Feel oud Sri Lanka

Got it a few years ago,
nice stuff.

Nippon Kodo Borneo
I favor starting with low heat.

ASO Papua New Guinea
Some variation from piece to piece,
the sliver I heated was mostly
a bitter oudiness.

Sumatran double super
Exotic floral.

Malaccan chips and some pale green Hojari frankincense on my DIY unit.

 

[EJayB]

Malaysian chips with Vietnamese chips
I burn a lot and the overlapping scents drive my distillation choices
This seems a good mix

Palo santo. quite different experience compared to often visited oud, sandalwood, resins.
not a massive fan of these woods but I do enjoy the scent.
it's better to heat it on an electric burner than burning it directly as many other people do.

potionspowdersandsundries - Kyphi incense
this ball-shaped kneaded incense follows an ancient Egyptian recipe called Kyphi. there are many variants for making Kyphi incense and Jimmy took a Dioscorides's recipe then added his interpretation. I'm not sure about the exact formula but what I get from this are mostly juniper berries, raisin, honey, myrrh. I get lots of purple berries. it's fruity, jammy, comforting. it's not my favorite type of scent but feels genuinely made. so I appreciate the craftsmanship of Jimmy.

Mysore Sandalwood sticks from Yin-Xin Craft Incense.
Unfortunately they forgot to send the Timor Oud sticks but this Mysore is just so rich, smooth and relaxing.

After repeated samplings from my latest Japan haul, of the four aloeswoods, this Gyokushodo Vietnamese Mud agarwood is my clear winner.

It’s actually my favorite Vietnamese at the moment. First try… it reminded me a little of Shoyeido Translucent Path, with it’s perfume character and kinamic edge, and after subsequent tries it is confirmed. It’s a little sweet,
and is the fruitiest Vietnamese I’ve tried.
Being classified as Mud, thanks to Google translation, I suppose it is agarwood harvested from tree stumps in the ground.
Needless to say, I jumped at getting 3 more boxes. ¥11,000 for 15 grams👍

Nippon Kodo Sizuro Borneo

I enjoy it at two levels of heat,
low for a while (beautiful),
then high (oudy kick).

Cultivated kinam...
a wonderful daily burner. prominent honey, nectar note. subtle floral notes, resinous vanillic sweetness. lovely.

I beautiful piece of Green Hojari and Sabah Ghattas from Al Hashimi.
The Sabah Ghattas are full of resins and the Hojari is fresh, green and soft. I would rather chew them and not burn 🙂
