JADE IBIS 2022 • 100% wild Oud • Pursat province lowlands Cambodia
(100% wild artisanal Oud oil, authentic wild-harvested natural agarwood essential oil)
• highlights: Smooth and steady classic Cambodian Oud, mostly sweet but with poignant, evocative bitter aspects. Light tobacco, autumn leaves, molasses, natural leather, cooked/dried stonefruit, and new wood are thematic here.
• material: 100% wild Aquilaria crassna, from a group of a few mature trees growing close together in the wild forest lowlands of the Pursat region of Cambodia.
• production: Distilled in October 2022 in steel with a glass collector. Dedicated and verified artisan distiller. Lab-tested for purity and authenticity.
• scent description: This very classic Cambodian Oud stays strong, smooth, and steady through its glowing golden unfolding. Some interesting, unique notes feature strongly at the outset; blackstrap molasses, autumn leaves, red ginseng root, pleasant horse & stable (clean, moderate). These notes quickly relax and harmonize the primary and more consistent classic Oud notes that define and carry this beautiful oil; blonde pipe tobacco, natural suede leather, buckwheat honey, dried apricot, peach jam, sultana raisins, and freshly cut new lumber. Expands and mellows through the drydown into a golden peachy-marmalade and carpenter’s shop aura, with most of the other notes settling comfortably into the background. There is something very nostalgic and soothing about this very special aromatic journey.
• notes of controversy: Minimal. A warm touch of “horse and stable” without being “barny” in a challenging way. The red ginseng and molasses notes bring a slight bitterness to the overall bouquet, mostly in the first hour of drydown.
About all Oud from Aroma Sublime
• How we describe Oud: our scent notes begin about 60 seconds after application to skin, not from the bottle. Why: Hype, Poetry, or Precision?
• Wild means wild: no human intervention before harvest. Anything cultivated or semi-wild is labelled as such. Sustainability in Sourcing Wild Agarwood
• One tree where possible: we prefer single-tree distillations, otherwise a few mature trees of known provenance. Standards and Nomenclature
• Oud or agarwood: on this site, Oud means the oil and agarwood means the raw wood.
