Sweet and licorice as the time passes.
