Conquerer of Modern hindi ouds and sultan of hindi profile
In Start this smell likes an outstanding Borneo oud with bitter Jasmanic Rosy ,Airy tangy zesty ,slightly leathery aroma of true hindi DNA wood on very low heat like heat not letting go of aroma incense truly and restricting its soul in this phase which you will feel aromas are packed strongly in centre so you are getting just initial whiffs which are crisp not the heart of this wood piece which sultan saladin struggling to reveal its darkness but in artistic way of distiller step by step not like unbalanced brust its burnning with time its getting potent opening its self to give you complete packet of oudish aromas with heart of slight jasminic rosy crisp bitter aroma coming up on you ,soury potent , wet resinious wild clean base is tangy,little sweet jasmanic you can feel the water,warmth of fire heat,its juicy a slight musky tone is there in the heart of this oil its the cleanest hindi oud profile and sharp like sultan salah din sword , transition like its colour transparent .there is no concept of barnyish not even a slight hint .
This oil is class its masterpiece.
This oud is a new demension in its self A high grade hindi can also smell like outstanding borneo in start.

Al Hashimi - Al Hind. Hmm. At first, it smells like a, well how can I put it - a "standard" Hindi, very pungent, barn. It's now ~5hrs into the drydown and is extremely nice. It's similar (though haven't worn this in ages to fully remember) Assam Organic 2005 by Ensar. This drydown is different though, it's actually exquisite - AO was very peppery and spicy, this is far smoother and, well, yea - super smooth and refined.

I also wore Tariq 2 (by Al Hashimi) last night which seemed way more Assam/Hindi-esque than I recall from Tariq 1 (which I pretty much finished my sample of last week - but put it under my chin and then went out on my bike, so the oil probably got all rubbed off onto my helmet chin strap!). I'll have to compare both side-by-side, but it didn't feel like the Cambodi side of this oil was too present from my scent memory of Tariq 1

I also commend Al Hashimi on their pricing, as there's only been a very marginal increase on some of these re-releases compared to the original's costing.

This one is overlooked. It's just as good as some of the recent well received Vietnamese oils like Vietnan SK (and smells similar to that one as well). It also has some Borneo/Brunei facets to my noise. Really good oil despite being newly distilled, and it will get even better I'm sure.

This was mad - I finished work last night (about 8hrs after application) and intended to put a swipe around my neck or behind my ears as I was cycling for an hour, before an hour and half martial arts lesson, and then a 20min bike ride home.
I forgot, but I was sure I could still smell it coming off my hands during the bike ride. This is - through my microfibre gloves, while my hands are very slightly bent out in front of me, holding my handlebars - so at least a foot and half away from my face.


Today I wearing Al Iksyr by Al Hashimi, which is much lighter in its scent. Far less barny too (only slightly so at the start), being a codistill of Malay & Assam wood. I don't get a Malaysian feel from the oil but it's having an effect on the Hindi element to tame it considerably. Very enjoyable
 
I typically wear quite green oils on Fridays. Today’s is EO Sultan Salahuddin.
Ethereal jungle top notes swirling with a dense green liqueur. Very satisfying.

It’s a shame that this series was laid to rest. So many fabulous oils were born from these co-distills. A Sultan revival series would be very well received by many of us. Hint hint and wink.

I believe it’s that wonderful PNG wood that made most Sultan Series oils very nice.
