Oud of the Day

[Averroes]

ASO Merauke. Not the brawniest of meroke ouds but perfectly wearable and tenacious, in its satin glove sort of way.

AA Malaya v2 and seriously considering getting a full bottle.
Lovely greenish scent with a mouthwatering cola Note and gives me quite a jungly vibe later on

 

[Amrfouad]

Namar..
Wow.. A beautiful well balanced Koh Kong from Habzoud. 🙂

Zamarad 2 by Habz

Im loving what this community has been putting out in this price bracket. I’m consistently blown away by our vendors and their ability to bring us complex AND affordable oils.

The best way I can describe Zamarad is creamy green mint filled jungle florals and incense.

 

[Amrfouad]

Zamarad 2 is a very nice oud indeed. Although not as pretty as the lovely Zamarad 1 but still impressive, especially for its price point. !!

IO Ceylon Royale II and Jinkoh Store Jinko Lokma

I still remember the first time I have sampled Ceylon Royale. Couldn't believe it was wood, not to mention Oud, what I was smelling. That was one of the very few oils that stuck with me in my olfactory memory. Was lucky to find a bottle here, after some time. This is pure Walla Patta bliss, one of the most beautiful oils to me.

Jinko Lokma is the cleanest Hindi I have ever smelled. Soft nutty woody aroma, milky, honey. Delightful. Marius puts out some amazing stuff. Everything that I had purchased from him so far is outstanding, and enjoyed everything else that I have tried.

I love what he’s putting out with Jinkoh Store. I’m like you in that I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve tried. I own everything he’s put out now except for the Hong Kong oil and the Thai oil he first released.

Just swiped the new Malaysian oil ‘Jinko Kurozato’ from Jinkoh Store

The name literally means “blackened sugar” so of course it has this blackened sugar and spiced cola vibe that hits right between your eyes. It’s rich, fuzzy and SWEET. Yet it’s natural aura keeps the sweetness from feeling cloying. This is literally a complete perfume in its own right and I know the words “office friendly” get thrown around a lot but this to me is the sweet that we all want to smell instead of ethyl maltol.

After a few minutes this reminds me of Dr. Pepper syrup with a hefty dose of molasses. I haven’t tried a lot of high end oils but the more well versed I become in the mid-range the more I fall in love with these heavy hitters. So far Habzoud, Al-Hashimi and now Jinko Store are by far changing the game for affordable top shelf oils.

Sound really awesome. Have a gram of it in the mail, cant wait!!

Dude it’s so goooooood. Marius says the sweetness will chill out with some aging since it’s a fresh oil but honestly I love it. Usually sweet ouds are fruity and cloying but this feels like freshly scorched créme brûlée where it’s creamy and sweet but feels more gourmand than cloying. I dunno. I just really love this smell.

Habzoud Aceh Ateeq on the left,
IO Aceh on the right.

Both very enjoyable, when I’m in the mood for this profile. I wish I had a chance to try Aceh agarwood to complete the experience.

 

[Kabir Attars]

It's Aceh is real nice...I had it on last night.

EO's Mission Cambodi Kinam

2nd try in over 2-3 years.

Review:
Scent profile: 2-2.5 out of 5
Sillage: 1/5
Longevity: 1.5/5
Effects: 100/5 (tried super tiny amounts twice today - both times it dialed down my mind to zen mode in few seconds. Not sure if any other oil has had such an effect on me hitherto. Perhaps Kinam/Kyara truly exists lol)

Maybe impulse is not all that bad.............don't quote me 🙂

 

[BeScho]

People’s Silani-EO thanks to @Lorenz_156 who was kind enough to provide me with a sample.
It’s nice, sweet&fruity but not my cup of tea scentwise unfortunately

Green Papua across from Zamarad II

Maybe my nose still needs to adjust but green papua doesn’t smell very green. Zamarad on the other hand intensified its greeness in contrast to GP. Malaysians are easily becoming my favorite region.

 

[Mario P.]

Hey guys ,thank you for your views 🙏
Today AA Mitikana 4k

 

[Habz786]

Not much into sprays other than Cashmere Oud by mfk but today in harrods store i smelt this and loved it! Anyone else tried it?

 

[TheOudDood]

Vietnan SK - smells pretty dead on to Oud yaqoub, or really any cultivated crassna. Washed it off after 30 mins 😂😂

mayala v2 - quite nice 😊

 

[Averroes]

EO Maroke SQ. Regal and deep (that hue and texture are ASO territory) but seemingly redundant with some of the very best of Ensar’s broad midrange like Tigerwood Royale and Sultani ‘90.
