Malinau newly distilled
It starts with an overwhelming blueberry bubblegum. Loud, sweet, airy, sour and slightly resinous.
Then it calms down and rests like a typical Kalimantan oud, earthy and Smokey/incense with slight sweetness. Ok the dry down the smokiness tones down and honey sweetness comes back with beautiful red fruits, damp earth. One of the best oils I own for the price, i can easily buy it for triple the price and I’d be ok. I’ll be ordering more of it soon.
On a different note: does anyone else feel that ouds smell different sometimes? When I try an oud one day it smells different than the day before, not drastically, but sometimes more notes come through, sometimes the emotions and state it brings is different depending on how I’m feeling, depending on the weather and wether I’m tired or rested etc.
