Agarwoods

Experience the enchanting fragrance of agarwood right from our online shop. Known as a gem among woody notes in perfumery, the oud tree holds a special place, especially among UAE perfumers. The older the wood, the more valuable and multifaceted the essential oil of agarwood oud becomes, offering a richer aroma with age.

What Does Agarwood Smell Like?

Agarwood, derived from the precious agarwood tree, is renowned for its rarity and high cost, making oud oil one of the most expensive and oldest perfume ingredients. Its aroma is a captivating blend of balsamic, sweet, smoky, and woody notes. Due to the high cost, real oud is seldom used in mass-market perfumes, with oud-based fragrances often produced in limited editions, representing the pinnacle of perfumery art.

Our essential agarwood oil is a 100% natural, pure oil. It is non-toxic, non-irritating, soothing, and tonic. Free from stabilizers, fixatives, or pesticides, this oil boasts exceptional long-lasting deodorant properties.

Types of Agarwood Smells

Agarwood chips are highly prized in Arabian oil perfumes, often forming the base of a composition enhanced with amber, musk, spices, and floral oils. The quality of oud doesn't depend on the resin's color but on the aroma's nuances: the more bitter the taste, the higher the quality. There are five levels of oud aroma classification:

• Sweet: Reminiscent of burnt sugar and honey.
• Salty: Evoking the scent of algae fumigated with smoke.
• Sour: Similar to the aroma of sour plum.
• Bitter: Featuring a tonic aroma.
• Pungent: The sharp scent of bitter chili in a hot frying pan.

The Elegance of Agarwood Scents

Wearing agarwood oud requires style and elegance. The scent's sharpness can be polarizing, attracting either admiration or misunderstanding. However, much like fine jewelry, agarwood should be worn with dignity. Those who appreciate its unique aroma will find it a truly rewarding experience.

Embrace the luxurious world of agarwood chips and discover the captivating essence of this treasured fragrance.
