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 “Vetiver Heart essential oil is produced by fractionation which means in this instance that the essential oil (steam distilled from the roots/rhizomes) is rectified by running it through a fractionating column.
The fractions are collected, and it is largely the grassy and rooty fractions that are blended back together. This results in a material mostly free from the woody aspects. The woody notes that are still present are somewhat reminiscent of smelling pure Cambodian oud. The grassy and rooty aroma generally found more within the heart notes of vetiver materials is the dominant aroma of this material throughout its development.
Vetiver Heart essential oil is so incredible that it is a luxury perfume in its own right. Provides a fantastic fixative effect, provides rich body to Cambodian oud accords, pairs beautifully with both patchouli and sandalwood naturals, a must for heavier Oriental bases and amber notes and overall I highly recommend this material.”
We have now created our own vetiver collection page.
Botanical Name: Vetiveria zizanioides
Origin: Haiti

Aromagolic (verified owner) –
The aroma is very rich, with many nuances that replace each other in the process of evaporation. Soft, unlike ordinary varieties. It goes well with other aromas, especially woody and citrus. A valuable find for oriental bouquets.

Fantastic vetiver ! , not earthy , tenacios, clean , enhances chypre or oriental perfumes
g.s.oldenkamp (verified owner) –
I love vetiver and this one is my favorite! It is so fresh and a little sweet too.
Sean M (verified owner) –
This is my first experience with vetiver outside of a blended perfume and I can say without a doubt that is one of my favorite materials now.
On first draw, the scent hits me is as if Cupressus funebris(Chinese cedarwood(cypress) had a child with young Santalum austrocaledonicum(Sandalwood) , after some time it has a slightly sweet, nutty note comparable to madacamia nuts & a hidden cocoa nuance. Very tenacious, & a wonderful fixative, can fit in a variety of blends, chypre being the best bet, but that may not be the most subjective opinion considering my affinity for wood & musk.
