Oud of the Day

[Select989]

Lucky oud - Assam Emerald ii

mellow creamy Hindi niceness. A bit tangy a touch floral

 

[Select989]

@AlHindOud - Brunei gold 2022

melon, cinnamon, cream. Super delicate aroma. Took a while for me to appreciate this one, glad I didn’t give up on it.

oud yusha - ensa roud

 

[Rezwan]

Jinkoh Store: Emperor of Meghalaya

Loads of brown sugar, honey, and caramelized sweetness, with a vaporous vanillic touch.

 

[oud.time]

The Attar Store - Encens Prachin
Sweet and sour apple. Tea . Oudy incense. Top notch Thai.

EO - Tigerwood 1990
Diesel, leathery band aids, some sweetness, oudy incense. Classic oil. I like mixing it with patchouli as I think they compliment each other well.

Continuing my exploration of the habzoud oils. Today I am wearing the Jaya Qadeem and Taj Mahal Hindi.
What a contrast! I explored them a little bit before on paper strips but on the skin its a completely different story.

Jaya Qadeem: lacquer, cedar, forest floor, mint, refined. I could see myself wearing this regularly.
Taj Mahal: Some light animal barn, hints of orange chocolate, desi ghee. Barn wears of rather quickly and becomes sweet and well rounded. Something I cannot put my finger on, but I just keep smelling for more! Something to indulge in at home.

Waliullah Shah wild Nagaland, Oxford Ouds. Nice deep tone, toffee

Meitei by Agarwood Assam. Bought over 4years ago! Still have practically a full bottle and I feel like I;ve worn this a ton - at this rate it'll last me ooo...a further 15, 20 years?! madness. Kinda puts the excess of my collection into perspective really, considering that I barely finish 0.2ml samples. Madneess indeed.

Anyway, fantastic oil. A tiny bit of barn but not overly so, a very deep red hue. It's strong and loud but super smooth. I'm quite ill recently, gone from just a cough to having a blocked nose so my sense of smell (which is rubbish at best usually) is worse so

oud ezekiel - ensaroud

 

[EJayB]

A Laos oil from the 90’s
It came out of SQ’s private oils not a state gifted oil
So honey sweet, very smooth very relaxing

 

[Bazungu]

Couldn't contain myself...it is Friday after all. Put a swipe of Imperial Oud Brunei 2017 sample that I still had laying around on my left wrist, and a swipe of Habzoud Oud Caliph on my right. I'm in olfactory heaven right now, that is for sure!
Interestingly, I notice these have a very calming effect on the mind as well.

 

[Imran297]

Rising Phoenix 2019 Vietnam. For some reason I couldn’t really smell it the first time I wore it…but from the 2nd time on…absolutely love it. Smells a bit similar to Cambodi Royal by The Oud Lab

 

[The Scent Guru]

Testing two oils by Oud Tripura. Both new gen, ultra smooth incense Twilight and Illusion

 

[Mario P.]

Oudbase Ceylon Nirvana
Al Hashimi Eden

 

[OudForm]

Kinabalu Gold- Sabah by Alhind Oud

Exceptional top tier oil. Glad I bought it. Thinking of a backup.

 

[iori]

Oriscent YCA
more pinpoint/zoomed in kinam profile than NLTD, strong piercing aroma with more bitterness too along with elegant fruit/sweets notes.

 

[Musk Rahil]

Peoples silani-Ensar oud

 

[Renzo C]

EO Kyara Ltd
Surprised by the metallic/ iron mineral note…not quite sure what to make of that part, but as a whole the oil is mesmerizing

 

[symbebekos]

Olefaktory Ve Dep
