Ood Fragrances
Ood is one of the most expensive perfume ingredients in the world. It is extracted from fungi that grow and thrive in tree resins, usually from Agar, which is abundant deep in the forests of South Asia. Ood is extracted by distilling the wood or melting the resin. The note has many facets. It is both strong and clear, yet also satisfying, expressing warmth with a Meushan scent at times, and even evoking damp woods, like the place Ood originally comes from. Although Ood can also show a delicate side, for example when blended with fruity and floral touches, Musk is always the dominant note, showcasing Ood at its best. The complexity and delicacy of Ood fragrances are highly valued, rare and intriguing, simply because they are a gift from nature. When Ood is blended with different oils, it creates a scent that fills any enclosed space and gives an impression of luxury, comfort and uplift.
