You must choose one bottle of Oud for the rest of your life...

Let’s say you’re in a weird predicament. You get one botte only, and you much choose wisely because you’ll never smell another oil again. What’s your choice?

Really tough one for me...and I know full well the answer could be different one year from now. I think I’d hold my Hainan 05, Sultani ‘90, Tigerwood 95 in my hand, smell each and give them a tearful goodbye, as I grabbed hold of Oud Ahmad. Final answer.

I did also post this on another forum, but I thought it was a fun question, so I’m sorry if this is a duplicate for you.

From my collection, that's easy. Oud Ahmad

Now if I had Ensar's entire collection on hand, I'd be sweating between Jayapula, Pusong LTD, Kyara LTD....

But Oud Ahmad holds it's own even in that line up... a bit of insider's insight for everyone: Get it while you can because I wouldn't be surprised to see it discontinued any moment now. Perhaps not officially running low, but for an oud of its status I'd personally consider it as such, and I'd reckon we'll not see it below its current price ever again.

Wow, this is a really tricky question. For me out of my current collection it would be Guallam no1 or maybe Suriranka 2 or would it be Tigerwood Royal? It could even be that the dense sweet red cherry tobacco quality of Kinam Rouge seduces me in the end. When someone poses a question like this you realise how precious and unique these oils are, loved by me in equal measure but at the same time my eyes are firmly on the next purchase. Which reminds me @A Coburn keep two gram of the Ahmad for the end of the month before discontinuing it :eek:;):p:p lol... I don’t think Oud can ever be monogamous relationship, polygamy is the only way to go lol (wife if you’re reading this it’s an expression)
