AQUILARIA BECCARIANA Year of Distillation: 2024 Appearance This is a relatively light honey color. Gunung Datuk Agarwood Nestled within the ancient forests of Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia, Gunung Datuk produces a rare and revered type of agarwood — deeply aromatic, earthy, and spiritually rich. The trees growing on this rugged, storied mountain absorb the mineral wealth of the land, resulting in agarwood with a remarkably complex character. Aroma Profile: Opening: A sharp, slightly green and spicy burst, evoking fresh mountain air after rain. Heart: Quickly evolving into a warm, resinous heart with strong leathery nuances. There’s a faint smokiness, not harsh but velvety, like a distant campfire on a misty hill. Base: Settles into a deep, meditative base of earthy sweetness, subtle peppered wood, and a ghostly trace of wild florals hidden in the background. There’s an unmistakable natural oud musk that lingers — clean, primal, and slightly creamy. Personality: Gunung Datuk agarwood is powerful yet introspective — it’s less about barnyard funk and more about a dignified, almost ancient woodiness. It’s the kind of oud that speaks of forgotten temples, jungle paths, and timeless rituals. It’s ideal for oud lovers who seek a profile that’s both rugged and refined, earthy but not overly animalic. 1. **Sweet and Woody**: A smooth, sweet woodiness is at the core, offering a delicate, calming presence. 2. **Floral and Fruity**: Light floral notes, often reminiscent of jasmine or rose, and hints of ripe fruits like figs or dates can be present, providing freshness. 3. **Soft Smokiness**: A subtle smoky nuance, less intense than other agarwoods, adds depth without overpowering the other notes. 4. **Green and Herbal**: A fresh, slightly green undertone can emerge, evoking the scent of damp earth or forest after rain. 5. **Balsamic and Resinous**: The finish has a gentle resinous quality with hints of spice or balsam, creating a soft, lingering warmth.
