Hello, from NorCal! I thought it was time I joined yet another forum for yet another one of my "addictions," er, creative outlets and passions. I am a longtime fraghead. I've been a collector of niche, bespoke, botanical, and indie perfume for 15 years. I have amassed a nice collection over the years. I also started studying botanical perfumery 3.5 years ago and even did an experiential component for an independent undergrad study on aromachology and its affect on the psyche and human experience. Needless to say, I am obsessed with scent and perfumes, especially botanical, raw and natural aromatics. I work with some amazing materials on a daily basis. It really is a special vocation. I took interest in artisanal oud when I set out to create an oud tincture for a perfume blend and happened upon Ensar's oud resin that I am happily tincturing away at the moment. I have spent a pretty penny on some truly great treasures. Magical they are. I am expecting a few orders from EO and AA in the coming days. I am like a kid on holiday every time I receive my gorgeous oud oils.

View attachment 4893 View attachment 4894 View attachment 4895 View attachment 4896 View attachment 4897 Hello, I am Abd Al Kabeer from Karnataka, India. The land of Tipu Sultan and of course the legendary Mysore Sandalwood.
I am a 22 year old Law student whom Allah introduced to Oud some two years ago.
I am deeply interested in Spirituality and the ethereal.
Honestly, I've known Oud from a long time as I would usually brush aside someone with a Oud attar on them in the Mosques or in the shrines of the Awliya or Walis where they burn oud in the form of incense sticks -- although nothing but concoctions.

However, my first sacred experience came some two years ago where I inhaled a most probably Oud Mukhallat in a local attar shop which revealed to me the depth in the scent of this substance. Since then I've swiftly progressed to the purer experience of unadulterated oud oils --Yes that's what Oud Mukhallats are, adulteration.

And so here I am.

Tracing my origins from Karnataka and also being the grandson of an RFO (Range Forest Officer) who was charged with the duty of protecting and safeguarding Mysore Sandal trees in Karnataka (then Mysore) among other things. I have had the good opportunity of smelling some brilliant sandal wood which I found in the belongings left behind by my Grand father.

I also have some Beautifully hand chiseled Mysore sandalwood artifacts which I have de facto inherited from my grandfather. I am willing to trade them and I couldn't find a section where Sandal wood related products could be sold. So hope it doesn't offend any forum rules if I post some pictures here.
Beautiful staff brother ,, really happy to know you are from the place of Mysore ,the land of tipu sultan.. one of my childhood hero ,till now I am fascinated about his story ..

Your browser has been analysing your typing and has ran it through a personality tester...
:Roflmao::Roflmao::Roflmao:

nah, some links don't send to the HTTPS version (i.e. secure, protected via an SSL certificate)
change the http://www.oudict.com to https://www.oudict and you're good to go :)

It's annoying for me because I'm only logged into the https version and when I visit the HTTP one I am not logged in (i.e. clicking from Google)

I have mentioned this to ouddict and to enforce HTTPS across all but he is a busy man :)

Yes so sorry... I’m one guy running the platform and many other things to do. I’m leaving the admin side of things to others soon, so will focus on correcting these issues. Thanks for the feedback.

not you being enforced, but the communication protocol that your browser talks to the site with. It's a good thing - HTTPS means the web page and anything you "post" to it (i.e. a username/password) is encrypted

I can't find the https version of the site :confused: I thought that ouddict would have to change the whole site over to https from http and not have two different versions??
