25th March at 13.10pm: Apologies but my health has gone backwards rapidly in the past few days. After a conversation with Eleonora, at this moment running Hermitage is too much for us. Therefore the countries have all been temporarily removed and no orders can be placed. Please note orders received upto the time of this message will all be dispatched by today. Earlier messages now deleted from the orange banner but note I hope by mid to late next week I can get involved again with the business and reopen the website to E.U countries. New product releases, I have written content for five new aromatics and the plan was, and still is, to get to ten, and release them all in one lot. This will happen across early April. At the sametime the lab is finished, we have set up and we will get staff employed. Written as my own objective this year for the business remains the same, that being to end the stop start and get Hermitage in a position whereby it continues to flourish with or without my daily involvement. Thank you, Adam : | PS - We will reply to emails we may receive upon our return.

Eleonora Scalseggi has this to say “Rarely heard of by the general public, vanilla pompona is the third vanilla species extensively cultivated all over the world along with the better-known Vanilla planifolia and Vanilla tahitensis. Pompona vanilla is one of the most floral vanillas, sometimes said to be reminiscent of cherry blossoms and boasting a naturally high vanillin content.
Aromatically close to the tahitensis offering but more cost effective, this vanilla pompona tincture displays the most playful plasticine notes, sparkling vanillin sweetness and almost none of the darker, woodier notes that one normally associates with natural Bourbon vanilla. It is instead a much lighter material with simpler child-like qualities, perfect to impart a very natural vanillin scent to any perfume composition whilst leaving out any undesired darker woody notes.
Tinctured in perfumer’s alcohol at 15% for ensuring that no cloudiness issues are caused and this batch, at the time of writing (04/09/20) has been patiently matured for 8 months resulting in a fully mellowed aroma profile.”
Botanical name: Vanilla pompona

This material is a very well-rounded natural vanilla from the start. It captures the sweet caramel-like characteristic odor of the vanilla bourbon absolute heart note or even some chocolate aspects. It is smooth, fulfilling, rich, sweet vanilla, perfectly blended with no particular edgy odor peaks. It is more aromatic that the Tahitian vanilla and also more rounded, it’s like having a powerful benzoate in its molecules. It’s the perfect blender for vanilla-based compositions to boost naturalness of the vanilla aspect of the perfume.

Scrumptious and seductive, well-rounded and complex delicious vanilla that is easy on the budget and will give you nuances of Tahitian material at a fraction of the cost.
