mesOud - NTT Sandalwood Batch II - tranquility in each swipe, a tingly and delicately herbal green sit on top a mouth-wateringly creamy and tenacious sandalwood profile.
I think the sample I have is ntt batch one and it is excellent.
 
It's so good. I managed to get some of this just by the skin of my teeth.
I remember what I messaged brother Mehmet, right after the package arrived I swiped some, and my message was something along the lines of, "this has risen to the top of my sandalwood oils". From the opening alone, it was love at first sniff, but that day, its longevity and the whiffs I'd be getting just moving around, secured it place at the top.

And I mean that price, this smelled like sandalwood oils 5x the price per gram, and easily if I might add!!
 
I think the sample I have is ntt batch one and it is excellent.
Batch One is this deep buttery, very slightly musky, delectable sort of profile in the vein of what I would think as a classical Mysore oil.

Batch Two feels more vibrant and airy, with more floral nuances, it doesn't feel as heavy as Batch One. It's the woody, almost pine like cooling which lifts this profile, and what I find so addictive!
 
I agree about batch one having considerable overlap with some of the Mysore oils I have smelled, including that musky aspect.
 
greensilani_oud - Silani Santal

First sandalwood oil and second time swiping. Opens up kinda spicy, I relate it to like the smell of dry shrimp maybe. Extremely buttery and creamy wood smell follows afterwards and persists for quite a bit. The scent definitely feels fat and thick. Enjoying adding this alongside swipes of oud
 
Respected Renton
Mysore No. 1
Mysore Regal
Santal Supreme 2

These three sandal oils I found up to the scratch.
Thank you, I think I will go with Mysore Regal. How is that? Mysore Regal isnt on his website, and do you mean Mysuru No. 1? And not Mysore No. 1? This one:
[Ouddict.com] Sandalwood oil of the day
 
I just applied a swipe of the Mysore oil from mesoud. This is a really nice sandalwood - seems like a fair price as well. Has a good woody multilayered character in the opening, warm woody heart, and the classic long lasting smooth dry woody tail. I know I wrote about this when I first got it, but I felt it deserved another mention. I was perusing his website and when I saw this oil, I was inspired to check it out again. This would be a solid oil for maceration or enjoying as perfume. 10g of this for $70 seems pretty danged reasonable 🙂
 
It was a very warm humid evening here in Dublin last night. I used some NTT sandalwood for it's woody deep scent. Got this about two years back from miskuamber. I also plastered a good layer of ruh khus on top. Turned out to be a great lasting combination in the heat. Think I'll do a mix of khus and sandalwood now.
 
I once had a vetiver rug / mat and i remember it being especially pleasant on hot days. I have to try to find another one

These type of rugs are priceless. I have a walla patta rug, woven from century old strands of walla patta. The Oudh tree in Sri Lanka gets its name from the practice that it would be used for bandage.

When I pray on it, it smells like I have smeared my face in the high quality sri Lankan Oudh oil.

I have been offered ridiculous money for it. Wouldn't think of selling it.
 
I don't know if it's common knowledge that in some parts of the world they make screens out of vetiver and wet them down in the summertime and it provides some kind of natural evaporative cooling.
 
Mysore Malaki by Tabeer Oud
Mysore No. 1 by Craft Oud


Indian distiller vendors have surpassed all others so far as Sandalwood Oil goes.

MM is the strongest Mysore Sandal I ever come across. The strongest Mysore Sandal signature and DNA this oil exudes. Mysore No. 1 is so delicate, refined, and glowing oil with a little pungent lactic shade.

A blend of these oils itself is a beautiful attar.
