Tupelo honey-laced strawberry jam, and purple bubble gum. Figs, plums and nectarines. Ensar recently launched his most fruitilicious Cambodi to date: Oud Yusha. Oud Yusha is definitive proof that organically cultivated agarwood can yield amazing quality Oud oil. When produced artisanally, that is. Anyone can order Oud directly from a distiller. Just like anyone can order a Monet […]
‘I’m a struggling college student and my only pleasure in life are your wonderful oud oils. The only thing I spend money on is the bare essentials, to eat and buy oud. If I spend what you’re asking for the Mostafa I won’t have enough money to feed myself for the rest of the month […]
Thick spread of fig jam, plums and nectarines. And raw tupelo honey. A resinous amber undercurrent. The precious woods dry down makes you tingle. Copper distilled, almost two years ago.

This time, we didn’t set out on our journey to the Far East to find wild agarwood. We came here to confirm reports that wild agarwood is on the brink of extinction, and from what we’ve seen we can no longer in good conscience get involved with extracting Oud oil from wild harvested agarwood trees. […]
We’re astonished at how much support we’ve received from our customers since our last email announcing Ensar’s going organic! We’ve arrived at our first stop, Cambodia, and will be visiting plantations across the countryside over the next few weeks, before heading out to meet with farmers and distillers throughout the Far East, from Laos to Thailand, […]
We’ve tried to report something of the drama that is unfolding in the Oud world as we speak. The Chinese wood-carving market is laying claim to all wild agarwood trees that remain standing in the jungles of the Far East. We can join them in the scramble for what remains, but what we’re seeing out […]
