Very char-like profile,
which makes me smile.

Kangiiten - Wild Leyte powder. Very fragrant from the bottle at room temp. Starting at 60 degrees produces a noticeable warm chai masala scent. Bumped up to 80 and this is where it goes completely sideways! Suddenly I'm smelling something akin to perfumed almonds! Never have I smelled this before from a wood powder. In saying that though this is also the first time I have smelled a wood from this region so maybe this is typical? I wouldn't know? Either way it's incredibly complex and I'm now beginning to understand why people go nuts for wood ( and oil ) from the Philippines.

Went through my $1/g cheap chars
Hainan
I thought they would be a waste,
but each still has a good aroma,
just not a whole lot of it😬

Nippon Kodo Sizuro Vietnamese

Floral, oudy, resin, and spicy notes

Old Nha Trang - Yusa

These nugs are still putting out aroma - I reckon this little piece has been on low heat for 6+ hours and is still going strong. Money well spent for the single gram.

KZ Premium Brunei Heartwood

Fruity floral resin almost candy-like,
oudiness, vegetation, woody, and perfumed powder.

It leaves my room smelling wonderful.

Looky what I have! Shoyeido may be overpriced, but I have high regards for their heritage and quality.

Looking good 🙂

Looking good 🙂

It does, right @Mr.P Good stuff. I can smell the resin, not just the burning blonde wood. However, what excites me is this trio: https://aromology.com/products/oud-...-bakhoor-incense?_pos=22&_fid=38a48dd37&_ss=c

I like Muattar in general; few have left me disappointed, but Aromology.com got it right, very well done. I don't care if they made it themselves, which I think they do, or order it from China, I love it nonetheless!

I know they dip some of their incense in fragrant oils, but I still have great respect for this house.

Kangiiten Tarakan Floral

I can see how Tarakan oudh is revered,
it’s a wonderful region IMO.
A very essential part of my collection❤️

Maunamoku Nha Trang Char

It’s always a special moment when I heat this Oudh.

 

[Quintillus]

"Palace of the Heavens" Kyara. A perfect session after a long work week. Ate the smallest of slivers and it numbed the tip of my tongue.

Vaporous top notes, electric with lovely sweetness. Balanced bitter sweet, soft powdery florals, with cooling at higher temps (+110c). Very beautiful...

Nippon Kodo Sizuro Borneo

Not quite Malinau, but close enough😬

Hindi Suyufi - Oudique

Already posted a note about this, so I’ll try not to bore you again, but here’s a better picture. Shows best on medium heat where it really starts to exude a relaxing purplish fug. 😵‍💫 😁

Kangiiten - Wild Leyte powder. This is absolutely stunning wood. I could stick my nose in it forever.

Gyokushodo #422 Vietnamese Kizami

Supposedly soil agarwood, upon close inspection there are some pieces that do look weather worn, so if there are indeed soil pieces in here, it’s just a percentage.

Scents wise, it’s a mixed batch, but overall very good🥰
