7th November at 11.35am. Update. First, Hermitage Oils website is now closed for the rest of 2023. No more orders are being accepted and all countries have been removed from the website at checkout, to prevent orders from being placed whilst we are off work. Apologies if I sound like a broken record, but politely I have received so many emails asking about placing orders already. I am now putting an out of office message in place on the email and website contact page. As soon as all orders have been delivered - we are then properly off work for the rest of 2023. Sincerely, we need a proper break as the stress of this year has become too great. On a brighter note, the following SDS are now uploaded onto the website and available to clients by logging in to your account and going to the section titled SDS (assuming you have purchased the product) ... Blue Lotus Absolute, Bergamot Mint E.O, Clove Bud Absolute, Apple Liquid, Chamomile Roman E.O, Cognac Green Signature Gold E.O, Costus Root E.O, Eucalyptus Absolute, Cocoa Absolute Signature Gold, Geranium Chinese E.O, Frankincense Rivae E.O, Buddha Wood E.O and Cedarwood Himalayan E.O. The business handling the conversion still needs to hand over about 60 more SDS and as we receive them, they will be uploaded onto the website. Thank you, Adam : )
Adam Michael has this to say “The top note of this Turkish rose absolute exudes a joyous diffusive rose-honey note with immensely deep rose character in the heart and beautiful rose warmth within the base notes. This absolute is grown in Isparta, also known as the Rose District and located in the south west part of Anatolia.
This Turkish rose absolute is rose red in colour, of a pourable viscosity and essential for building rose bases, improving rosy florals, carnation bases, developing oriental bases, fougere, chypre etc. Also provides interesting effects within spice notes and blends especially well with most jasmine materials.”

This Turkish Rose absolute disappeared in my blends too quickly! Turkish Damask rose is the closest by scent to that unforgettable scent of summer rose garden, which is so difficult to repeat in perfume. Green and fresh, rosy and spicy, dewy and subtly sweet. Have you ever tried to nibble damask rose petal standing there in the rose garden? This is exactly it. The scent of Turkush rose absolute is all over you – in you nose, and mouth, and in your head, and in your soul.
Watching Golden red drop slowly swelling out and forming into shape before falling into the vial is mesmerising. Not too slow, not too quick, just perfect).

Love it. It goes quite nicely with ouds and rose ottos, tuberose and gardenia absolutes, oth of which quite stunning too.
It has the sweetness – a typical feature with all rose absolutes I have tried from various regions (referring to Rosa damascena only). The spicy and green top note is not common thing in rose absolutes. So it goes really nicely simply with rose ottos, especially if you want to enjoy a more complete rose in an intense form for a longer time. In other words, imho, if you want to make an all natural rose attar/perfume that is dark and more sophisticated, this is worth trying.
It can be quite dark too – especially if you add some birch tar, along with your typical rose otto and Indian oud combination. The possibilities are endless.

Rose in all its natural fulsomeness, heady and dense, …a pure, pure, rose, … a walk through an English rose garden in late June, red roses fill the air with their velvety warmth, and as their dew evaporates, a dense green spicy pepperiness develops all around.
Soon this rose gives even more of itself: sweet lychees and honeyed mangoes; a rose-infused exotic fruit salad, inhaled through a powdery cinnamon-rose veil.
This exquisite Turkish Rose Absolute has such depth, longevity and possibilities. I wear it on its own, but it’s also very special in edgier creations, alongside dark resins, patchouli and oakmoss.

Body for days…..
Definitely a fullbody rose with all the right notes in all the right places.
It goes through so many stages and lasts all day ending with classic sweet deep narcotic rose.
Lush and addictive:)

I couldn’t imagine that this absolute would be so different from any other rose absolute i bought from hermitage store..honeyed ,warm,sunny fresh fruit beauty..almost like rose otto oil..excellent

The image that this rose absolute evokes to me is a green garden were i have just placed a vase of roses and carnation flowers next to a jar filled with spices, making a composition for a painting.
Its bitter sweet notes are in a wonderful harmony with a perfect rose scent, a very special rose – unique, complex and gorgeously multilayered.
You can smell it again and again and never get tired – so much it is amazingly different from other rose absolutes.
Not too sweet, not too spicy, very very Rosy and really persistent.
Can detect a slight cinnamon note as well as carnation in a background.
I would call it a “Perfect rose in a perfect world”.
Rich, sensual, hypnotic – a Number one.

Adam, you can’t take this gold out of the offer! Listen to me if you don’t want to upset me! To describe it in words is a crime. Because there are no words to describe this rose beauty and energy. Everyone – order, do not expect a review from another, you need to try.!

Quite simply the best rose absolute.
It’s so pure but heady and totally addictive.
Just this alone makes the most beautiful perfume.
Once you have had this you won’t be able to have another.
Thank you hermitage.
The highest quality oils I have used since becoming an aromatherapist over 25 years ago.
To read your descriptions is like reading poetry too.
Please never change.

A classic all-around staple, that allows me to practice a motto; Aucun parfum ne va sans Rose!
It goes every where – as a centre for Rose Soliflore perfume, or as a foundation for rich floral bouquest, or bringing a smoothing finish for for spices and bitter herbs, or in bath tub, and even making my morning rose-infused tea; water vapor and tea bring the aroma to a full natural impression of rose garden. Delightful and accessible.

This scent is lovely though undiluted it lingers for about 15 minutes. I do love the scent and I will use it in perfumes with oud, as a top note. I was confused, I always thought absolutes linger longer because they are thicker, but apparently the rose oils have more longevity. As a top note it works well and considering the price it is a good buy. Great for cosmetics like rose water or a cream.
