Hands down, second to none, agarwood
from the Cambodian jungle of Pursat possesses the most
archetypal aroma of Indochinese agarwood. Boasting the most
neutral agarwood flavor and the least amount of secondary
notes that come about due to variations in altitude and soil
composition, Pursat personifies the essential 'marrow' of
Indochinese oud.
Pursat Select was distilled with the sole aim of
preserving that oudy marrow.
It opens with the aroma of liquified agarwood. And that's
what it ends with.
There are literally zero fruity, floral,
animalic, or any other auxiliary notes in this oud. Consider
every single Cambodian, Laotian, and Vietnamese oud oil you
have ever smelled. Strip them of ALL region-specific
accents, as well as the accessory notes introduced by the
hand of man.
You're left with a common core, the oudy marrow.
Now replace all the auxiliary scent notes with dollops of
even more oudiness.
That is the scent of agarwood from Pursat. And that
is the scent of Pursat Select.
No plums or figs. No citrus. No barnyard aromas. No nothing.
Just straight up oudiness. A dignified bitter woody-resinous
aroma, softened with gentle faintly-vanillic edges.
Oud oils from Malaysia and Laos are generally considered the
oudiest, whereas oud oils from Cambodia (and Thailand) are
typically considered the 'prettiest', least serious, and...
the least oudy.
With one swipe, Pursat Select demolishes that notion.

Let me tell you I have never smelled such a presious smell
like this before. I would like to hug you and say
Jazakallahkhair for extracting such a smell olfactory. My
blind purchase and trust paid off. Please let me know if
you distil more quality cambodi oud. You made me your fan.

This to my nose smelt of pure, unadulterated burning wood.
Deep, intense and a bit smokey.

Pursat Select was an fantastic oil. Very soothing . The
longevity of this oil was so good, at least 10 hours on my
skin. I enjoyed much. I will definitely recommend to
others. Thank you for your hard work.

The Pursat select was great. I would be very happy with
that as a daily wear.

Typically, when we smell a Cambodian oil, there is this
one scent in mind where it’s fruity and citrusy. The PS is
absolutely not that and it is straight Oudiness at its
best. The opening notes are straight Oudiness where you
can gauge the agarwood used in this oil.

All I can say is WOWwwwww

Very nice oil, to me it smells more Chinese like than
Cambodian, some bitterness and sunshine with a note
lurking that I cant quite pick, musk maybe or a hint of
vanilla bean. But mostly just essence of oud.

<…> level stuff. It is just WOW!
