Thanks I made it myself out of a piece of soapstone. The mass of the stone easily absorbs and gently disperses the heat from the coil.

More very high quality pure A. Sinensis wood. This wood is beautiful. The notes change even in the same wood, and even in the same piece of wood that I've broken off the bigger piece, although the main characteristics of the scent profile still there, being, woody, warm, inviting and sweet, then it breaks off into multiple nuances that I will see throughout this 100grams.
Here are some new pics of it from the 2 hour burn on coal (I use a Chinese rip off of the Shoyeido silver square coals and last up to 2 hours and the last little piece I let burn for as long as it wanted and was still letting off smoke for ages but lost its scent aruond 10-15mins into it):
Piece of a front bit:
Another piece of a front bit:
Another:
Really up close of one of the pieces' front bit:
And a back bit of the slices (most of the back bits are even like this) :
The nuances I get besides from the basic profile notes are, camphoric, a tobacco note on some, smokey, and a spring water fountain with a spring breeze in the air with florals. * Oh and, balsamic *.

Shoyeido Matsu grade square cut
Today’s piece had a Walla Patta scent at the opening and lots of resin. It would’ve made a nice bead bracelet, but Shoyeido made a lot of square cuts for burning instead of making beads for bracelets🤪

Yes, but I got mine from Japan to save money.

Merauke AQ - The Oud Lab.
Attractive shiny chocolate brown chunks. Very dense pieces, full of resin & oil. I don’t often see Merauke of this grade. The aroma is superb; floral, green, spicy but becomes darker & sweeter the longer it bubbles. I’ve been heating this one regularly over the last month, I understand why it’s such a ubiquitous variety of wood in the GCC.

Thank you, site saved. Does this website deliver to the UK?

Heated (but still burning since there is smoke, since my heater can just do subtle burning, less heat than coal, more than light burning/heating, and have a lot of fragrance for some reason, its a ZhengLong one) some of my very high quality (plantation) Aquilaria. Sinensis, multiple twigs of a larger piece, since it's strips and not solid pieces twigs would be a more acceptable term for it rather than square chips, when I burn on coal I just make wee thing squares, coal is somehow better for these, gently heated coal with a mica makes it bubble like crazy and the fragrance lasts a while, the heavy smoke at the start lasts for 2-3 mins, then its light smoke after that on silver coal, that gives off what I suspect to be the mid notes, then base notes on coal last 2-3 mins or so and its very hard to smell those anyway so I just throw that piece on the side of the bowl when I enter the base notes on coal, on heaters it is a different scent, albeit quite similar, it is quite drastically different as well as not different, feels lke the coal releases, not only stronger fragrance, but more nuanced notes, or maybe the heater (which I heat them at 200-240 then when its near the beginning of the base notes I turn up max 300-320c for 1-2 mins then stop) just reveals a slightly but noticeable different scent profile? Idk... woods are weird, kinda like computers, both things I love, incense and computers and video games all act in strange ways and I love all, lol.. Also burned 3 small pieces (0.25-0.3g a piece max, more likely to have been 0.1-0.2) @Guru_AromatiX White CK, which is very nice, at least the batch I got. Very milky, lactonic, kinamic and slightly bitterly sweet.

Stores in Japan cannot export agarwood. You’ll need a contact in Japan willing to buy it and ship it to you, or a proxy service like jappanrabbit.com

Just watch out. I have had her give me pieces that looked good and okay, decent enough, then when I chopped them and put them (even on non mica plate coal) there would be light smoke with hardly any, if at all, fragrance, and she blamed that on me having no experience. I posted here about it and the piece of chopped wood had like 1mm of resin the rest was just dirt and brown wood/wood dirt.

Yeah, iori told me about these types of chipping proxy services, can you please PM me about how they work? I get very confused.

I have never used a proxy, so I am not sure how the entire process flows. You can go to japanrabbit.com to try and learn about their service.
