Hoi An: No doubt, it is a nice oud. Various notes keep emerging every now and then.
Since the day I smelt it, I found it a light version of Qamar by Habz Oud. Qamar was Burmese, I think. But, this, Hoi An, Vietnamese and that Burmese have similar notes, in my opinion. Qamar was rather strong and more incens-y. Well, these particular notes are not of my taste.

Peppery smoke from glowing embers meets resinous wildflower honey, part gently heated part hot bubbling chip.

I intentionally did not swipe this for a while, so I can get another fresh impression.
First swipe, I am again reminded of Agar Aura Au Luong. A crystal lake of tea oud. I call this genre “extreme parameter”. I get a little tangerine, then buttery pollen, a little later....oudiness.
It’s such a shame that overall it is a weak oil with zero longevity. But for those short moments, very interesting.

Fleeting Volatiles meets Resinous Drydown
In the middle...cream, mild spices, and a touch of florals.
Nice longevity!

Actually for the last six months, I have been into the market that is mostly unknown to the forum-based community. Dearest and respected Powdernose introduced 'pure oud' in blind oud test.

The Oud World wouldn’t be complete without the Jungle/Island Ouds. Even though they may be a departure from the mainstrean Hindis and Cambodis, they have nice things to offer.......spice, resin, florals and foliage, sweetness, and a transportive quality.

Oudhasi brings back memories lol, I bought the "Green Gaharu" oil from them in 2010 it was a very fresh green malay/borneo type smell.

I sampled that as well. It was quite tart if I recall. I also got some of their sandal wood logs. They came boxed and wrapped from the Government factory.
