I have a hard time with this one. Syed ascent is distinctly a maroke. A damp forest floor note. Yet ASO themselves saying (Jan actually) that the reason they didn’t distil any papua to date was for this very same reason: damp.
I have jannah and here to say is a very nice oil. But built differently. Less green shades more brown yellow orange. The papua origin is there but the aesthetic different. Equally beautiful.
Alas Ensar bashing is the current status of the ouddict forum and like an invisible hand (actually many times fully visible hands) it leads the community to carry on with the Ensar Oud bashing rhetoric.

Just because people dont like an oil doesnt mean its "bashing". I personally prefer honest reviews of oils and would never take it as bashing but as different strokes for different folks. If it was Ensar bashing you wouldnt see many positive reviews of his oils on this thread. Never seen you call out Ensar for his bashing others on Gaharu

Yeah it read more of a dislike towards GP which seems a love/hate oil here, as opposed to bashing Ensar's oils in general. Personally I don't love it but do enjoy it 🙂

Yup...i am in the ‘love’ Green Papua camp...even have a back up bottle...just found it strange that @Ammar referred to it as “overhyped not-that-great”...Given the personal subjectivity of oud opinions...the “overhyped” i guess just means it got a lot of good reviews...? The “not-so-great” is an opinion of GP that @Ammar & @Habz786 share...which is totally understandable...there are a number of oils that have not impressed me...
So...no EO bashing here...just that others’ positive shared opinions are hype...

Don't see any comments about ensar??
Just someone who doesn't look at Green Papua the way you do.. .
I saw Rasoul's post on Gaharu about side-by-side layering, so just before bed I've decided to do the same,
3 adjacent swipes of AAssam - Meitei / IO - Mysuru bil Misk / ASO - Yaqoot
ooooh boy. Currently the fieriness of Yaqoot is overpowering but before I swiped that there was nice interplay between the other 2.
I have now rubbed each swipe into each other creating a massive oil patch on my wrist and now Yaqoot has shied back, everything is melded together harmoniously. What has it created? I have no idea but wow, this is smoooooooth. Seems to be lacking an "oudiness" per say, just an overall surreal aroma.
I'm gonna have to try this blending more frequently, very interesting. Shame that I'll be sleeping as it dries down properly

Ladies and gents
Are you here to tell me Ensar Oud gets a fair handshake on this forum as other vendors? If so I chuckle much like I chuckle if someone said other vendors get the same love on Gaharu.
Both forums are skewed. Big time.
That’s my point. This forum had a chance (maybe still has, but each day that passes my faith gets reduced) to be neutral, to be a true transparent place...

Infact @Rasoul Salehi long before you began your Oud journey Ensar had more than a fair handshake here, he had his banner up for advertising and was invited to join. Not going to open up the past and get into all that however i really think you are being emotional not logical. Talking about this forum its more transparent and neutral than any other Oud forum online, if you dont like it then maybe setup or find a better place. I first hand have seen your alligence to Ensar and you come across as his mouth peice......
Sorry if i sound harsh but ive had enough of people critising this forum, especially when they employ double standards
