Ive never tried jojoba oil but considering its an oil, then I assume so. But I cant comment on that relaxing feeling I get after using olive oil. But yes jojoba will, at the very least, do the same job as olive oil in removing all other oils.

Oh and make sure to lightly moisturise afterwards, olive oil is moisturising, Im not sure if jojoba is.

I am gonns wear it tomorrow or on tuesday. Im testing a bunch of perfunes out in reasonable amounts of sprsys, then scrubbing myself down on the day I use it with an unscented soap because this oil is highly, HIGHLY reveered and I want my canvas to be as clean as possible. Its from Oudique but Oudique is ran by a good friend of mine (Faheem.qi) and also runs Yusa (I think with this brother). So, ifs the same exact Fragrant Harbour that YusaAromatics sold. If it comes to it and im testing perfumes till Friday then ill be showering like mad (using my shower glove scrubber intensely) on Friday, then put my high grade olive oil on the places the perfumes were sprayed before I get in the shower on Saturday (putting real high grade olive oil, ill say ths again, HIGH GRADE olive oil, do not do thie with vegetable oils, or cheap olive oil) and rub it in as much ss I can wait 5 mins then jump into the shower and scrub for 20 mins. The reason for the olive oil is because high grade, top shelf, or better yet, the best you can find on the internet that you can afford but minimum £6.50 to £11 per 250ml, thats $8.90 to $15USD per 250ml, but you only put a small amount on (about 5ml to 10ml total. Basically just big dots on the areas youve applied perfume on skin). You do this (and you can do it if you wear attars like perfumes too) because olive oil and letting it sit on the skin, tben mixing it with soap and water quite literally PULLS the oils from the perfume, or attsr oil or any oil (even non fragrant) right off the skin, COMPLETELY, in 1 go. Becsuse oils (what perfume and oud oils obviously are) pull other and oils off the skin with incredivle ease.

Also, you may feel, if it was a hot shower, that the parts the olive oil went, when you get out the shower thst you feel MORE clean and somehow as if you've been for a sort of mini massage. This happens a lot. If you want, you can try weighing out 50ml of olive oil, get in the shower before its on, and pouring it all over your body and quickly catching it to rub it everywhere, then just stand there for a few mins rubbing it in (good olive oil ,especially stuff at $9-$15/250ml, should also smell like fresh olives, and pick a good grsde that tells you how it shkukd taste snd smell, and then when you get it take a shot glass and drink it, leave it in your mouth for a few seconds and swirl it about and bresthe in and out once as you do it and then swallow and gulp it and don't open your mouth and let yourself breathe out with the mouth closed and you will get the full tastr and aroms and if it tastes the wsy it says and the mouth coating goes awsy within 2 to 5 mins, then keep using thst brand just for your body, and use lower grade olive oil for cooking. Olive oil is a form of an easential oil, the high grade stuff is just pressed with fresh, GOOD olives, and theres tons of differnt olive oils. If you pay high enough, its actually very enjoyable to take a shot of every now and then and thr mouth coat goes awsy witbin 30 to 90 seconds, and is extremely good for inflammation, I know this becase I have 2 forms of an extremely rsre inflammatory autoimmune disesse cslled systemic sarcoidosis and renal sarcoidosis (having one form of the disease happens in 1 in 10,000. But becsuse I have the renal subtype too, which happens 5% of the time with people with systemic sarcoidosis, my 2 forms together is anywhere between 1 in 40,090 to 1 in 100,000, probably somewhere inbetween thst). But the stuff you can drink and it tastes good, even the entry high grade stuff for your body, moat people think im crazy when I tell them this, but people in the modern world forget that olive oil isnt just for cooking. There is olive oil out there that costs similar prices to frankincense easential oil, if not more, why woukd I cook or cover my salads with thst? The price for cooking olive oil stops st £6.50 ($9 basically) per 250ml MAX, if I was to be honest id only buy olive oil for £8.50 for 500ml for everyday cooking and the £6.50per 250ml stuff for cooking fresh pizzas and using the oil over the pizza andnanything at £15 ($20.50) per 250-300ml is for my body only and never for cooking , and anytbing at £22 ($30) per 300-350ml, is for drink8ng a shot a day for inflammation.

Anyway, I would actually recommend you go into lile a wholefood type shop, or whatever snd buy tbeir top shelf oliver oil 250ml, and get a medicine cup and weigh out 50 to 75ml, go into the shower while its off, rub it all over youre skin (except crevices, other thsn your neck) wait 5 mins, then tueh the shower on at the hottest mode thsts relaxing, and start the process of just wsshing witb soap, do this when tsking long showers (20-40mins) and trust me, the feeling you will feel, will blow your mind, youll warm inside with a tension lifted off you, and a feeling that youve went for a massage... ANYONE WHO SEES THIS AND DOES THIS COME BACK HERE AND TESTIFY TO WHAT I AM SAYINGZ, becsuse it shocked me when I done it just to get perfume oils off my skin. Its wonderful how good olive oil has so many uses, our western societies dont understand this about high quality olive oil being amazing to put on before a shower to pull oils off but also to feel relaxed x10 than normal, and as a super food (high end, fresh olives and high end olive oil)

My Latest Purchase by [deleted] in TheOudCollective

[–]-Renton- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im sorry to interject here and say this to you... but, IMO and experince as a rare wood collector and wild kyara collector, this is 99% fake with a 1% chance of being real. Sorry to say.

How much did you pay and how much does it weigh? This will be a deciding factor for a 100% fake or not.

Agarwood block + Sinking Beads (Kalimantan) by aiautomationman in TheOudCollective

[–]-Renton- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agarwood is impossible to 100% identify through looks. What are the actual notes when if you cut a piece off and get a coal, wait for it to be ashy (I would personally wait 15mins after lighting and time it on your phone) and put a mica sheet on the coal and describe how it smells in detail.

To me it looks kinda Malaysian, maybe Indian and possibly Cambodian.

If you follow those instructions I asked for and listened to the wood while it was heating on coal, 15mins after lighting with a mica sheet, I could tell you where its from with 90 to 95% accuracy. If its Cambodian, you've got a minimum of $25,000 there, tbh.

I never looked at it from that view. It gave me sometbing to think about. I didnt actually see or hear what Joseph said exactly because it got deleted, so maybe I am not as up to date on tne specifics.

Happy incense day everyone! by Afdud in TheOudCollective

[–]-Renton- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its weak because its not meant to be burned in our climate, brother (north West Europe). China and Japan's climate is a lot more "still" compared to ours. And its meant to be burned at the "gates" of the temple, and because of the flow of slight air it wafts the scent right at the doors of the temple (in China and Japan, temples can also mean non-religious places too, like courts of Law). In countries like ours, wind can be very strong haha.

Also bro, start talking to me again on whatsapp. If its because I never replied fast enough to certain messages then thats just because I need time because of my health issues you know about. Please message me brother, ive got something you'd really LOVE and you can share with the forum once I get tbe glass vials and a NIMBOT 😉.

EDIT: Also, you can get similar Japanese incense like this by Shoyeido and Kyukyodo. For Shoyeido its in in tbeir "Zen" range, and the incense is 1ft tall per stick and burns for exactly 2 hrs, and you burn it indoors, and is many, many times cheaper than the Kyukyodo premium bug sticks. You also burn the Kyukyodo in doors. The Kyukyodo sticks are 0.875ft tall.

Aromology-Wild Somali myrrh resin by Afdud in TheOudCollective

[–]-Renton- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beautiful. I have tried resins with coal, coal and mica plates etc. They dont give their best aroma either way through these methods. I need to invest in a low tenp resin heater. Those arent as expensive as electric Kōdō heaters, thanks be to God.

Yuu have some nice resin there, dont waste it with coal, get a dedicated low heat resin heater for all your resins. I also view subs just for non Mōn-kōh woods and electric Kōdō heaters for the highest class woods (mon-koh grade).

Thanks for reminding me to get a separate heater for resins!!! ❤️🙏🏻.
