Agarwood (OUD) 100% PURE Essential OIL
Experience the luxurious and exotic scent of 100% Indian Agarwood (Aquilaria species) Essential oil. Also known as oud, this oil is derived from the Aquilaria malaccensis Lam. tree, which produces a dark, fragrant resin when infected by the mould phialophora parasitica. This resin serves as the tree's natural defence mechanism and takes hundreds of years to produce, making oud one of the world's most expensive raw materials.
Oud has a distinct oriental vetiver-like aroma with hints of phenolic, smoky, earthy, and mossy undertones. It is highly sought after in various countries and is used in the production of perfumes, incenses, and ornamental displays. It is also a key ingredient in traditional and modern medicines.
Historically, agarwood has been mentioned in ancient literature and religious scriptures. The Sanskrit poet Kâlidâsa (c. 353–c. 420) wrote about it in his works, describing how women would use the yellow powder of sandal and the smoke of burning aloes (agarwood) to prepare for a feast of pleasures. It is also mentioned in the Bible (Duke 2007).
Part of the woody family, agarwood essential oil is a must-have for anyone looking for a unique and luxurious scent. Add it to your collection today and experience the exotic aroma of oud.
