Bhutan, Sarpang 2018
Top Notes: Smooth barnyard, raw nuttiness, dry spice
Middle Notes: Soft leather, forest earth, powdery woods
Base Notes: Warm resin, aged agarwood, restrained sweetness
Sourced from the subtropical Himalayan foothills of Sarpang, this wild Bhutanese oud carries a rare balance of depth, smoothness, and quiet character.
The opening reveals a dark barnyard richness, though unlike the harsh or overpowering animalic styles often associated with traditional Hindi profiles. Instead, it feels rounded, refined, and exceptionally smooth, offering warmth and texture without becoming abrasive.
As the oil settles onto the skin, a dry powdery sweetness begins to emerge alongside a raw nutty character that gives the scent a deeply natural feel. Gentle leather nuances, aged woods, and soft forest earth sit beneath the surface, adding depth while maintaining clarity and elegance.
There is a calm and grounded quality to this oil that feels distinctly Himalayan. Resinous, contemplative, and immersive, it slowly develops into a smooth woody finish with restrained sweetness and remarkable longevity.
A beautifully composed wild Bhutanese oud that expresses animalic depth through refinement and balance.
