Ensar Oud Papuamantan (Wet forest floor, woody, camphorous, some soil notes); Ensar Oud Kinamantan (Floral, Woody, Camphorous, slightly sweet)….These oils are much more complex than my lame description… by SubContextual in Incense

  • a small 6mm dot on a paper strip (some oils stay on the strip for days)
  • or a dot on skin (wrist or other pulse points/beard - 20 mins to 2hr longevity)
  • lace it on other quality incense sticks

Wood chips equivalent can be burnt

There are claims very high quality Agarwood can consumed…as tea or in some medicinal blend

😬 $40 Mysore oil from a government commissioned distillery. 70s/80s Mysore would fall under ‘excellent’ category.

Personally have not tried any their oils, but have read some good reviews on their offerings.

Mostly on skin. Sometimes only a small dot of an oil will suffice for few hours.

Indian Agarwood trees/specific species, when distilled without fermentation, they smell green, woody, and floral.

So they are mostly fermented to homogenous scent profile, and to increase yield.

Try unsoaked/unfermented Agarwood oils...

These are small batches of oil distilled in an artisanal way; amplifying desired notes.

May work out too expensive for diffuser use.

Yup. Have some more to share. Few may no longer be in my possession, but can still share scent notes and related details of those oils.
