26th April at 7.35pm: A quick update. Many parcels have left today. The situation is as follows, we still have one order left to process for the 10th (Paris retailer), one for the 11th and a lot more still for the 15th through to the 18th - mostly USA wholesale orders. The plan now is to work on orders across the weekend and by no later than Tuesday 30th - every order placed upto the 18th will be dispatched. Ideally they will all be out by Monday 29th but based on how I called it wrong recently I think it's better to call it for Tuesday. I'll update on order lead times for the 19th onwards on Monday 29th. It goes without saying that I am very sorry about the lead-time but like the lab and staff, it is now just a matter of a month or so before we are better organised, holding larger stocks of each aromatic, and in turn the lead-times will drastically improve going forward. Ok, back on Monday and thank you to everyone for the continued support. Thank you, Adam : )
23rd April at 4.10pm: Unfortunately, regarding the message below and lead-times, I called it wrong. My apologies. As such all orders placed upto the 15th - and about half of those placed on the 16th, will leave by Friday 26th. On Thursday no collections are possible by couriers as it's a national holiday here in Italy. On the subject of SDS, the company handling this for us, has written to me today, acknowledged more are owed to us (submitted in December and January) and that they are now working on producing the final lot of SDS for us. This includes Plantation, Wild and Jungle ouds that many of you ask about. Next, I have spent the past year (literally) sampling ambrette seed e.o and absolutes from various producers and resellers to no avail. They all smell really poor compared to what I carried. They are too nutty, too fatty, too vegetative, too lacklustre, falling away very fast, and really dont showcase the musky textured qualities of a top ambrette properly. Even the big naturals brands are all obtaining and selling sucky poor man's ambrette at the moment. Written as I have decided to move over to carrying ambrette CO2 and this will be in place until I can find a wow absolute and E.O again. CO2 is still not on par with what I had, but it offers a far better profile on the musky front than the abs and e.os in the market place right now. This CO2 will be in stock by early May. Next, we will put all the non.eu destinations we can supply to, back on our website on May 6th - so U.A.E, UK, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Australia. On the new product front, the next batch of 10 superstars will be released on the 20th May - lots more roses planned. And I will get started on expanding the bulk wholesale side of the business very soon - more aromatics and offered in larger weights as standard - likely upto a kilo on the website. Ok I will write again by Monday. Thank you, Adam : )
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 “Smelling this Zdravetz CO2 solely from the bottle you are greeted with intense richly charged resinous notes, reminiscent of a walk in a Mediterranean scrub along the shore and heated by the sun. On the strip the smell is very similar whilst also exuding fruit, floral and light green qualities with a noticeable woody eucalyptus note for good measure. Quite quickly the Mediterranean scrub nuances are back and go on to become the spine of this aroma along with soft sweet fruit nuances and deeply suave floral qualities. The dry down is very fruit orientated.
Zdravetz CO2 is aromatically light years in front of the regular essential oil (which is muted by comparison in my humble opinion) and is a very beautiful resinous aroma throughout that can be useful for building frankincense themed church accords, especially those that are serrata based as the fruity notes within the Zradvet bind very well with the zesty aspects of the serrata material. Also of course a must for building Mediterranean forest notes and I am finding use for this material within an experimental orange blossom attar I am building, the floral qualities of both sing in total harmony with each other.”

Rich woody note, somewhat smoky and with an acidic, arnica-like edge. Close kinship with bois des landes and its predecessor, pinewood natural.

I have now obtained some Bulgarian zdravetz for comparison. In the case of this particular sample, a semi-solid mass which bears the label zdravetz, the scent of undergrowth and autumnal bracken which characterises the CO2 product is much less in evidence. The odour is milder and in the direction of ordinary geranium. Muted is right. So the CO2 product is a lot more interesting for perfumery, the only drawback being its lack of miscibility with alcohol.

This smells incredible, rich and sumptuous, floral with the scent of dried sweat on skin after sex. Probably one of my favourite materials to work with after ordering a small sample; I’ll need to get a full bottle soon.

WOW! My goodness this smells good!
Having used Bulgarian steam distilled Zdravetz for skincare serums and natural sun protection, I though I knew it. But no.
After reading Adams description of this particular Co2 version it made me curious, but for one reason or another it never managed to get to me before now. And what a surprise! I honestly can’t understand how it even can be the same plant material as the aromatic qualities are so different. When the steam distilled material I am familiar with has kind of a dryish, woody and almost slightly sour aspect to it, this Zdravetz Co2 is fresher, sweeter, fruitier and much, much brighter.
Oh, what a delight! This Co2 sings! To me it is clarifying, as if opening up the spirit to a new world. And when I have never understood the fuzz about Zdravetz in perfumery before, I now do. Can’t wait to play around with this one.
Thank you so much for illuminating me!

Zdravez – a fields of flowers warmed by the Sun, herbs my grandmother taught me to collect. Yes this is what i can smell after 7 days of persistence of this Zdravez CO2 on the strip – it’s unbelievable how log does it last. Dried medicinal herbs, dried yellow jasmine flowers (gelsemium sempervirens), a hint of honey – all this i can feel when it dries down – and it’s jus Woooowww – so relaxing.
During first hours on a perfumers strip i could even feel a hint of a pleasant smoky note – as if in the morning i could smell already cold fire place odor where in the evening some oak wood was burning while warming a cosy atmosphere.
Absolutely gorgeous – i would love my linen smell like this Zdravez – it reminds me home – sweet home 🙂 🙂 :).
