New Bakhoor


Bakhoor Oman


Bakhoor Oman
Inspired by a bakhoor I received from a friend via Oman, my version was quiet well done if I may say!
I took Green Frankincense Fasoos, Hoojary Fasoos, Brown Fasoos and steeped it in sandalwood oil.  I added Bulgarian rose, vanillan bean, sinking agarwood and a couple of spices.  The evolving nature of Bakhoor Oman is second to none.  With a beginning note of vanilla, spices and rose, next comes the oud wood ( only used a little) and last but not least the frank shows its true colors.  It is ment to be burned on low heat so watch your temps.

120 grams $60

New oils!



Finally got my ambergris and musk macerations ready, and am sooo  excited, so here we go.
1. True Ambergris:  this is a maceration of an absolute ton of ambergris in sandalwood oil.  I weighed the ambergris around 30% which gave it more ambergris than I ever done.  I used a gray,white marine type gris to really get that scent going and yes I achieved it!  No off notes at all and an almost slight camphor note.  This can be used by itself or in a blend.  Very long lasting!
3 ml $120      1 ml $50
2.  True Musk:
The same thing was done with True Musk. 
I added way way much musk into sandalwood oil and , wala, it really took on the musk note very well and strong.  This is real Musk!
3 ml $120
3.  True Amber slightly topped with a small amount of Turkish rose Otto, nice blend with just that touch of lemony rose works very well.
3 ml. $120
4.  Bulgarian rose Otto mixed with some True musk and sandalwood.  A nice robust yet citrucy rose blended with a lighter touch of the True Musk.
3 ml $75
5.  Beard Wax!  I friend gave me some tips on how to a make beard shaping salve.  Scented with Shamama, Oud, labdanum and Sandalwood, the wax is on the waxy side but keeps for slightly stuffing effect.  Only used essential oils, beez wax, and lanolin.
Still in stock:
Ballet:  Turkish rose, labdanum oil, civet and Hindi oud. 3 ml $100
Animal Planet:  Black & Gray gris with deer's musk:  3 ml $150
Black Ambergris:  Pure black ambergris in sandal oil 3 ml $80
Everything listed is all natural!
Thanks, Al-Misky

Saudi choice melting Luban (frankincense), 2 new natural oils: Max a Million & Mix a Million, and my prized possession I told myself ide  never sell.


The Luban is ordinaly grown in Yemen and only choice selected is exported to Saudi Arabia.  The Luban can be chewed like a gum (takes some work) or burned and once its hot it melts to a liquid. Very unique and a must have for frank lovers.  Price $7 an ounce.
Next are my two new oils, all natural.  Based in a slight mix of fractionated coconut oil.  Max a Million is very very heavy in dear musk and Spanish saffron that's been macerated for approx 4-5 years in Mysore sandalwood, added is extra Mysore sandal and Darbor sandal, added with ingredients like 8 year aged Patchouli, Shamama, oregano, Oman frank, lemon, Jasmine grandi, petigrain, litte rose and others I can't recall.  The scent dances from one ingredient to another.  Shamama to citrus to herbs to jasmine and little rose and ends with musk, saffron, sandal frank notes. That's why its Max and why its million.
Next is Mix a Million (gold cap) which contains half of the Max and filled up with Darbur sandal, jasmine grandi and the aged patchouli.  Still a million with heavier tones.
Max is $80 Mix is $60
Finally that white little bottle only holds tiny amounts of dust, authentic deer musk which will retain its oder for I don't know how long but maybe a life time.  This jar I have used for all of my musk creations., from oils to bakhoors.  It has two top caps to it and all is needed is to remove one cap and take a whiff.  Pure and unadulterated deer's musk.  Most people have not or will never smell this scent and this is why it is so hard for me emotionally to sell.  There is no set price.  When I get a suitable amount of requests the highest bidder wins.  Remember it is not just a jar but a collectors item.
Thanks to all.

New cracked earth going fast!

                      
                     

      Just an update:  The new cracked earth #3 has only 60 grams left so if your interested get it before its gone.  Sure to be a classic from my offerings.  

Next offering will be an all natural home made unsii.  unsii is a Somalian incense I was lucky enough to be taught to make due to haveing a Somalian family which Aunti Haali taught me.  Ingrediants include sugar base mixed with rose and orange flower hydro distilations, rose pedals, camphore, silver frankincense, ambergris,  cherry syrup, larger oud chips, onycha, and rose otto.  It will be pink or white which is the most highly regarded unsii in Somalia yet its my version.  If all goes well it will be a treat for the real incense burners.  This is not easy to make as the smallest mistake will ruin everything.  Hard labor is a great product.

Cheers from Aluwwah back to the incense business!
