How To Use Oud

Are you ready to discover some mind-boggling ways to unleash the full potential of your Oud scent profile? Buckle up because these tips will blow your mind!

If you're looking to extend the life of your Oud essence while amplifying its potency, try dabbing a bit onto your wearable accessories and clothing. But hold your horses, my friend, because this trick comes with a warning: the potent scent can leave stains on your clothing, and the aroma may linger for several days even after washing. Did you know that Oud is absorbed more quickly by the skin than by clothing and accessories, resulting in a complex aroma that's as enduring as the essence itself?

When it comes to burning Oud wood chunks or chips, you'll want to burn them on a tray, similar to the ones used for burning incense. Here's the deal: burning on coal can produce a pungent mix of coal and wood scents. To heat the coal efficiently, try using a cigar lighter, but be extra cautious not to aim for the middle part. Instead, focus on the far sides of the coal, then place your Oud chunks or chips on the middle spot. The head will gradually transition from the sides to the middle of the coal, providing a more captivating and long-lasting aroma.

For an aromatic extravaganza that will take your home to the next level, try running a steam bath with Oud smoking away in the background. The lingering fragrance will fill your home with a scent that lasts and lasts.

When burning Oud wood chunks and chips, use a piece of newspaper to fan the smoke and spread the potent aroma throughout your home. Just remember not to fan directly at the coal or risk removing the coal ashes from the burner.

To achieve the perfect scent without the charcoal smell, try using the coal ashes as a bed for your Oud wood splinters. Trust us, your senses will be grateful!

Ready for the ultimate scent experience? Apply Oud oil by dabbing a drop onto your palm, then rub your hands together before running them over the lower neck and head area, and shoulders.

To burn Oud chunks or chips, start by breaking them into smaller pieces and preparing the coal over a low stove fire, using a thin sheet of aluminum foil to cover the burner. Next, use tongs to place the coal on the burner and your Oud wood on top. Watch in awe as the scented smoke rises, revealing the melting resin of the agarwood - the most precious element of Oud wood. Cup your hands above the burner and let the fragrant smoke fill your home, scenting your clothes and the corners of your house with the intoxicating aroma.
