Aceh candan
A totally different shade of purple and one that is far removed from the purple in Malay oils and maluku/png. Again, in first few minutes or even a bit longer is not even really oud as we have come to know it. Totally different beast. A bit later the oud character shows and of course the lively dry down.
@Ensar Oud
Is it a Hirta thing or distilation setup that gives this oil a very low viscosity and almost thin texture? Will this oil gain unctuousness as it ages? Not that any of this really matters. Just curious. The scent is anything but thin. The projection, the lasting power, the dynamics are pretty spectacular.

The peacock oil came out to play tonight. Agar aura nashila. So much to like about this unique oil. Truly unique in every way. It’s texture, core, vibe, tonal frequency vibrations... some Nagaland like notes. The same blue in Hindustan 1 and Ensar Brunei superior wood aka black baram. Toned down here and doesn’t carry that energy attached to the former, but scent wise it close enough that brings up the comparison. Then a certain soft black and of course that pink candy phase.
And dessert later on was b3k. Cinnamon, honey, bee pollen, spice. Malinau on steroids. Old school. turkish get up drills. Lovely stuff. So geographically specific scent. Malinau and tarakan in Borneo are something else and of course the true Brunei woods. Those hard to explain bitter psychedelic blue/black blue Italian plum liqueur, unusual spices. Unique notes.
i love my Green oils, malay and vietnamese of course. but life without the gentle hindis like chugoku, shah jahan and hindustan 1 is sad.
on this beautiful spring morning both shah jahan and chugoku senkoh are doing their thing and with ease displaying the brilliance and magic of hindi oud. mighty fine oils. imperial oud deserves plenty of credit for this oil which in my humble yet strong opinion is easily by far the single greatest oil i have tried from them and i have had probably over 20-25 oils of theirs.
