Sulawesi oud originates from the island of Sulawesi in central Indonesia, a region known for producing agarwood with a clearer and more lifted scent profile. Compared to the heavier styles of Papua or Borneo, Sulawesi ouds tend to feel lighter and more transparent in character.
The oil opens with a noticeable sharpness that feels bright and fresh rather than harsh, giving it immediate presence without becoming overwhelming. The core of the scent is not especially deep, but it carries a pleasing clarity that aligns well with its light brown colour. As the oil develops, the sharper edge gradually softens and a gentle sweetness begins to emerge.
During the dry-down, the sweetness becomes more pronounced, settling into a soft and pleasant oud note. On unwashed skin, this final phase can last for up to two days, offering reliable and extended longevity. Overall, Sulawesi is an approachable and well-balanced oil with a distinctive evolution and a long-lasting, graceful finish.
