1. What is Oud Agarwood? (Pure & Natural Wood) 🌴
Oud Agarwood refers to the actual, untreated wood chips harvested directly from the rare Aquilaria tree.
-
How it’s made: When an Aquilaria tree produces a dark, fragrant resin deep inside its trunk, that resinous wood becomes Agarwood. The wood chips are harvested, dried, and presented in their 100% natural state.
-
What it looks like: Raw, dark, fibrous wood chips or pieces. No added oils, no perfumes, no chemicals.
-
The Scent: Earthy, deep, smoky, woody, and intensely rich. As the resin bubbles over hot charcoal, it releases a pure, resinous aroma that lingers for hours.
In Short: Oud Agarwood is pure, untreated resinous wood straight from nature.
2. What is Bakhoor? (The Fragrant Artisanal Blend) 🌸
Bakhoor is a crafted incense mixture where wood chips are soaked and infused with a variety of aromatic oils.
-
How it’s made: Perfumers start with wood chips (such as light agarwood, sandalwood, or cedarwood) and soak them in a custom recipe of essential oils, amber, musk, rose, and floral extracts.
-
What it looks like: Dark, moist wood chips or compacted, easy-to-break incense blocks.
-
The Scent: Sweet, warm, floral, and multi-layered. Because it is a blend, Bakhoor fills your room with a sweet, luxurious home fragrance immediately.
In Short: Bakhoor is a masterfully blended recipe of wood chips infused with rich perfume oils.
