if you like Purple Kinam, you can try this one it is 100% same for a fraction of the cost:

That's quite a claim indeed, Peter.
Are you the vendor on etsy? If not, how did you come across it?
As an aside to all other distinguished members of these here forums, the only other oil that I have tried that begins to approach EO PK is FO Piara, but then it only captures roughly 70% of all the notes being found in PK. Piara is an extremely good value oud for what it is, but PK in so many ways stands alone before the forum in it's sheer Imperium (in the ancient roman definition) of what is is.
For all newcomers to these parts I would strongly urge you all to get even the tiny sample size to appreciate it as is one of a group of very rare
Ouds that those who are appreciate of the art grok on so many levels and marvel at it's sheer brilliance but is also admired by all and sundry out there.

Hi Robert, no i am not the vendor i am just an oud aficionado, well at least i was one at an earlier time.
i just found it browsing etsy and it look good for me ask few questions the vendor and decide to try it. than the real surprise was when receive it and smell it it was 100% KR not matter how i test it and sniff it. well everybody is different and my
olfactory system is not that great, but another person who likes KR very much and i recommend it to try it say that is: very close not 100% identical but even better with more complexity and depth but slightly less refined than the KR.
