14th May - Quick update: Yesterday I started updating the product listings. So far the sandalwood and oud categories have been addressed - some new imagery, wholesale options on more of the sandalwoods and ouds, tweaks to content, and I have updated the age of these aromatics as well. Price increases on Cambodi oud and Thai Fruit Spice oud due to the age of these aromatics. Next, due to many requests, we are going to reintroduce sample sets by the weekend. We will offer rose, sandalwood and oud sample sets. Next, until May 31st we are trialling a lower shipping rate to the UK. On orders of 350 Euros or more, UK shipping drops from 38.99 to 12.99 Euros with UPS. Next, across June we will get a Facebook competition up and running. Also yesterday I added an Ambrette CO2 to the shop. This is really special product as first it was produced in 2022 - so before the ambrette crisis - and second profile wise the musk tonalities are exceptionally rounded, smooth, clean, powerful and longlisting with zero fatty aspects. Order lead-time now in hand at 3 working days too : ) Thanks, Adam : ) PS - Please can I ask clients to leave reviews if possible as it helps improve the website experience for others greatly. Thank you.

Adam Michael has this to say “If you smell from the bottle it’s a wow material, Oriental tobacco absolute is strong, masculine, very distinctive, hay, woody, virginian cedarwood, cigar rich, and packing real punch. However it’s a different animal altogether on the smelling strip. The first thing I notice is how extraordinarily dry this material is. Also to my nose this aroma is reminiscent of smelling my old army kitbag – giving off a very heavy musty cotton smell. The longevity is not as impressive as the burley or virginia varieties, lasting for two days and drying out with musty hay notes and some tonka bean powdery sweetness.
Produced by solvent extracting dried tobacco leaves (Oriental variety), viscous liquid and the colour is dark greenish brown to black-brown.”

This is fantastic. The above description is very accurate. My opinion is that this is drier and slightly spicier than the Burley, and that Oriental Tobacco is perhaps closer to a well-stored cigar or tobacco leaves, although much more potent! Whereas the Burley is closer to moist/fermenting tobacco leaves.
However I have not experienced the Virginian Tobacco!
