Hey @YusaAromatics - have you been keeping this to yourself?
I'm surprised I don't see more reviews of this - it is one of a small number of cambodi oils that I really enjoy. Thick and wonderful smelling oud - this tester is precious.

This one is really interesting. Packs a lot of complexity for its age and being plantation.
Very classically red with dried fruits and honey. There a bitter quality here that is really nice. I get hints of muskiness which balances out the sugary glaze.

Hindi no 1 by Tabeer oud today - 2nd wearing and this is a very interesting take on Hindi oud.
This is a Hindi oud oil without the fermented notes you’d imagine a Hindi oud to have. It opens up with minty green, powdery note which is wrapped around a lactonic core which is described as ‘kinamic’ by many. The deeper I sniff, I get more of the lactonic notes here mixed with hints of sour berries. The profile then moves into a slightly nutty aroma which takes it to the classic sweet resinous Hindi dry down.
This is perhaps a non soaked or slightly soaked Hindi oil.
No similarities to Nashila ( the only non soaked Hindi I have)
Very interesting oil

We do not sell plantation oils just to clarify.
But glad you like it ! Enjoy!

Oh interesting. I don’t know why I thought it was a plantation. No wonder it’s so complex haha
I kept telling myself there’s no way this is a plantation oil so I’m glad I wasn’t wrong hahah. I read the descriptor incorrectly.

Smells so Oud
Really got stuck into Al-Hind Oud Koh Zen yesterday. My partner had a girls afternoon so I could swipe freely without complaints. There's quite a bit going on in this oil. The mentholic diesel scent becomes almost dry...that's the best word I can come up for it. Then under that is a very woody incense note. The ripe fruit takes a bit of a back seat. Happily wear this when feeling in the mood for a Cambodi.

Indeed a knockout, nutty and loaded with vanilla and somewhat balsamic. This just smells delicious enough to eat, like a gourmand fragrance and come to think of it it does smell a bit like the sugary breeze of walking into a patisserie.

Yes. Zuhayr the Bangladeshi oud is so rich, full & unique. I think it's sold out now. Actually Hindi oils / chips are so different distinctively across the various regions like Mizoram, Manipuri, Naga, Tripura, Upper Assam, Lower Assam... they are broadly classified as Hindi.

Ending Christmas night with a swipe of EO’s Sultan Abdul Aziz which only seems to get better each time I wear it. It’s perfectly balanced on all fronts. The more I get to know this oil the more I appreciate just how solid PNG’s are when they don’t smell like bananas.

It is ageing well already I reckon. That leathery note has come to the front a bit more than when I first received mine. A lovely incense note comes in the dry down. I have half a gram of Siberian musk in one bottle of Arakan Classic which is about two months away from me having my first smell test. I have another bottle of it as well ageing by itself but I'm considering putting in some brown ambergris and then eventually combining the two.

Just landed a few hours ago and still on the first swipe.
Initial impressions aren’t necessarily impressive. Way too much “basic fruity/slight leather” crassna going on here. Could easily be mistaken for a Thai or a Lao. Not discernibly nha trang or anything to tell you it’s from sinking bead scraps.
There’s some glimpses of the orris/floral note but not really enough to push the needle beyond the average crassna profile, which I find really uninteresting. Not “kynamic” in the slightest.
Bear in mind, these are just first impressions and perhaps things can change down the line, but it does mirror what @Castingshadows said about this oil as well.
Ill certainly revisit it in the future.
