Description and usage notes:
An excellent and tenacious oud recreation by Firmenich that has been widely used in fine fragrances.
From Firmenich: “Odor: Woody, Balsamic Use: A reconstitution of agarwood oil. Intensely woody, reminiscent of vetyver, with sweet balsamic undertones.”
As supplied by Firmenich this is a thick sticky liquid that only pours at warmer temperatures which is why we offer it at 10% in TEC, however if you prefer a higher concentration we also offer 50% in IPM or if you want it undiluted that is available via this product.

Step 1 – make some mix of vetiver, lavender, poplar, ashwagandha and myrrh. Step 2 – add some bezoin. Still uninteresting. Step 3 – add a few drops of OS and it will kill you. Beautiful. Vetivery, salty, unexpected.
