I tried it but my first attempt wasn't wonderful besides the snail slime shininess of it put me off. Got kind of a chemical smell. But fumigation is an art and I need to try again.

“Vegetative green notes with a wet human skin smell” 🤢

With most pieces I can extend the session on medium high, the resin keeps giving good scents😊

How did u achieve this level of heat? On coal or electric?

Most likely via subitism burner or another option is an electric incense heater which kinda looks like a pot with a variable temperature dial. You can also use kinam heaters assuming the wood is ground finely enough
Finally getting the hang of wood on charcoal. Burning Kalimantan from Etsy. I was finally able to coax out some very pleasant aromas by letting the coal burn longer and using a thicker piece of wood. I started off using such small and thin pieces it would burn up before smelling good.
The aroma opened with a fresh earthiness similar to evergreen. Then small hints of leather earth and a little bit of sweetness.
Really liking burning wood now that I’ve figured it out a bit. I’ll continue to practice with this cheaper wood before I step up to something nicer. I’d like something a bit sweeter next time.

Damn thats a nice piece of sinensis. Not to toute my own city, but i think HK agar trumps most out there, including most vietnam / hainan.
But thats just me 🙂

Vintage Hainan Aloeswood from brother in aroma Kosmas. 60min session on the heater, not a super complex wood but not a super simple wood either, kinda in the happy middle.
Sweet creamy vanillic resinous, musty old wooden furniture aloeswood note, super strong oceanic breeze that was really refreshing as if i was in the fresh air with the ocean saltiness, red and purple berries with slightly candied sour cherry, with a misty perfumey floral note, forest greenery, spiciness and herbs and spices, some semi-sweet, tiny bit bitter earthy notes and sweet creamy, milky dark chocolate-like notes and some oak moss, and musky notes, with some acidity, and some BUTTERY note too*. <<< Forgot to add that in.
Nice wood. Very enjoyable. First time trying a good quality vintage wild Sinensis and Hainan.

Shawq - ASO.
I’ll have to pick up more of this wood while it’s available. I’m halfway done with my current batch & I don’t want to be without this aroma profile. Shawq is a daily burn for me, not in regard to pricing but because it suits my mood frequently.
Although the top note is wonderful & faithfully showcases a high grade Assamese profile, it’s all about the resinous incense bottom note for my tastes. Often this is the case with Indian wood, while Crassna or Sinensis woods exhibits those floral, fruity, luminous, sometimes Kinamic top note qualities, Indian wood is bass heavy, deep, dark, strong.
Shawq is a perfect example of majestic Assamese wood. Leather, tobacco, white flowers, spices. After 30 mins on the sub, a divine vanilla-labdanum-tonka reveals itself, sweet but not the red fruit-caramel sweetness you often see with Crassna woods, more of a musky amber sweetness. Notes of worn leather, cigar tobacco, nutmeg, ambergris have filled my space. A masculine, old world, regal aroma.
