Glad you like it too!
That whole store is a steal compared to US-based companies.
Did you check out its muattar?

I haven't tried their bakhoor, but the muattar is amazingly strong, just the way I sometimes like it. (I also appreciate the subtleties of Japanese incense, but sometimes you just want something STRONG.)
I’ve been curious about Yusa! Is the one you mentioned still available?

No, I got the very last part-gram of that one in the present clearance sale *evil laugh* - still plenty of other Yusa left though. The sale makes them especially worth checking out now.

I just swiped Sultan Kudarat by Al Hashimi for the second time, and I am now fully convinced that I got hold of something special here.
Again it shows an intense, nostril-searing, mint-eucalyptus blast throughout. This time, I get more of a spiced apple and orchard blossoms impression under the minty frosting. There are cloves and other warming spices again. The petroleum whiff and mango skins come in a little later this time.
The concentration is nuts - my nostrils are actually tingling from this, and I can even feel it in the back of my throat a little. I will eke this one out with toothpick-head swipes for as long as I can.

MesOud HAVVA
I received the most luminous feeling from HAVVA, similar to cloudy, full moon night in New England near catnip and maybe spearmint, light white camphor aroma and taste, soulful glow, light incense and wood in background. Caution: I am an amateur when it comes to describing aesthetics of Oudh oils, but this one allows me to retreat and feel balanced. Pure well being in a little bottle!

Not selling this again for anywhere near what we sold it for during the sale. It’s the best Sri Lankan oud oil I’ve ever come across.

EO- Cambodi Caramel
It’s a dark brown resinous Oud. It’s bone dry, no sweetness whatsoever, notes of salt water and the sea , like I’ve gone fishing and there’s some bait on the boat. Woody, earthy. It’s not funky or have barn at all. I’ve been looking for an Oud of this profile that doesn't shout too much like the rest of my collection. It’s developing into a more palatable scent minute by minute as it becomes warmer with my body heat. It’s becoming sweeter. Would be more useful for layering with other Ouds and attars.
Edit: I had to layer with Cambodi - Mishaal Atarji. Disappointing to be honest. Would have hoped it would perform well on its own. Maybe wearing it another day for another mood?

Second review with longevity issue, interesting!

Smells so Oud
Really enjoying Al Hashimi - Trat Sultan. It's just a good one to have in my collection, particularly for reference. An easy daily wear when you want to wear an oud but don't need something fancy for mundane chores. I'm actually going through my gram pretty quickly. Is there anyone else here who received a bottle and isn't interested in keeping it? If so, i'll take it. 😉

Correction: Filipino Oud!!!! Not Sri Lankan. I was thinking of another Sri Lankan Oud we have of the same calibre. But this Filipino is the best I have ever come across - ditto with the Sri Lankan that is unreleased for now.

I’m enjoying this one - nice, sour, fermented berries. Not barnyard at all, but it reminds me of Belgian geuze - especially the so-called ‘kriek’ or cherry type.

Sokkat AlTeeb - Trat Boray VIP
This is a resinous deep and luscious Oud. It’s like the sauce of a beef bourguignon. Its sillage, projection and longevity are through the roof. It leaves a strong trail in any building corridor where one has passed.
Bergamot, citrus, spice, and wood are the main notes here. A beautifully made Oud that’s loud! And it’s one of my all time favorites.

A Vietnamese facet is showing. This oil is not the loud and shouting kind but it’s poised and confident.
