East truly does meet West in this most famous of all wild harvested oud oils. Oud Assafi is the result of a collaboration of Bangladeshi master distillers Jalali Agarwood and Swiss fragrance giant Firmenich.
Oud Assafi is intensely animalic and woody with a sweet undertone. It is perceptible in traces (which is fortunate given its high price).
For a surprising good (and very cost-effective) extender to this treasured essential oil, blend it with a generous amount of Laine de Mouton absolute. The two are extremely synergistic and the combination allows a perfumer to mimic the effect of an Oud Assafi overdose.
Owing to the intensity of this pure oil and the extremely high price, we are also offering it diluted to 1%, 5% and 10% in natural triethyl citrate, a marvellous odourless diluent produced from citrus.
If you are purchasing for trade you may need a CITES export certificate (check your nation's regulations). We can assist you with that process which is relatively easy. Contact us for more details and costings.
Also, for those who wish to wear this oud directly as a finished product, we are offering 1/4 Tola, 1/2 Tola and 1 Tola options. The tola options ship in luxury heavy weight crystal attar bottles in velvet bags, perfect for gifts.
Fraterworks® is strictly a reseller of this product and is neither an agent nor official distributor for Firmenich.

General Information
General Information
Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.
All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.
