Burn of the Day

[Olfactory Nomad]

enjoying mine this morning. I bought 3 bottles to make the shipping worthwhile.

Mine should be arriving this week. It'll be a first for me to try wood from Papua.

Combo of Vietnamese plantation chips on the sub. Stunning creamy vanilla and a heavy swipe of Zamarad 3. Together it all smells like I'm swimming in caramelized banana with vanilla ice cream.

Gyokushodo #425 Indonesian Kizami

Very fragrant🥰

Back on the Oudique Laos 🇱🇦 Char - rinsing out some already well-used pieces on high heat.

I picked up some circular mica plates from Etsy that work beautifully with the AN Agarwood sub. I find they let me make better use of the ‘real estate’.

Etsy is a horrible website to use but hopefully this works.

For me, as well. Thanks!

He’s got some of the subs in his shop.

Nice! Maybe it’s just me, but I find Etsy is such a bad website…simply exploring someone’s whole shop is hard. From what I gather it’s a Yemeni lady in London who makes her own bakhoor and sells supplies.

It looks like she’s also reselling subs! If that one isn’t one of the ones like we have, I’d be amazed! Probably why it’s got such a great fit for the mica sheets!

I’m with you on Etsy. Miserable experience nearly always, but for some strange reason, I keep going back.

ASO Merauke from years ago

Had to revisit it.

Esoteric scent, with so many nuances, you can extrapolate all sorts of notes.
I really should heat this more often.
I can’t help but think that the aroma would be nice if captured in a perfume, along with some spices and vetiver.

I have some chunks of that, haven't heated it in years... wonder where I put it? I recall it needed a higher temperature

beautiful! I take mine out from time to time just to admire. I get so much mileage from the tiniest chips...yesterday, I used a fresh chip on lower heat. Such a nice and sustained cooling note that's halfway between dusty mint and watery cucumbers for me.

My first few Kangiiten orders arrived and it has been an amazing afternoon! I started with Dreams of Merauke, then Dreams of African Sandalwood. Just finished up a White Ambergris stick and now I’m about to light a Limu Mountain stick!

Surely this is the beginning of a long and wonderful relationship with Japanese incense.

These sticks aren't what I'd usually categorize as Japanese Incense, they're mostly single origin woods or a couple of regions with animalics, they're like ultra premium sticks in that regard. Great way to enjoy profiles of the woods themselves. I think of Japanese Incense as at least having a herbal component to them, but whatever you call these, these are heavy hitters and are giving you a solid foundation into the world of woods and incense!

Good to know! I don’t know anything about any of this, I just assumed it was a style.

AlKhudir Oud - Maroke Asgon Double Super

I don’t usually opt for Maroke, not a favorite of mine. But these double super pieces are beautifully fragrant. Glad I got them this time. Might not be the last. The pictured piece was cut off as it was too large. Should have took a pic of it when it was one piece. Anyhow. . Notes of: Cocoa - Coffee - Earthy - deep, dark resinous

For reference:
The pic with the 2 chips shows AlMokhlif Oud Super on the left, and on the right is AlKhudir Oud Double Super
