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 : )

Adam Michael has this to say “The aroma is quite a unique experience, immensely butter sweet, with fresh earthy rhizome character, and delicate sweet spice nuances. Produced by steam distilling the rhizomes and leaves.
Indian sweet flag oil generally contains a therapeutically prized constituent called beta asarone and generally it is present in Indian material at around 70% of the oil. Within perfumery this material is a must for gourmand accords, spice accords, pairs very well with butter CO2, ginger oils and is useful material for building ylang ylang notes.”

Sweet flag is absolutely revolting. I thought perhaps that it would be interesting to work with something that’s described to have a “fresh earthy rhizome character” perhaps as a replacement for or a pairing to orris, but what awaited me was not at all anything along those lines.
This is stink bug essence bottled. If you are familiar with this pest that populates Europe during the hotter months then you can already imagine that reviling secretion they emit should they land on your hand. There’s also an element of pond plant to it, like the watery stalk of a bulrush but paired with the stink bug secretion this essential oil is one that should be avoided at all cost.

Hello Gergely, what a review!! Sweet Flag definitely doesn’t smell of rose petals and fragrant jasmine flowers! It is a little bit on the stinky side, its aroma profile however is fairly unique and as you will soon find out as your journey in perfumery materials continues, even the worst stinkers can contribute a great deal to the beauty and magic of a perfume, adding depth and mystery to the composition. If you haven’t tried it yet, I think civet might shock you even more, and yet it is one of the most transformative materials you can add to a perfume (in small amounts!). Adam 🙂
