Greetings everyone, hope all is well minus the cold weather , lol , I have been waiting for this day , RBO 1st wild Vetiver from my motherland Bangladesh. When I stumbled over this bush by accident in my grandmother's village and I thought I was dreaming, everywhere I looked I saw Vetiver , and I was constantly smiling, my family members thought I was going crazy in a good way. When I brought up my project with my cousin he was definitely all In plus he had distilled Vetiver before in smaller quantities. The scent profile is Vetiver on steroids, deep rich balsamic notes with a oudy kick to it , middle note has markers of incense and earthy nuances with base and dry down the show stopper, woody rich incense notes with deep rich Vetiver on the dry down. Without further adieu , Wild Vetiver from my motherland Bangladesh

Just ordered a bottle (you will see an order shipping to Oregon). This sounds excellent - a wild vetiver from somewhere other than India! I did not realize there was a discount code. Oh well - I will use it next time.

what was you distillation setup? Hydrodistillation in copper degs? Steam in steel?

Wild vetiver from Bangladesh is already making me smile and I haven’t even got my hands on it. Seriously - that is a really interesting project.

Got a sample of this in an order late last year. Dynamite stuff. Goes toe to toe with the RBO Indonesian vetiver, which is also awesome but in a different way. The Indonesian is almost more like a rainy day vetiver, where the Bangladeshi is a little sunnier. Need to grab a full bottle of the Bangladeshi to be sure. Lovely stuff regardless.

His patchouli is amazing too - not sure if he has any left, but what I received a few years ago was superb.

I'd give the oil itself a 3 out of 5 because soil note is a bit too dominant to my nose.
But @Royalbengalouds made the whole experience epic with his stupendous amount of free samples.
He is one of the most generous vendors and I don't think he is even thinking about making money out of this business.
He is a great person to work with but I still need to sniff his samples before making the next purchasing decision.

Here's the list of what he sent me for free. (all are about 0.15ml)
and a few oud, sandalwood chips, and frankincense resins. pew- what a list! :eek:
most of the oud oils from him is quite pungent and barnyard-y that I'm not ready to embrace. I need more time to appreciate them.

Well, I'll briefly describe it because I haven't properly worn it.
I just dapped a little dot on my wrist right now. it opens up with a fermented note and camphor-ish freshness. very, very woody. a bit earthy...? not sure it's the right word.
totally different than I expected. no sweetness, no fruitiness. very interesting for a Vietnamese profile. maybe in the dry down? I'll wait for it.

Edit
Drydown - green. fermented smells are gone. still no sign of sweetness, honey. still woody, oudy. not much change happened. not impressed... I'd say.

I received my parcel from Ish this morning. In particular I was looking forward to the bottle of Vetiver,as until this forum..never really heard of it. I have swiped some on my beard and mustache early this morning. This is very very scented. It is so fresh and open. I have gained a new scent molecule with this. Grass, summer mornings early getting up from a camp with dew still on the ground. I am at ten hours later and still it drifts by as a reminder. This is one I shall be buying more of I sense.

Do you sell this product also in any physical store in any country? I was trying to order one from ETSY now, but it turns out delivery cost is more than product cost itself!
