Sultani Oud

A glimpse into the past of agarwood

Gifts from the palace

Gifts from the palace

The pinnacle of agarwood in recent years has no doubt been the treasures uncovered in Oman, with so many original gifts from the palace finally coming to light, courtesy of long time collectors, many of whom had no idea of the value of what they held.

In the last couple of years, as stocks dwindled and prices skyrocketed, most of those holding such gifts have decided to hold on to their precious woods and oils, parting ways only in significant times of need, and that too for market value, several times what they asked in 2020.

The hunt

24/7

The hunt

High grade vintage oud is what we seek 24/7, with constant conversation across the world from the GCC to the Far East, even in areas where one might least expect oud, and at times with HNWI individuals one would never expect to be selling off their oud.

provenance

Shrouded in mystery

As is consistent with vintage batches, the exact origin is often shrouded in mystery. With the HJ and Amouage pieces collectors can contact head offices, yet with agarwood this isn't possible.

It takes experienced noses together to form an opinion on the provenance of each piece. We've determined this batch to be a mix of Hindi, with Burmi, Malaysian and Cambodi pieces in the mix.

Beyond pictures

held in hand

Beyond pictures

Pictures and videos cannot do agarwood justice. Rather it must be held in hand, studied, and carefully scraped and heated to enjoy and revel in its magical aroma.

This very batch offers a unique and rare glimpse, for the daring collectors, into the past of agarwood, at a level entirely unattainable today in such magnificent form.
