Agarwood oil
Agarwood Oil, also known as Oudh Oil, is a rare and luxurious essential oil derived from the heartwood of the Aquilaria tree, primarily found in Southeast Asia. This dark, viscous oil is extracted through steam distillation of infected wood—formed when the tree produces a dark, aromatic resin in response to fungal attack. The resulting oil is one of the most precious and complex natural fragrances in the world, known for its deep, woody, smoky, and slightly sweet aroma.
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.
