Oud (Agarwood) Essential Oil is a highly sought after oil derived from the resinous heartwood of the Aquilaria tree which is native to parts of South East Asia. This exquisite oil is obtained through a meticulous and time-consuming process of extraction and so becomes a rare and expensive ingredient in natural perfumery.

Agarwood Essential Oil has a unique and complex aroma that can be described as rich, sweet, woodsy and earthy. The scent is deeply alluring and has a depth to it that evolves over time, making it a special and cherished choice for perfumery and spiritual practices.

The Aquilaria tree also known as the Agarwood, Aloeswood or Eaglewood naturally produces resin when it becomes infected with a specific type of mold. This in turn triggers a response that leads to the formation of the highly aromatic agarwood. The heartwood is then carefully harvested by hand and undergoes a steam distillation or CO2 extraction process to obtain the precious essential oil.

Agarwood Essential Oil is renowned for its grounding and calming effects making it a popular choice in meditation and spiritual practices. The aroma of Agarwood Essential Oil is said to create a sense of tranquility helping to attain a deeper state of relaxation.

In addition to its aromatic qualities, Agarwood Essential Oil is also believed to possess therapeutic benefits in cosmetic uses.

Absolutes and pure essential oils should always be diluted with a carrier oil such as grapeseed oil or sweet almond oil before using on the skin. A patch test is recommended to see if your skin is sensitive to the product. If blending into lotions etc. 1-3% of the absolute is usually about right.
