Woody

Laotian oud smells like the heart of an ancient forest after rain—deeply resinous and woody, with an animalic warmth that's almost leathery. Imagine dark, aged wood infused with medicinal earth and a subtle sweetness reminiscent of honey or tobacco. It's woody, yes, but with a creamy, almost unctuous quality that clings to your skin. There's a faint funkiness too—organic and earthy—like opening a drawer of aged cedarwood that's been storing precious textiles for decades. Not floral or fresh; this is raw, mature, and profoundly grounding.

Musk is the scent of warmth itself—imagine the gentle heat radiating from skin after exercise, mingled with soft suede and a whisper of vanilla. It's deeply intimate rather than floral or sharp; think of wrapping yourself in a cashmere blanket warmed by the sun, with a faint animalic undertone that's almost imperceptible. Pure musk has a powdery, almost imperceptible sweetness, like the inside of a lover's wrist or the comfort of well-loved fabric. It doesn't announce itself boldly; instead, it envelops and lingers on your skin like a second layer.
