Description
Dark Rich Agarwood Essential Oil 2ml
Aquilaria malaccensis
Artisan hydro-distilled 2021
Aquilaria malaccensis from Indonesia known as Agarwood Oud oil is hydro-distilled resin and wood from the Agarwood tree. The oil is harvested and cultivated from 50 year old trees which is sustainably, mindfully, and carefully produced in small batches. This oil is semi viscous and because it comes from trees that are about 50 yrs old and it is dark green amber in color the oudy aroma is simply gorgeous and extremely high quality.
This base note smells like a soft slightly sweet oud without the heavy harsh barnyard notes that comes with a hint of sandalwood backnotes. I love this one blended with Jasmine abs and Etrog Citron with a touch of Neroli in the mix.
The plant Aquilaria malaccensis L. commonly known as agarwood belongs to the Thymelaeaceae family. India, Malaysia, Bhutan, Indonesia, Laos, Singapore, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Thailand and Philippines are all home to this species. A. malaccensis or agallocha and A. crassna are two species of Aquilaria that produce fragrant resin that is used to make agarwood essential oil, also known as gaharu, aloeswood, eagleswood, and oud
Main Contituents are Cubenol (22.26%), agarospirol (14.35%) and aristolene (13.22%) were the major compounds identified. Agarwood essential oil possess strong anti-inflammatory, stablelize high blood sugar levels, anti-urolithic and tyrosinase inhibitory potentials.
There are some texts that say that agarwood was used in the Torah called Aloeswood. A name applied to a variety of trees containing a fragrant, or aromatic, substance used as a perfume in the Biblical period. (Ps 45:8; Pr 7:17; Ca 4:14) Most commentators consider the aloe tree of the Bible to be the true Agarwood maybe the Aquilaria species.
The prophet Balaam’s comparison of the tents of Israel with “aloe plants that G-d’s has planted, like cedars by the waters,” may relate to the spreading shape of these lofty trees, a cluster of aloe trees resembling an encampment of tents.
On the other hand, Balaam’s reference to the trees does not require that they be growing right in the area where he spoke. If the “cedars” mentioned immediately afterward in this text were cedars of Lebanon, then they would be trees growing outside that area, and the same could be true of the aloes.
