Xiangshui
Imagine the finest piece of dense, dark king-grade wood sizzling away kodo-style on a heater, releasing a captivating aroma with each bubble. This is the ultimate Oud experience, and Oud Xiangshui embodies it from start to finish. Distilled a decade ago in China from old, sinking-grade Sumatran microcarpa wood – a rarity in itself – this oil is a true benchmark of top-shelf agarwood.
The color is a stunning pristine pale yellow, similar to sandalwood, a hue not often seen in Oud oils. And the aroma? Sublime. Off the dipstick, you’ll be transported to a world of golden incense, tangy grapefruit, and white flowers. Once applied, the oil hits you with a fizzy, piercing, almost aquatic antique woody opening that will leave you breathless.
This oil is reminiscent of the finest Borneo oil, with a real oriental feel to it. The whole experience from start to end is that of a Kodo session, with the chip on low heat note lingering for hours on end. It’s like stepping into a classic 60’s Mercedes, the smell of the interior taking you back to a bygone era.
Oud Xiangshui is a masterpiece, a true work of art that commands attention. With its excellent projection and long-lasting fragrance, it’s an experience you won’t soon forget. And at Habzoud, you’re getting an oil that normally commands a $2500+ price tag for 3g, but you’re paying less for a lot more. Trust us, this oil is worth every penny and more. Get ready to be blown away!
