The crown of Chinese agarwood
the holy grail
Hainan
The crown of Chinese agarwood, Hainan is the holy grail for collectors from this part of the oud world. With vintage wild batches fetching eye-watering sums, the challenge to distil and obtain vintage oils only becomes more difficult.
a novelty in oud
china
A cornerstone of the world of oud, the greatest batches of oud predominantly head to China these days, with demand continuing to skyrocket.
Somewhere deep within China, a profound breakthrough in distillation technique combined with impossible to obtain material has led to some incredible oils with novel notes and totally unique profiles.
the finest sources
vintage material
The key to distilling great oud oil lies in the source material curated for such feats. The finest vintage materials are held by only a few today, difficult to obtain and released only to those deemed worthy.
This process enables those of us with the right vision to obtain otherwise impossible materials, allowing us to continue distilling phenomenal oils that would be impossible to craft for most.
a revelation
the soul of Hainan
The Chinese oud world is insular. Gaining access to these stocks is astonishingly difficult, requiring years of relationship building and the exchange of significant amounts of money and agarwood.
What unlocks after this time is a revelation in what certain regions of oud once were like, particularly the elusive region of Hainan.
With the commercial distillers today squeezing out every fibre of farmed wood into monotonous mass produced oils, we present here a unique opportunity to go back in time, to experience the soul of Hainan's fragrance at its very best.
