Burn of the Day

[oud.time]

This week I’ve been mostly heating the Vietnamese Ant Nest from Maunamoku. I quite like it and it’s a good price for a daily burn.

Tonight I went with the cultivated kynam from Sulaym. It is also nice . It’s a slightly different aroma from the Kangiiten variety. Reminds me of the AlHind CK oil.

Wild Sumbawa from Mesoud. Long lasting and tasty! Has leathery notes as it progresses has A resinous oudy scent and other things going on!

Koh Kong Pursat from Ward Lab. really tasty stuff, get a slight fruity jungle then a sweet floral note with a hint of leather. real nice!

Gyokushodo no. 422 Vietnamese Kizami

Overall more powdery than my other Vietnamese oudh, and at times very sweet and syrupy…,yummmmm😊

Beautiful square cut Sandalwood pieces that I bought in the late 90s from a Singapore ebay vendor whom i miss dearly. They were not particularly expensive, but have a wonderful aroma, and are perfect for use on the subitism.

Filipino wood I got as a gift from Kareem, PureOudh. Got around 6.4 or 6.5g maybe slightly less or more but around there to my recollection and it was a nice burn on coal finally some wood I have is good on coal again. Jungle notes, sweet and sour, salt and balsamic, oudy wood, and resinous.

Nice burn 🙂

Some Ensar Ceram Sinking 9.92g that Sproaty was selling, very nice wood. Resinous as hell. Notes of wild jungle, cream, woody oudiness, sweetness, some sort of berry, maybe purple or red? And some notes of chocolate I have recognized so far. Very nice wood.

Thank you @Sproaty, this offering was very nice, thank you!!!

Do you do Kodo with these, or not?

Shoyeido Tako (IIRC). This time I used an Xacto and scraped a tiny bit and warmed at the lowest setting, I cannot believe the difference when warming powder compared to chunk, the aroma at 9v I am finding difficult to describe, floral, sharp, sweet? It's not even hot to the touch yet so much aroma emanates.


Edit: It smells of Perfume!

Do you do Kodo with these, or not?

Not a formal Kodo, but I do start at lower heat then turn it up gradually.

Some more Ceram Sinking today, these pieces can go on for so long on charcoal that I think I only used like 0.5g (under a gram anyway) on this burn. Some lovely, woody oudy resinous notes, slight jungle notes (very fleeting, I sometimes like jungle notes sometimes not), very creamy, not like sandalwood but in a different aloeswood resinous creamy way, a nice sweetness and sweet chocolate, and creamy chocolate that may have been a creamy note and a sweet chocolate note coming out at the same time. Lovely wood. This is my first Ensar product ever, did not disappoint, I thank @Sproaty, the original price of the wood would have made trying this nearly unattainable, and I got basically the full 10g anyway at half the price!!! Excellent. 😋

Hainan Char

Lovely florals with some pollen and oudiness.

 

[The Scent Guru]

100+ yr old Hainan - very floral, sweet at 9v.

 

[Maunamoku]

Shared “Deep Red”, with someone unfamiliar with Kynam, before wandering through the mountains together. The spirit of the wood stayed with us as we ventured.

 

[The Scent Guru]

Still enjoying the Hainan, up to 13.5V now, still a gorgeous, piercing floral
