Oud of the Day

[zeedubbya]

What's your opinion of it?

It’s fantastic. Wonderful Oud. Starts out with a somewhat bitter, very woody smell and then moves into just the right amount of sweet/flowery territory. Not too much, just a nice Oud with good longevity and a very nice smell and happy brain feeling.

I do agree with you.

Right hand: LMK - Gyrinops 0: earthy, a bit smokey, green jungle... makes me feel comfortable.

Left hand: IO - Kohkong Imperiale: it starts kind of buttery, then getting fruity, later it becomes a bit bitter... the basis reminds me to IO - Yunnan Vintage dry down...

Is it Borneo, Sabah, PNG, Walla Patta?

It has multifaceted nuances,
but is predominantly Walla.

Fun to swipe

My first sniffs/small swipe of AA Cintaku this evening. Oh my. I don’t have the words for this one, and that’s rare. A simply stunning creation. Oh man....

Do you or anyone else that has tried both, if the profile and vibe is the same as royal malay?

I know someone who got his hands on Royal Malay while having a sample of Cintaku. He said they are very similar, and had he known, he would have gotten Cintaku (it is less expensive).

Hey, how do you like the Jerai? How would you describe it? Thanks.

I have bottles of Cintaku and Malaya. Also a sample of Royal Malaya. They all have a similar vibe and are amazing. Royal Malaya is a cut above the other two and one of the top malay oils I have ever tried, but I wouldn't spend twice as much for it. Any one of them will blow your mind.

OPENING IS BLACK/GREEN/BLUE
Starts w/charred wood, smoke, vinyl, and some aquatic green swampiness
Then its heart smells JUST LIKE BURNING AGARWOOD CHIP ON MEDIUM HEAT!!! Just like Taha said. This is liquid fumigation.

Note that I said "medium heat", not low heat, so there is a charred smokiness to it. Also, I concur with those who say it opens with a cola note. An altogether much darker, danker, wetter smell than many AA oils I've tried recently. That said, those weren't Malaysian. Enjoyable depending on your preference. In its heart, i have been surprised at how much it has smelled like some if the high quality Malay chips I've burned on coals before (not electric burners).

LMK Sumatera Gelang - just a dot under my lip. The scent of this reminds me of a softer version of notes present in KZ 1985.

IO Super Hoi An AND Encens Inderapura by AA. Two powerhouses that land squarely in my top 10.

IO hoi Ann - something about this feels so "classic" - reminds me a lot of Japanese incense. It's got this mature old bookstore vibe but still has this mild underlying sweetness that is really great. Some florals. Maybe some leather. In some ways this oil is subtle - not in potency - in aroma. Subtle in a good way. I smell wet ground floor or moss or something too. The easiest way to explain is that it smells like unheated Viet chips but amplified.

EO czar ceylon. The opening has some vices - this almost knock you out turpentine solventy thing going on. Very high frequency screetchy off the cap. But then it does settle almost immediately on skin to a pretty blue green walla vibe. For the price this is great. Leans more towards the blue green oceanic vibe than some of the more vanilla sweet forward walla oils I've tried lately. To my nose, this and oud ehab settle into something very similar about 1 hour in.
