Oudimentary Oil & spray descriptions
OILS
KSSS Cambodi
After several years of searching, Oudimentary is happy to announce that we have finally found an aloeswood oil to rival our famous CFO Cambodi oil.
If you are familiar with our CFO oil, you will be quite pleased with our presentation of KSSS. Think CFO, only stored and aged for years to make all subtleties stand out more.
With aloeswood oil, ageing is a refining process, and that the longer you let oils hang around without being used, the better they get. They are literally allowed to marinate and steep in itself deepening the scent without you having to do anything except be patient (not always an easy task).
It is not unusual for aloeswood adepts to have several bottles stashed away for years (or decades) at a time, patiently waiting for the alchemical process to turn that simple aloeswood oil into an immutable, inextinguishable, immortal nectar which grants realization of the divine. Being the nice guys that we are at Oudimentary, we took that long step out for you so you can time travel to the straight funk.
KSSS has all the beauty you would expect in classic Cambodi oil, but without any harshness found in less quality oils. Ages very nicely on skin, deepening as the day or night goes on. At the base there are foresty notes, mahogany and dried berry. Top notes indicate apricot, pipe tobacco. It is pure bottled subtlety.

Super Assam
From the North-Easternmost State of The Indian subcontinent comes our Super Assam Oil. Assam borders on Bhutan and Bangladesh, and has long been a famed source of Aloeswood. It comes from one of our suppliers who hails from the region, who not only buys direct from oud processing factories in Assam, but also has for over 30 years sharpened his scent skills as a disciple of the burn.
Our Super Assam oil is the pinnacle of a classic Indian Aloeswood. It’s strength and character speaks for itself. It’s a very “old” smelling oil, with a hardiness that lasts throughout the day after only one application. Our Super Assam offers a heavy body and strong character with undertones of fresh earth and rustic spice. Primal. The original funk.
This Assam comes in two grades, the A grade is heavier with the typical “barnyard” notes common in Assam oils. If you aren’t a fan of this, go with the Grade B, although there is still a bit of lingering zoo funk. If you have no idea what we are talking about, better contact us before you buy any Assam oils.
Step up to be the Aloeswood adept you were meant to be—try our Super Assam Oil today.
Grade A $250, Grade B $200, 1/4 tola

Cambodi Tuk Kmum
Oud Cambodi. Just the name conjures up images of dense jungles, rare woods, and uncharted lands.
From this renowned Oud-producing nation comes our newest addition to the Oudimentary aloeswood-oil roster– Cambodi Tuk Kmum.
Tuk Kmum is Khmer language for honey. It actually translates as “Bee-Water” and we thought it is a very fitting title for this stunning oil. With an amazing viscosity, Oudimentary’s Tuk Kmum is by far the thickest, most syrupy oud oils we have available. It is super long lasting, and is sure to impress the most discerning of Oud-enthusiasts.
While it has sweet hints of the same family of notes as our now famed KSSS, Tuk Kmum has interesting top notes of herbs, with hints of sage-flower honey and amber. It has got a molasses-like kick with undertones of dried fruit and pipe tobacco.
Don’t miss out on this exquisite, unique Cambodi Oil.

Isparta Rose Attar
Isparta is a city in western Turkey and the provincial capital of the Isparta Province. The city’s population is 250,000 and elevation from sea level is 1035 m. Another name of the city is “City of Roses”. In old Turkish, names did not start with SP, therefore an “I” is added in front of “Sparta” when pronouncing, and it is now pronounced and written as “Isparta”. It is also where Oudimentary’s Top-grade Rose Attar hails from.
The tireless scent-hunters at Oudimentary are proud to present this fine example of a timeless classic. Long has the rose been a symbol of the mystic path. From it’s long stem with thorns representing the pitfalls of the seeker on his journey, to the perfection of a beautifully formed flower at the end of that stem mirroring the perfection of the universe, the rose has been the topic of centuries of admiration and praise. It’s scent embodies these aspects for daily use.
Roses also play a psychological role; it has a calming effect for grief, resentment, anger and depression. Rose attar has a sedative effect, which can be used to ease nervous tension and stress.
The learned teacher and Sufi master Shaykh Hakim Chishti says, “Rose is the most superior of all scents in the floral realm. Rose works simultaneously on the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies, purifying and uplifting all three.”
Oudimentary backs this claim.
Oudimentary’s Isparta Rose Attar was uncovered by our worldwide network of zealous comrades, some of which currently reside in Istanbul, Turkey. It’s scent is a timeless classsic.
This latest batch has strong hints of apple and lemon on top, with a lingering, classic rose sweetness that mellows very nicely. It’s a heady scent that pairs well with our recent Burmese aloeswood. Quite addictive.
