Oud of the Day

[Taesik Yun]

Needed to swipe some TK after reading this… it’s awesome stuff! But I’m curious what type of oil DOES give you immense joy if this one isn’t doing it for you anymore 😮

😅 well I'd say quality oils generally smells great but I need to be in the right conditions(physically, psychologically) to listen their scents.

SOTD, Oud Yaaseen from Yaaseen.
this came as a sample for purchasing Plumeria Grande, which I'll talk about later.

I was curious of this oud oil for quite some time as I've seen this used in many of Mellifluence's attars as a base note.
yes, it is a Thai plantation oil but how surpringly pleasant smelling this one is!

I get lots of apricot, plum, cherry, magnolia from the opening.
it's very easy on the nose and addictive.
a little after, I get ceder-ish woody scent as well.

what a lovely oil.

along with RBO's Khao Kho, this one hits my Thai oud sweetspot.

Haven't tried yet but pretty sure the IO blows away everything in my collection

Monsoon has set in, and the scent of rain and soil is in the air. Sigriya (Ceylon) by RBO and Zamurd by HBO have everything to experience affinity with Nature.

A heavy swipe of Musk Sandal has transmuted all into something Transcendental. Blissful!

I wish IO would also make a comeback in the future

Smells like it’s from the Malay Peninsula, I was surprised to hear that it’s Southern Thai.

Southern Thailand is on the Malay Peninsula! Your nose had it right

When AT told me Southern Thailand, my mind went to Trat, Chanthaburi etc. I forgot that Thailand extends down that far, thanks for the heads up!

From now on, think Kedah and Perak! 😁
Happy swiping. Enjoy.

Lovely budget oil that is a bit of a tease as it reminds me of the old world Cambodians of yesteryear that I miss so much. Need to stock up on Koh Kong asap إن شاء الله as its one of my favourite regions of Oudh oil to wear neat!

Will do! Thailand is a region that I don’t enjoy very often, but it seems the woods / oils from the Southern part are much more to my liking.
Does Lao Xiang & Lao Shan come from a similar area? Lao Xiang is probably the best Thai oil I’ve ever smelt.

If you don’t mind me asking, what are your favourite Koh Kong oils?

Great nose as always.

Yup. South indeed. To be honest, there might have been some percentage of wild "Malay" woods in those batches, but as the distiller resides in what's known as Thailand, I chose to be on the safe side and just say Thai. Nose knows best I guess 👍🏼

The profiles for both Lao Shan and Lao Xiang is nothing that I've stumbled upon in any Thai oil to date.
Appreciate your feedback 🙏🏼

After probably a year of forgetting about my 0.7 stash, tried this beast today. One of the rarer agar aura oils that has improved tremendously over the months/years and filled the gaps and gained depth. A mash up of that purple gourmand note in hulubalang, plus the citrusy cola note of ayu and the purple florals of malaya. But more depth and breadth. This is delicious stuff and potent as hell
