## About
Some scents are best met slowly. Here, Thai agarwood is diluted to 10% in organic jojoba, a gentler, more approachable way to come to know a base note much sought after in perfumery, one drop at a time.The oud is hydro-distilled from the wood of naturally farmed Aquilaria crassna trees in northern Thailand. Its character is deep, woody and earthy, stable and strong: multi-layered and slightly musky, with an animalic edge and an unexpected sweetness in its depths. If rocks had roots, they would smell like this. It is amazingly tenacious, and a smidgeon on a scent strip lingers for hours.Many high-end perfumes contain agarwood, which you may also know as oud or aloeswood. It is also available pure and undiluted.DetailsBotanical name: Aquilaria crassnaOrigin: northern ThailandMethod: hydro-distilled from the woodDilution: 10% in organic jojoba oilCharacter: earthy, woody, rare, tenaciousHow to usePlace a drop on a scent strip and let it unfold over the hours, or use it as the base note of your own blends. Safety: there are no known contraindications or warnings, though agarwood may act as a sedative. Keep out of reach of children. Bring it home for the long, slow evenings.
