Brisk bike ride on this Florida barrier island (Merritt) with a sky getting increasingly darker as afternoon storms are approaching. Small dot beneath the nose of the most exquisite Kannan Koh. Sometimes I relax and meditate, sometimes get out in nature and breathe deeply of this magic. I hope...

On this beautiful sunny "spring" day in Florida with cool temps (20 C, 70 F) I must extoll the pleasure of a glorious Maroke "Xiang Liao Ling". A most unique fragrance among ouds, it always demands my attention every time I apply. Pure heaven to inhale this magic. Once home enhancing the...

Great experience with Satori Fusho this morning. Such a rich and beautiful distillation of pure kyen in a steel pot conditioned with the previously distilled New Guinea/ Brunei Sultan Mustafa. For hours I've enjoyed breathing in a natural fragrance of multi-faceted elegance. This happens to be...

I am so thankful that you made Homeros in an attar format. I enjoy it that way and find all the layers fascinating!

This morning: Homeros Attar This evening: EO Oud Shuayb (2011) ...Such a great Manipur oil. Unfolds for hours. Exquisite...

Unfortunately scent description is not one of my strong suits which puts me at a loss in this game. All I can say is that I love the vintage Tigerwoods and this was a chance to own another, even older, version which form a nice trio in my collection. Wish I could be of more help.

Just missed (I guess me and a lot of other folks) acquiring the rare and super exotic Unnu Kasra. Two hours after the intro email landed I tried to take action since at first glance it was already running low. I think everyone must've discovered it at the same time because even the server backed...

IMHO these Tigerwood oils are so great...even though I already own '95 & Royal I am glad I added a 2 g '90 to the collection. You can't go wrong.. Still amazed to be able to acquire 30 year aged ouds of this caliber for sale prices. Thanks Ensar.

Thanks Josh for keeping this great resource alive. I was checking over the summer and was sad to see the site asleep. With some great new expressions from Rasoul and your new moderation I'm very happy this Sunday morning. SOTD: EO Royal Guallam

Evening walk enjoying one of my original favorites Taigo Senkoh. 16 knot seabreeze blowing wafts of beauty and inspiration into my soul. Organic Thai crassna that's as Senkoh lovable as it's wild counterparts Chugoku and Suriranka.

Today marks the second anniversary of my first oud experience. Khmer Xtreme was the first one I tried...I haven't been the same since. What an exciting adventure... I googled Khmer Xtreme and found this amazing video I had never seen before. I hope it's ok to share it...your creativity and the...

Activity log Thursday: Maroke "ancient" & contemporary. Morning: Sultani 1990 Afternoon>evening: Aroke Roshi...occasional mustache touch ups: Musc Royale. Good Friday: Borneo comparisons inspired by Rasoul S B3k comments above (can't explain differences...just love each and every one): a.m. EO...

As quirky as it sounds ...it just works for me. Like yesterday my main experience was EO Mustapha No. 7. Very intense like musk and like an ancient smell which plays out with time and a lot of nuances can be noticed. I can even enjoy an oil that intense for like a half hour as i drive to work...

Today's SOTD Morning > afternoon: EO Oud Ehab Evening 11 mile bike ride and meditation: EO Suriranka Naya Both of these oils are so beautiful. Transportive. Sound track today included this hauntingly beautiful song: David Crosby "What's Broken" Another video I had to share just for...

I apply a small amount from a sample vial to the columella (the skin between the nostrils) or basically swipe a little on my mustache just below my nose. Though it may seem silly compared to a traditional swipe on the wrist or pulse point areas I started doing this on day one. To me it just...

Aceh Candan is one of my favorites. I appreciate your description since I find it hard to describe these most complex of fragrances. And yes I like it from beginning to end. I broke it out to since I heard it is maybe the closest analog in my collection to EO Oud Royale Maluku about which I'm...

Thanks Rasoul, for the suggestions, and as always, your eloquent descriptions. So much fun to read! I actually have both. Assamugo Senkoh and a .3 sample of Chugoku Naya. I look forward to comparing and contrasting them. Also looking forward to compare and contrasting the Tigerwoods Royal, & 95...

Morning drive to work: EO Chugoku Jinko Evening bike ride: EO Chugoku Senkoh Soundtrack: new Pat Metheny "From This Place" Blessed to be so fortunate. Praying for the sick and medical front lines that are there to help. Praying for all of Earth's peoples.

Starting this beautiful Sunday morning with EO Oud Yunus with Kyara Kinam slowly unwinding in its burner. This one and EO Oud Musa are dear since all I have is the .3 from the legends sampler so it is a rare treat. In same family to my nose with EO' s Shibli, Isa and Yoshi and the Assams...

Morning and daytime accompaniment while sheltering in place: EO American Oud 10.5 mile breezy bike ride: Loving deep drafts of EO Betonamu Senkoh Great pleasure abounds in simply breathing in...what a concept! Somehow we all get this. With social distancing and clean hands we will "flatten the...
