COLABA OUD
Understanding Oud Formats: Wood, Oil, and Perfume
Learn the critical differences between raw agarwood chips, concentrated Dehn Al Oud oil, and formulated spray perfumes to choose the right format.
Raw Agarwood Chips (Khashab Al Oud)
Raw agarwood chips are dense, resin-infused pieces of Aquilaria wood. They are heated gently over coals or on electric incense burners to release rich aromatic smoke (bakhoor) for scenting clothing, Majlis rooms, and ceremonial spaces.
Pure Oud Oil (Dehn Al Oud)
Dehn Al Oud is 100% pure distilled essential oil extracted through copper-still hydro-distillation. Applied neat to pulse points using a glass wand, a single drop evolves across 12 to 24 hours directly on warm skin.
Formulated Oud Perfumes (Eau de Parfum)
Spray perfumes blend oud concentrates with organic perfumer's alcohol and complementary notes like Bulgarian rose, saffron, and amber. They offer greater sillage and immediate projection for daily wear.
