Beautiful beast. I didn't wear this for some long time, when I got it was still fresh in 2019. This is utterly beautiful, robust hindi from Panbari Reserve in Assam. It's meditative stuff, aging for 2 years now, I can really see the difference aging makes with this one.
At the beginning it was really bright and would punch your senses upon application, a wild punch. It now mellowed down much more, still gives me a headrush (light-headedness) when I open the cap, but the punch became a friendly fist bump. It is a fierce oud, but once you know it, you will see it's sweeter, narcotic, and friendly-wild side that will take you to the jungle in Assam. You will feel the clouds floating over the hills of the Assamese jungle, you are trekking there and the rain is pouring heavily. Luckily you have found a shelter, it's a old house amidst the jungle in Assam, you knock on the door and some foreign people open the door to invite you in.
They care for you and you are at first unsure about them, if you should trust them. Then you are amazed by their hospitality and the kindest-raw gesture they show you. They give you a cup of Assamese tea, as you take a sip and look at the heavy clouds, the rain drops, and the thick-green jungle of Assam, your mind is in ease and you are warm and relaxed. This oud is that shelter.
