I’m surprised you’re not into it mate, it’s a masterpiece Merauke! Keep trying. I reckon one day soon it’s going to click.

Smells so Oud
Wore Pursat Zen Al-Hind Oud later in the day. During the mid dry down I swear I was getting notes of palo santo!

Speechless, Rambo red bandanna, burgundy & silky. I read a review that mentioned terracotta pots and I have to agree! I have a room at home with terracotta floor tiles and I must say there is definitely a note that does smell like it. Amazing stuff!
My next step is to purchase some oils from Habz, The Oud Lab & Jinko!

Surpringly could still smell Trinity on the back of my hand before before bed; 9-10 hours after application and having cycled home wearing gloves with relatively thick fleecing inside, which I thought the oil would've rubbed off onto, reducing its longevity
I've forgotten to bring any oud with me to work but have some vials here from @Oudamberlove who generously sent me these years ago.
Ajmal - Masterpiece. DAMN this is stroooooong
his own Al Ghaliyah blend - this is #4

Did a 3 part co-swipe last night.
Lao Shan - The Oud Lab
Yunnan Imperiale - Imperial Oud
Mynma Gold - Agar Aura
The drydown is seriously to die for. I wish I could bottle just the aroma of this drydown and smell like it 24/7. It’s exactly what I love about Oud oil. It smells like incense, cream, a slightly sweet aroma that feels like yellow florals, a bit of a tangy quality from the sinensis and even that famed cooked milk aroma. Just so so so good.

It’s not Kinamic at all. It just smells really good. If I ever smell that abstract purple aroma in an oil along with the peppery green cooked milk and cooling sensation I’ll let the world know 😉😂

I don’t really get this oil to be honest. I think Oud Ahmad and tigerwood Royale are better.
It smells old and ancient and dark red. It’s unique for sure but nothing I would crave or pay 2-3k for.

Oh I know. Nothing wrong with having fun! But I am being serious too. I swear the moment I can find an oil that matched the wood I have I’ll pack it up and call it a day

Which wood is that? And how much are you willing to spend?

Yamadamatsu Green Kyara! As long as I have time to budget I’m willing to spend a decent amount of money. I don’t have deep pockets though so it takes time for me to save and purchase oils/woods.

Yabaan - Kyara Oil
Yabaan is a smooth, deep Kyara oil that smells like real Japanese incense. Rich in resin and cream notes, it gives the full kodo scent in oil form.

Well to be frank, I agree with you but the way I see it is oils are art pieces. They command a price and I either respect it and pay or simply move forward. And so far I’ve probably bought 50+ tolas locally that are not cheap. I either use them very generously or give them away to friends in good spirit. But Oud Salahuddin, I don’t see myself doing that 🙂
We’re all different and that’s okay.

I was told at the dawn of my oud journey: when it came to the really high end oils, if you have to ask the price it is out of your budget haha

Noted, but no harm in asking. I suppose it may require me to plan ahead and inshallah acquire it 🙂 (unless I’m like breaking some unspoken rule here for asking about the price. Then guys, please let me know 🤣)

I just meant it light heartedly of course! I very much appreciate it when vendors are upfront with their prices and don't leave us guessing!
It was somebody's way of letting me know that oud could be very expensive long ago...

Here is a blast from the past that I uncovered while organizing: a tad of Purat Imperiale from Imperial Oud!
As you can see this is just a residue (there was essentially one drop stuck near the cap of the bottle before I applied it).
Given how old is sample is and how little there was in the vial I was anticipating a dull oxidized generic scent but this is FAR from that. There is a kind of scintillating aquatic fresh water and sparkling woody opening that was a shocker to me. Almost sinensis-like due to the singing sparkling wood notes but also crassna like in its heart. Spectacular!
