I’m very proud to be a part of the AromaSublime team and to have access to essential oils and aromatics of this quality. I have been fortunate to witness first hand Tony and Tha’s commitment to quality in the world of artisanal Oud, sandalwood, and other fine natural aromatics and essential oils, and i’m honoured to be working with them. I have really fallen in love with Oud, Sandalwood, and Rose oil in recent years, not only as perfumes but as powerful medicines for body and spirit. Connecting with Tony and Tha is an ongoing education for me in what the finest pure and natural essential oils should be. Aromas that are a world apart from anything I had previously encountered. I hope your will check out the mini-documentary I produced for Aroma Sublime as well as our website. You can order direct from the website and see the complete inventory of products or purchase a limited selection of products from my Etsy shop.

Our first meeting at the plantation in the Vietnam countryside in August 2019.

Since our first meeting a lot has happened. Besides the new website and mini-documentary, on a return visit in January 2020 I brought 10 kilos of Japanese Sandalwood to distill. Although I have a strong background in essential oils I had never actually made my own! This would be my very first distillation. What a perfect first experience this was! I could not have asked for better teachers. And the raw material and finished product is a very special one, close to my heart. (more on that in another post!)

“ In the Vietnamese countryside, right on the Cambodian border, Tony Bolton and his wife Tha live right in the heart of premium wild agarwood country. Naturally occurring wild forest agarwood produces the very best Oud oil in the world. Tony’s many years of distillation experience and technical expertise, combines perfectly with wife Tha’s birthplace connection to the land and the community here. Oud oils and products made with love and commitment to tradition. No additives, no fancy corporate marketing, and no inflated prices. Authentic small-batch Artisanal Oud Oils of rare distinction. Absolutely. Sublime. ”
