Oud essential oil is extracted from this resin-rich wood, capturing its deep, complex scent. Highly valued for its richness and longevity, it is often used to create grounding and emotionally balancing blends. Its intensity allows it to anchor lighter notes, bringing depth and sophistication to the overall aromatic experience.
