Agarwood Oil is widely revered in perfumery, spiritual rituals, and traditional medicine. Its rich olfactory profile and fixative qualities make it an indispensable ingredient in high-end perfumes and incense. Additionally, it is used in skin care, wellness therapies, and emotional balancing practices due to its grounding, calming, and meditative effects. Agarwood Oil is produced in extremely limited quantities, which adds to its exclusivity and value.
