Can’t wait to see these oils and with your prices I’m sure they will sell out fast each time. 🙏🏼 Would love wood samples of the materials used in the distillation. Nice reflux still you got there

I have some blue lotus oil coming from EOApothecare on Etsy that I am very excited about. Has anyone here tried anything from this vendor? She also has some oud oil that I want to try at some point, and many other aromatics as well.

I am particularly excited about the blue lotus oil because she laments the lack of real blue lotus available, and claims to have found some real blue water lily, which is the one mentioned by Egyptians(and is a water lily, not a lotus, despite the common nickname). There are no true lotuses that are blue, only water lilies. Nymphaea caerulea is the real Egyptian blue water lily, and the one that people in the know wish they could find(like me).

I have some "blue lotus" oil from Ensar, and I have tried a "blue lotus" attar from JK, but I think it is safe to assume that neither Ensar nor JK have legitimate blue water lily, and they certainly don't have real blue lotus (which does not exist). I know they are not nymphaea caerulea because JK calls his attar "Thai blue lotus", and Thailand is where the fake nymphaea caerulea replacements are grown. If you want to see what one of these fake N. Caerulea flowers looks like, then just look at the picture attached to Ensar's "blue lotus", that is the fake kind that is grown in Thailand.

If the woman from EOApothecare knows what she is talking about, and is telling the truth, then this is a rare find and I am excited to try it. "Blue lotus" from Ensar and JK both smell great and I am curious to see what real N. Caerulea is like. I can only hope that it is actually what she is claiming it to be.

I would be interested to hear your thoughts once you get the blue lotus oil. It is something I have considered buying but it just never manages to make the top of my list. I have ordered from EOApothecare once because I wanted to try the old Fritzsche brothers sandalwood oil. It is definitely nice but the price just doesn't justify getting more unless I get 15+ ml. Good vendor to deal with though.

My inbound has arrived. very generous sample pack from MesOud, thank you for all the time and effort putting that together.

For now all I will say is there are some really nice oud and other oils in the sample pack.

Once I’ve made sure I can secure some for myself, I will let you know what they are.

Beautiful orders coming to you believe me! You did great!
I'm just gonna ask you a favour and hide that CAM in your drawer and never open it. Not until you "live", and I mean live, with the oud oils you ordered from the other vendors! You'll see for yourself!

Thanks for your confirmation 👍 And don't worry. I'm pretty sure the other stuff will come in long before the 14 day minimum lead-time on the Perfumist order. And anyway, I'm passing the oil (unopened) to an expert.

Truth be told, I'm rooting for the Perfumist to send something authentic. What can I say, I'm a sucker for a redemption arc.

Meghalaya 1977 and Hoi An from Ensar. Couldn’t find anything about them on the forum so I’ll say something on the ‘oud of the day’ thread when they arrive.

I posted a review on the Meghalaya recently in the review section. It’s an interesting example of a vintage pre-fermentation age.

Personally, I found the description on EO’s page to be spot on for that particular oil. This is usually not the case, in my opinion, of most EO write ups of his ouds.

Are you not going to sniff the questionable order at all, lol, as a ‘reference’?

Also curious to read your thoughts on the Bortnikoffs… my opinions on them changed after trying Areej’s History of Oud collection.

Great, I'll go read it. The search function on this website is pretty bad so it's sometimes hard to find what I am looking for.

I think he's leaving it unopened to leave out any question that he may have tampered with himself, even accidentally.

Yes. That was my thinking. Not sure if it's necessary but it's easy enough to do.
