Oudimentary

Will I run out I will buy again great oud oil.

Amber and Oud is hands down my favorite blend from Oudimentary. It has the perfect blend of both, one not over powering the other. Warm amber, a hint of musk, and a pinch of patchouli is exactly what I needed to get grounded for the fall.

Out of my $150 purchase which was discounted by 30% this is the only thing I could honestly say I liked. I had been waiting to try these products for a few years. I absolutely love the smell of Oud. I was excited to finally make the purchase. Unfortunately the quality I would expect for such an expense was missing.

The amber is warm and comforting and the musk is invigorating. This is a classic scent.

The Amber & Oud oil is smoky and sweet. I would say a little on the sweeter side, but after it's been on my skin for a while, it's more smoky, which I like a lot. Great product. I also got the Oud Blend oil and that one is excellent too.

I love this blend. I bought the Wild Rose Blend when it was first released not knowing much about it. I was confident that the blend would not disappoint as I have purchased many items from Oudimentary dating back to 2016. As expected the Wild Rose Blend exceeded my expectations and has been a pleasant addition to our household enjoyed by family and friends. I recommend you try this blend, you will not be disappointed.

Scent is delightful but not worth the extraordinary retail price.

This unique blend is perfect to set the vibe. It slowly sets into the room, changing as the various components burn and develop into a robust concoction that will have you sniffing the air to take in as much as you can. Was skeptical while burning initially but was blown away by the time it set into the room.

my fiance absolutely loves the rose scent! we burn it on my electric heater at 180 to enjoy the rose then crank it to 250 to fully enjoy the woods. would buy it by the barrel if I could.

Was hesitant to order but couldn't resist. Very thankful I did. This stuff is just amazing! A must have if you love rose. Perfectly blended. Powerfully filled up the room and enjoyed the scent for hours. The frankincense contributes the perfect element and the patchouli really brings it all together. Will likely buy a backup

Beautiful smelling has decent amount of resin still in the wood I would buy it again

Disappointed by the quality and how quick it burns off

Excellent Friend

No scent after burning. I am still open to trying some of the other products however

Disappointed as I wasnt aware the Oud was going to be ground so fine. I thought it was going to be Oud pieces.

MashaAllah. Classic Cambodi

I'm a person who loves and have more than twenty years experience using them. This one is one of their best and this is my third time ordering it. It lasts on human skin for twenty four hours and clothing for couple day.

Oudimentary sources quality oud oils, and Select Cambodia is no exception. I just don’t want others to know about it because I need it all for myself.

Subhanallah, reading the reviews makes it seem as though we are all describing different ouds! This Cambodi was different than what I had bought in Malaysia and continue to search for, which was much sweeter and smokier than this. On my skin, this has a very dark, woody smell. I, personally, would not use musk or tobacco in describing its profile, even after it has settled down- perhaps my sniffer is not refined enough... It also did not last as long as most ouds I have used in the past. It doesn't work for me, unfortunately, so I had to return it (and they were gracious enough to accept it)- despite the high cost of doing so. That being said, if you do prefer an antique wood smell, you may really enjoy it.

PS- my skin really changes the scent profile of any perfume I wear, so what I say may not be true for everyone.

This was my first foray into burning raw oud, and I couldn't be more pleased. It's been quite the journey discovering the distinct fragrances of each type of wood included in the sampler. I'll definitely be purchasing more of my favorites (along with some oils) very soon!

I know Oud since childhood through my mother who regularly burn Oud in the living room and kitchen. A friend of my recommended me Oudimentary, and now I’m a fan Al hamdoelilah 🤲

First the picture is deceiving. It would imply there are several pieces per type. Some bags only had one piece. There was no instruction how to use. The bark scent was not pleasant

I've never burned raw oud before so the sampler was absolutely perfect for me. It's been so interesting and unexpected to see the types I liked best. The variety and quality was incredible. So happy with Oudimentary, already placed a second order.

I am amazed at how generous oudimentary is with the samples so many different kinds of oud to try. My home is filled with the scent of oud. I love it!

Perfume Oil Blends Discovery Set

I’m so happy I tried the Perfume Oil Blends Discovery Set! It’s a fun way to test out some really unique, all-natural scents. Amber & Oud quickly became a favorite. I love its smoky vibe, and layering it with a little vanilla just made it even better. Purple Sky was another standout, it’s so different from anything I’ve smelled before, totally one of a kind. Plus, I love that these come in mini sizes so you can really try them out before committing to a full 3ml bottle. If you’re curious about oud or just want some new layering options, this set is definitely worth it!

A wonderdul light Oud blend. Great place for Oud, very very satisfied with their Oud blend. Great for all day every day wear.

- It's... Warm... it's got... Berries... Like a Strawberry Blueberry hybrid, but... not freshly cut ones. It's almost exactly like... A warm "Mixed Berry"Poptart, straight outta the toaster, that you spit open with your hands, and smell the warm strawberry filling.

- Next, there is also something like... Warm Graham Crackers, or Pie Crust. Both, really...

- There is also a distinct hint of... Olives... (Not black though, but the Green or Brown ones, they often have in fancy salad bars, or in jars.) Salty, Pungent.

- I also get a note of... the smell of the "sticky side" of Duct Tape - as odd as that sounds...

- Also, something else, but... it isn't strictly a, "Smell" per se, but, more of a sensation, or a vision that occurs. It's something like... "Effervescence"... like... something foamy or bubbling. Like... the tickling prickling noise, as well as sensation, of millions of tiny bubbles rising up and popping, like sticking your nose down in a wine glass with some fruity bubbly champagne, and it tickles your nose, as well as your brain.

- There's also a thick, sweet, saccharine smell, slightly, "Winey" or "Boozy" that you often get with Benzoin extracts

- Also... Wet grey stone, like a pile of clean gravel, that's been rained on.

- A light, or, "watered down" Patchouli... (But it's very faint, and it seems to only show up during the drydown.)

- The "colors" of the smell, strike me as: Pink, Purple, Brown, and Blue.

- A bit of Chocolate, but... Like the smell of the foil wrapper around chocolate, after it has melted in your pocket, and stuck to it - then it dries out, and you smell the wrapper later. Like that.
This would be excellent in a Gourmand. Definitely like... "The warm smell of pastries, berry pies and olives in the air". Definitely full of good sweet kitchen smells.

- And lastly... as it dries down... Faint hints of... pipe tobacco? and... well...
There's also this other... rather odd component... (to some people anyway)

- Imagine that, AFTER you've brushed your teeth, and have a clean mouth, you licked the back of your arm. Then, several minutes later, after it has dried, you smell it. If your mouth is clean and healthy, I wouldn't say it necessarily smells, "Bad" just very... "Human". A damp sticky breathy quality. And depending on your preferences, some people don't mind that in a fragrance... *shrugs*

Anyway, that's all I have to say about the Fragrance as it stands now, however...

Oud is always incredibly fascinating in perfumery, because... It never quite seems to do exactly what you think it will, or what you expect it to... What I mean is, it can be very, "Chameleon-Like" when added to other oils to create a blend.
For example, if you added Lavender to something, you could safely expect it to make your scent, well, more Lavender-y. But Oud? No. Not so easy to anticipate. It has too much nuance. Too much complexity on it's own to really nail it down completely.
However, this is why Oud is so much fun to own and play around with! And I think if you haven't used it before, that this small vial of Oud Blend would be perfect for some initial experimentation, and at a low cost, so you won't be deterred by a larger price tag!

Try it out! I doubt you'll be disappointed!

Smells nice. Peaceful vibes. Reminiscent of frankincense. I heard Brother Ali talking about it on his podcast

this is the oil that introduced me to and helped me become obsessed with oud oil. for the price you absolutely can't beat it!

The wait was well worth it! This is by far an amazing wood to burn anytime. The subtle sweet and earthy tones really lighten a space and bring joy as well as smoothness to my day when burning.

First Oud burnable and I must say that I choose wisely. The importance of type of charcoal used cannot be understated. Stay away from the common type you may find readily available. I also use a mica plate with great results after a friend's recommendation. Hints of pepper, leather, and tobacco linger well after the burn has completed.
