Koh Maliki is a Qi Nam-style oil from 2016 with a character that defies simple classification. The opening presents a very light redness laced with the faintest wisps of smoky incense — a warmth that glows rather than smoulders. There is no aggression here, no demand for attention. It establishes presence quietly. Beneath this sits a pronounced tea note, the kind produced by certain Crassna distillation methods, and here it is in abundance. If we were forced to assign a colour to the heart of this oil, it would be yellow — a luminous amber-incense character framed by the interplay of red warmth at the top and golden brightness at the centre. The overall impression is of a dark amber incense radiating from within, poised between sweetness and smoke. It is the kind of oil that rewards patient attention — the more you sit with it, the more the layers separate and recombine. We have priced it as a connoisseur's piece because that is what it is. Not a beginner's introduction, not a daily wearer; a quiet, considered oil for those who already know what they are listening for. Koh Kong, Cambodia. 2016 Available in a 2.5g bottle
