Rose de Malaise (2017, La Maison Khenata): My evening wear. This oil has this bakelite like smell along with crushed rose leaves and stems after rain in cold morning. It then slowly becomes smoky and finally very incensy (like lots of Malaysian oud oil) with a heart of the deer musk grain maceration (on sandalwood). A delight to an incense and multifaceted oud fan like me. There is also hay, dry woods, dry saffron hue and lots of other things that I didn't detect before. So either the oil has developed significantly, olfactive experience (or the lack of recent ones with this oil), or any combination of those factors.
I miss my conversations with Farid. Some of him tips and advices are quite valuable to me. I hope he is safe & well.
