Was fortunate to be able to sample this oil, and it is a marvel. If you like Chinese oud, you will LOVE this one.
It has a purity and depth you can easily appreciate. The orange peel notes are integrated with this gorgeous animalic note. Not the classic Hindi barn but reminiscent of it. Clearly an inherent scent from the wood.
It is hard for me to describe this scent but it is beautiful. Not quite as sour as the Hainan 2005 to my recollection but I need to do a head to head.
I will have to spend some more with it but I can safely say, this is the best Chinese oil I have tried.
