Malaysian Agarwood � The History of Oud

Strings Of Errors01 Aug, 2023Business

Malaysia is currently one of 12 countries in the world that grows and produces natural Agarwood as well as the refined oil produced from the wood, known as Oud. While all types of Oud have a common baseline often described as musky, aromatic, and sweet, Malaysian Oud is particularly smokey. Because of this unique scent profile, it is generally one of the more sought-after varieties of Oud as it has a slightly more dark textured, and masculine touch to it and if we take a look at the history of Agarwood in Malaysia, we can see that this fragrant tree has been a part of the culture for centuries.
