Revisited some sandalwood sticks

Keigado Keiga Byakudan
A little perfume on top of a
swipe of sandalwood oil.

Kyukyodo Miyuki
A lot of perfume
a dash of turmeric
with a good sandalwood
underneath all that.

Daihatsu sandalwood
A touch of fruity perfume
on top of sandalwood.

Yamadamatsu Karaku sandalwood
A dash of benzoin
on a medium dose of sandalwood.

Tennendo Kohrokan
A touch of spice
on creamy sandalwood.

Minorien Fu-in sandalwood
Closest to straight-up sandalwood
but helped a tiny bit with aromatics.

Shunkohdo Sarasoju
Simply sandalwood and binder
with subtle sandalwood richness.

Yamadamatsu Kouboku Senshu sandalwood
Smells almost of pure sandalwood
but the smoke is harsh, not sure if it’s
from the binder or the sandalwood itself.

Baieido Kokoh Byakudan
Nice sandalwood
but heavy on the Baieido signature
use of medicine/herbs/spice.
 
Baieido Kun sho

I don’t get a lot of Cambodian oudh
and the binder is barely there,
but it’s a symphonic blend
where all the notes are in harmony.

Am I sensing “cooling notes” ?

Unique stuff, no jungle,
some sort of perfumey resin.


Then..
Kida Jinseido Hanakokonoe

A late comer to my collection,
but oh how glad I am to have it.
Mellow spice mix and nice agarwood.

And lastly...
Homemade stick using
Nippon Kodo Indonesian Kizami

It’s smelling very much like
Kalimantan.

Imperial Oud Walla Patta

A sobering stick full of good Walla Patta.
I read that some sinking was used,
but based on how it smells
the shavings must have been
top stuff too.

Glad I stocked up:Cooler:

Baieido Koshiboku

This stick is my buddy,
so glad to have it.

I’ve been going through my Baieido’s
and love their blending, but I can’t speak for the newer batches.

Then I lit my pure Indonesian stick
just 6.3% binder,
no need for aromatic blending,
the agarwood itself is the aromatic,
and a wonderful one at that:rolleyes:
