"Colorado Camel Milk LLC" 😀 The camel was native to North America until it was hunted to extinction. The ranchers here raise the camels for the medicinal properties of the milk; I enjoy it as a delicacy.
Normally, I drink tea while enjoying oud, which is excellent. I am surprised by how much of an influence the milk has on the aroma and texture of the oud.

Is there any website for it? do they ship within US?

I am uncertain of the rules concerning the sharing of links, but this ranch can be found here: https://www.coloradocamelmilk.com/ I think they recently started offering pasteurized milk, I only have experience with their raw product. They have happy looking camels.

Did loads of sampling yesterday, mostly just deep inhales from the dipstick, though I did try a couple of skin, with the tiniest of swipes to fully gauge the subtles of the scent. All of them currently from @mesOUD , some stood out quite a bit:
Koh Chang - happiness in a bottle, an instant smile and calm overcomes me, even when I smell it from the cap. Upon application a cooling feel, but not the minty camphoric sort, more akin to the cool breeze coming off the sea, makes my mouth water! A much sweeter tart than the other two
Cambodie Qadeem - hardest sample vial to open, but totally worth it. This super thick oil projects this tart sourness, with woodiness mixed in, alongside a raisin-like leather note
Prachinburi - airy and tart, almost in a ratio of 2:1, tart to sweet, more projecting almost like it lifts off the skin easier
For a full wear today I chose @mesOUD 's Oud Said, a noble scent for a noble day, within a noble month! You're trekking through the jungle right after the rain, and you stop to catch your breath. As the sun gently heats the droplets of water on the leaves and the ground, a cooling, herbal and vegetal mist engulfs you. Upon each inhale you're transported back there! This one is more meditative peace, as opposed to jovial happiness!

I absolutely love camel milk. It is safe from the issues that cow milk has, as those microbs don't exist in camel milk. It is also amazing for allergies, especially if you had it as a baby.
Dairy affects the sense of smell because it increases mucus.

I’ve noticed some oils from Papua New Guinea forming hard resin-like residues on the threads. There must be some molecule in whatever species that was that polymerizes quickly.

I think that happens with a lot of oils, and Zamarad 2 is not Papuan. Most likely not the same species as a Papuan oil either.

Merauke by Craft Oud
Crime & Punishment by Ensar Oud
Oomph and depth of both fragrances is the benchmark of quality fragrances. Syed Ascent by AA and now this Merauke by CO, both exhibit quality and only quality. Years back, Merauke signature scent was not of my taste, but with the passage of time, it developed on me. C & P is undoubtedly worth acquiring, again and again.

I agree - I’ve been meaning to post some notes about that oil as it was one of my favorites in the sample set. Very vibrant classic Indonesian type oud. The top notes are quite lively and a good balance between oud notes and some of the more exotic spicy and tangy notes. Smells great all the way through dry down

Spent the day with @mesOUD 's Malinua oil, granted I'm a novice, I detect three distinct phases to this oud. Upon initial application I get a bitter, slightly nutty green similar to what you'd get sniffing off the applicator. As your swipe dries down a bit you start noticing a melon-y fruitiness, very different to the crassana's fruitiness, this is airy, and coastal with a hint of green still peaking through. The bitter green soon vanishes almost in its entirety and the fruitiness described takes center stage. At this point I start noticing a coolness to the scent, like a cloud hovering over my wrist, and I can't help but think of tea notes. At the end, a watery green mixes in with the coolness, it's a sweeter green, but not overly sweet.
Seems rather simple upon initial application, it's a lighter scent, but pay close attention to it, and just continue to be wowed! Easily perfume level complexity in an oud!

There are plenty of oud oils more complex than a perfume. Synthetic perfumes usually have a lot of ingredients, but each ingredient is just one chemical. Oud oils have many chemicals in them. If you are a novice then you will come to be surprised about the variety of scents. I have likely tried hundreds of oud oils at this point and I have never smelled two that were the same, and few that were really close to each other.

That final sentence Jame is both incredibly exciting and mildly terrifying!
The line I wrote about this oud being perfume complex was more for a mental reminder to myself. Prior to joining, and receiving my first order I couldn't have fathomed the world I was about to enter! Throughout this past week, I kept thinking to myself, this is a complete fragrance, not merely a note/accord as people refer to in the commercial world of fragrance. I guess the issue now is, I'm a believer but expressing that to others (outside the forum) is nearly impossible, it just needs to be experienced!
