Sanai Philipinos.
Got this knowing that it is a sanai. and I'm quite surprised by how good it smells.
the sweet aroma is dominant but there's some floral quality to it.
the way it oozes out of the resin is different from the real one, but I would not be able to tell it is a sanai if I didn't know. the scent is very deceiving and makes me scratch my head.
hmm, it's quite an experience, to say the least.

Well, Sanai is a term I first heard from Rahel of OudBase. it's not the term he invented. btw,
I'm not 100% sure of its definition, with that said, Sanai is ouds injected with resins and other aromatics.
what separates sanai from fake oud is, that sanai sellers, mostly in Middle East, I guess, tell you when they're selling sanais. sanais are different from painted ouds from Indonesia, India, and Vietnam.
if anyone here knows more about Sanai, please chime in.
as I don't want to spread false information in the already confusing oud industry.

It's very quiet, best in the morning. The Sri Lankan soil peppery sad, I don't recommend.

12th Generation of Kyara Zen's Myo-Jyu. The curry and spice balanced, the medicinal so light and sweet in the morning, they hint at the sun and the sticks blister like orange peels.

It’s definitely a mixed lot, some pieces smell almost like Philippine Agarwood.

I respect so much honest descriptions. Nothing wrong with Sanai, only the people who sell it without mentioning what it is.
Some better quality Kalimantan and a sliver of Palo Santo on medium high is a delicious combo. Palo Santo is fruity wood to my nose giving the oud some wild texture.

Wonderful indeed, with some pieces better than others.
I Googled Hainan and found that Yunnan is much bigger, and so are other mainland Provinces, which makes me wonder…..is there much more agarwood out there?
