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 “Tunisia orange blossom absolute is refreshing, floral, happy and uplifting with soft playful bitter orange nuances dancing on a delicate bed of herbaceous wonderment. Whilst I look upon the essential oil as a top note, I personally regard this absolute as an intensely refreshing heart note that really sings, shines and sparkles. The therapeutic uses can be considered similar to neroli essential oil. It is also effective at calming the nerves and soothing the soul. When diluted in carrier oil and massaged down the jaw line this may benefit those who suffer with insomnia. The colour of this solvent extracted material is dark orange-brown and of a slightly thick but pourable viscosity.”
The leaves from this tree provide Petitgrain, the fruit peel provides us with Bitter Orange, one tonne of flowers provide roughly 1 kilo of Neroli which is obtained via steam distillation. A by-product follows in the form of Orange Flower Water. And when the Orange Flower Water oil compounds are extracted we get a product known as Orange Flower Water Absolute. If the flowers are solvent extracted we get two further materials – Orange Flower Concrete and Orange Blossom Absolute.
Botanical Name: Citrus aurantium var. amara

“Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your ears” … as Shakespeare writes in his Antony’s speech.
I have to tell you that this Tunisian orange blossom absolute is a Pure and Marvelous Luxury in an amber glass bottle. Speechless and amazed by its beauty.
The opening is very rich and very intense herbaceous notes with floral presence – for me it smells real mandarin or orange blossom exposed to a heat of spring sun.
Reminds me of citruses, fresh roses and freesias together with seductive jasmine in a beautiful geometrical garden next to an ancient castle.
It is simply sublime with a hint of neroli in it.
For me it is like breathing a soul of the universe itself.
It’s tenacious, it’s warm, it’s sweet and bitter at the same time – like yin and yang.
Mysterious, hypnotic, erotic, aphrodisiac scent.
It lasts for days on a blotter and on its dry down it softens to a calming floral bouquet in a brides hands.
For me it’s a perfume by its own – anyway an absolute Must in my compositions – it adds such a great feeling of happiness as if you were dancing in an opened field with joy at the very first moment you really felt in love.
I could splash it all over my body every single day and never be tiered of this Magic of Nature.
It’s worth of princesses and queens.
I simply love the dance of atoms in this unique composition of its molecules.
It is the most beautiful music of Orange Flowers … The music i will never stop listening to.
Eleonora, Adam – again and again – You both are Number One .
