Guest guest Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 Hi I use Hermitage Oils (www.hermitageoils.com), based in the UK, for quite a few of my oils. They have a very wide selection and lots of info on the site, and the guy who runs it is really helpful. They have a minimum order but then free worldwide postage. Kind regards, Maggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Maggie, Id be a bit wary of this supplier....they have something called " bread oil " listed, and say about it: * " At the moment I am still trying to get more information on this so just want to say for now it is not an essential oil and this is why it has no botanical name – not from a plant. Its use is probably suited to a perfumer, however this is of a murky brown colour, smells lovely, like when you bake homemade bread and add too much yeast to your bowl! " * If they don't know what it is, or what it's made of, why are they selling it?????? Makes me wonder about everything else they sell now too...Gardenia for instance is as rare as hens teeth...and Chinese oils are notorious for being either artificial or at least adulterated.... http://www.perfumebynature.com.au Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How odd. Ambrosia, good catch. Right - how can they sell something they can't ID?! I've purchased from them in the past, and their stuff is OK, not great. Cedrat was kind of flat, forget the others, so that means I wasn't knocked out by the quality. About the gardenia - there is a lot of gardenia coming out of China, and a lot of it is real. However, they're using *dried* gardenias as the raw material, and the concrete and absolute are quite disappointing if you're looking for a real gardenia scent, but usable for a nice floral heart accord.
