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.

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!
