ELECTRIC CANDY APPLE 2023 • single tree wild Oud • Pursat, Cambodia
• highlights: Apple and cinnamon, extremely clean, bright, and sweet but still dynamic and full-bodied.
• material: 100% wild Aquilaria crassna, from one single mature wild tree from a high mountain area of Pursat province, Cambodia.
• production: Distilled in November 2023 in copper with a glass collector. Dedicated and verified artisan distiller. Lab-tested for purity and authenticity.
• scent description: a bright, clean, sweet, even sparkling Oud of rare distinction That still manages to be complex, dynamic, full, and tenacious. Apple and cinnamon fireworks herald the glorious opening. Soon every face of the apple will shine here; fresh apple, apple cider, a bright calvados, all frolicking with finest cinnamon and fresh ground gourmet allspice. There is lychee and strawberry here too. There is royal jelly and fresh blond tobacco. Sometimes there is yellow cherry. Deep into the drydown, there are beautiful baked apple delights and an exquisitely stocked humidor finish.
Yes this Oud is “sweet and fruity”, but it is not light or lacking. So many “sweet light fruity” Ouds can quickly leave you feeling empty.
• notes of controversy: zero. sweet and clean.

Additional notes on Oud from Aroma Sublime:
• Absolutely wild. When we say wild, we mean wild! All our “wild” designated agarwood and oil is from genuine 100% naturally occurring wild forest agarwood trees with no human interventions prior to harvest. Occasionally we might offer other options, but they will be clearly indicated as either “cultivated” (farmed) or “semi-wild” (agarwood growth influenced by human intervention in a natural setting). When we say wild, we mean wild!
• One-tree wonders. We strongly prefer single-tree agarwood harvests and single-tree Oud oil distillations. This has both environmental and aesthetic benefits, capturing the unique essence of a single, fully mature, agarwood tree. When this single-tree preference is not possible we strongly favor combining wood from only a few fully mature trees from the same geography, of known provenance, supplied by trusted and experienced harvesters. (the only exception would be in the case of carefully planned blends or co-distillations which we always describe with precision.) More and more you will see us moving toward single-tree productions. It’s part of our commitment to sustainability and our joy in honoring the individual aromatic “soul” of each tree we harvest.
• Beyond Words. We try to describe our Oud oils as accurately as possible using common vocabulary from a Western cultural perspective. There might also be some specialized technical or aromatic nomenclature as we seek also to educate and inform our customers. We hope to strike a balance; offering accessibility and straightforwardness while also providing some technical and specialized vocabulary when we think it is informative or necessary. Our Oud descriptions are subjective and may vary slightly over time due to the effects of aging on Oud's aromatic profile, however, Oud oils will generally only improve with age, and the key features of a particular oil will generally be quite stable over time. We try to repeat the assessment process and update the detailed aromatic description for every Oud oil in our catalog at least once every 12 months. We pride ourselves on detailed accurate descriptions of our Oud oils, and we are happy to receive your constructive feedback on this topic.
