Khashab
in
Arabic literally means wood. But in the realm of scents it generally
refers to Frankincense, and occasionally Oud. This blend incorporates
both of these ingredients,
and also includes essential oils extracted from other woods.
I had been toying with the idea of creating an all-wood blend for a while, and it finally bore fruition in the form of our mukhallat Khashab.
'Woody' is, naturally, the best way to describe this oil. All the ingredients in this blend came from trees. No florals or any other essential oils, and of course, no synthetics.
The scent of this oil is very dynamic. Not only is it very complex and deep due to the very nature of wood extracts, but it actually smells different in alternate settings. So you might find it sweeter indoors and crisper outdoors, more creamy-woody when its warm and more incensey when its cold. Khashab contains actual liquified resins aside from essential oils, and therefore changes in temperature is one of the easiest (and fun!) ways to enjoy different facets of this oil.
Rugged, dry and woody - be sure to always keep your bottle close at hand to satisfy your wood crave.
