Oud Al-Nafahat

Oud Al-Nafahat 2021

Aquilaria crassna Thai Oil

Scent Profile: Cooling Camphor · Mint · Nectarine · Pomelo · Green Florals · Green Tea · Raw Wood

Oud Al-Nafahat is a bright, cooling and remarkably joyful Thai oud from Koh Chang Island.

It opens with a brisk wave of camphor and a brief kerosene-like sharpness. This initial intensity quickly begins to transform, revealing a fresh, breezy mintiness that gives the fragrance an almost crystalline sense of clarity.

As the opening softens, juicy nectarine and ripe pomelo emerge. The fruitiness is fresh and lightly tart rather than syrupy, combining citrus brightness with a gentle natural sweetness.

Green floral tones rise alongside the fruit, creating the impression of blossoms and citrus trees moving in cool island air. Beneath them, mentholic green nuances maintain the fragrance’s clean and refreshing character.

As it develops, Oud Al-Nafahat becomes rounder, sweeter and more lush. Hints of green tea leaves appear through the heart before resting upon a clean spectrum of raw wood in the drydown.

The result is lively, approachable and beautifully balanced: fresh without smelling synthetic, fruity without becoming childish and woody without becoming heavy. It is a 2021 plantation oud from Koh Chang, soaked for 48 hours and distilled in a steel pot, with camphorous, minty, nectarine, pomelo, green-floral, green-tea and raw-wood facets. It is free of barnyard and animalic qualities.
