Aster Oudh
I have just applied a dab of the Vetiver from @EJayB which I got as a sample...thanks EJ...."Bai Kinam" wild chinese kinam co2 from Rising Phoenix Perfume.
So far I am only up to smelling from the vial and have not applied to skin yet because of such a small amount that I have.
It smells luxurious! Not anything like the many different wild Vietnamese kinams that I much preffer, but these are what I have been experiencing the past 3 years so this one is completely new to me. It definitely is a very beautiful aroma and pretty strong.
I WILL be back once I apply. I am waiting for the nose to tell me when it feels ready to extreme aromatic workouts.

Cultivated Kinam oil from Ejay Olefaktory
very fresh oil so the opening is turning my nose off to a point I do not smell anything and the things I smell are this wet wood fiber and walnut shell like someone else mentioned BUT BEHOLD....this is some extremely layered stuff. after the opening it it has so much going on I lost count and memory of the order. There is camphoric, lemony, sweet, sour, mint, slight vanilla, sweet cream and a lot more...towards the dry down it starts smelling like room temp cultivated kinam with hints of heated kinam left and right. I will give it another go with a clean nose. There are DEFINITELY ASO al malek al ceeni notes in it also, no more than 2 but they are very pronounced and this according to my memory. I will do a side by side to make sure I am not tripping. I am not comparing these oils in any way, Ceeni is a beautiful Hainan legend and very expensive stuff but there are those pronounced notes in this ck oil for sure.
Viet-k oil from Ejay
This shiet is nice! To my nose almost identical to Agar Aura King K Nam! These two oils are so similar to me I cant believe the price difference! Well done!
Green Malay Ejay
Very nice powdery malay narcotic.
Kannamusk Ejay
I have not tested on skin yet but it smells like strong hemp oil so far. I am sure on skin it will be much different. I was expecting hash smell but no hash. Very nice and VERY generous is Olefaktory for this sample!! Of course I will redo when I apply to skin!

Kyara Di Ser perfume
I was expecting much better representation of kyara with this one and it could have been done if they had removed a couple of their ingredients. I think they tried to replicate the heated wood aroma more than the room temperature of Kyara. It is not bad as a perfume, pretty nice actually but they added more notes and missed it in my opinion.
I have a few Vetiver oils now and this one looks strikingly different in colour for a start. Its much liter and from the vial it has a very low escape scent from the vial.
It grows stronger after about a half an hour, which was catching me off balance because for the first half hour I had my nose stuck to the back of my wrist.....then it just seems to bloom out with this earthy almost wet mud type notes. I am a few hours trialing it and it is turning notes again....has an early morning (before the sun rises) dew on the grass scent from grass cut the day before....quite magical really...
This is very relaxing......
