I am trying to order some too!!!
Noice ! Trying ? Having that issue submitting the order ?I am trying to order some too!!!
lol nah, I just ordered. I did not realize it was already on the website 🙂Noice ! Trying ? Having that issue submitting the order ?
Ah ok , yea it was a sudden release.lol nah, I just ordered. I did not realize it was already on the website 🙂
Just arrived, I tried a small sample (maybe 0.05g) on cool coals and it started bubbling almost instantly. Very resinous! Half the chips are 3g+ , cleaned very well. I’m a little noseblind today so I couldn’t figure out the smell, but it’s definitely smoother than other Hindi I’ve tried, stronger but smoother if that makes sense. A little on the floral side too.View attachment 40947
120g of Manipur wild “king Muri” inbound , got it from a friend for a very good price. Will use some of it to make an old incense, 1:1:1 of powdered Indian oud, brown ambergris, and musk. All kneaded together with heat then left to rest.
السلام عليكم ورحمة الله brother 🤝A bunch of Thai oud samples, some from ancient trees. + MAMY ruh khus 1, Malik shmama, ruh gulab, and 5 attars from ML Ramnarain.
And in another package 4 Hindi chips samples from imphal and nagaland, and hindi+burmese oud oils. From a new dealer (fingers crossed hoping it’s not painted plywood)

I’ll review these when they arrive inshallah
وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاتهالسلام عليكم ورحمة الله brother 🤝
If you’re someone who likes Khus, I highly recommend @An Najwa
His Khus is custom distilled according to his standards & is by far the best I’ve ever tried.
From the commercial houses, ML Ramnarain is nice but still behind An Najwa. Even for rose oils, An Najwas’ Gul-e-Muhammad shines like Sirius in the night sky.
You can drop brother Jabir a message here or Instagram.وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته
Thanks for the recommendation, I ordered the ones I did because I wanted to experience the classic ruh khus from those houses. I will order An Najwa’s ruh khus inshallah later, I just checked their website and it’s out of stock. From your review and others’ it seems like a very good choice. How does it compare to the ones I ordered?
i might pick a couple of those for next round! im going for the uncommon ones: by-absolute and "trilogy" which is a blend of 3 countries rosesThere's a lot of variety in rose absolutes FYI and the really good ones are not so easy to find! I felt mesoud's centifolia absolute was really juicy and appealing. Also fraterworks sells a select grade of Bulgarian from Peyan Bertrand for a reasonable price - quite a bit more saturated and engaging than the Alteya absolute (which is nice this year). Eden's roses have been mid grade in my experience but I haven't tried any from them recently. Perfume Supply House has / had a really nice rose absolute (turkey) from Robertet. Really surprisingly nice notes came out of that one in a blend or two.
The PB oil is worth getting just because it really reminds me of the best i have smelled over the years. Fraterworks also have a rose "ultimate extract" which is extracted from the flowers leftover post-distillation. It is very thick, viscous like vetiver, deep brownish red, jammy and very rosy with some unusual accessory notes. Also quite cheap because it is from waste. It is not "ultimate" in the sense of the best but "ultimate" as in the final thing that can be extracted after the whole process.i might pick a couple of those for next round! im going for the uncommon ones: by-absolute and "trilogy" which is a blend of 3 countries roses
