Malik Ghabat Leyte 2024
Literally the King of Leyte's Jungle
the most sought after region
Leyte
Uniquely obsessed over by every culture, Leyte has become synonymous with ultra high grade oud, becoming the Nha Trang of the Philippines. For many years, there was no bad batch of Leyte: it was all jaw dropping, eye watering and a joyous delight to even look at, let alone heat or burn.
Today as stocks dwindle, other regions and jungles from the Philippines dominate, with inferior aroma and aesthetics to the peak of the Leyte era. It has become incumbent for every collector across the globe to cherish what they have, for the golden era is not returning.
scent profile
a leyte classic
Leyte has a uniqueness, a sweet chocolatey and famed "Cambodi" like aroma, a feat present in the lower grade batches of wood right up to the dark resin dripping batches.
Today, Leyte is several fold what it was a few years ago, with the best woods becoming astonishingly rare and fetching exuberant sums at auction. The search for high grade material goes on. With such high demand and so little to go around, it isn't any surprise that hardly anyone has attempted to craft an oil from this region's precious aromatic wood.

Malik Ghabat Leyte
Last year we released a private batch of a unique Leyte oil, mimicking the sweet Cambodi infused aroma of the peak batches of Leyte oud from 2016 to 2020. To no surprise it sold out privately to no more than 3 collectors. Fortunately for the community, we had another batch cooking in the distillation pots.
Literally every collector we know of is hoarding Leyte. Take one of our closest friends, ordinarily buying only decor pieces of oud. The exception? Leyte. Even the guys at the top of the oud chain will take whatever chips and chunks they can of this precious region.
Malik Ghabat Leyte, literally the King of Leyte's Jungle, is our gift to the community. This is a truly exemplary work of art, and a unique opportunity to add one of the rarest, most illustrious and iconic regions of oud to your collection, this time in the form of an artisanal oil.

Storing your oud oil correctly is the final step in the journey of an ultra high grade oil.
We make that easy with our selection of laboratory vials from J.G. Finneran and DWK Wheaton (Next Gen V-Vials), manufactured in the USA and perfect for long term storage and aging.
Alternatively, for the daily users preferring the traditional quarter tola bottles, our glass bottles use glass dipsticks, making application easy and keeping your oil safe from any plastic contamination.
