Oudh al Camboodi (Cambodian Oudh) is often called the “velvet” of the agarwood world. While other Ouds can be sharp or animalic, Cambodian Oudh is celebrated for its unique, honeyed fruitiness and smooth, balsamic sweetness. This rare, alcohol free perfume oil is a golden masterpiece that captures the essence of sun-drenched tropical forests and ancient resins.

Top Notes: Dried plums, wild berries, and a hint of cinnamon. Heart Notes: Sweet tobacco, honeyed wood, and warm hay. Base Notes: Rich Cambodian agarwood, earthy patchouli, and golden amber. The fragrance begins with an irresistible "jammy" sweetness, reminiscent of sun-dried fruits. As it evolves, the heart reveals a sophisticated, leathery woodiness, finally settling into a deep, creamy, and long lasting base that radiates a warm, resinous glow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical longevity and projection of Oudh al Camboodi?
When you buy attar online, you expect a performance that justifies the investment. Oudh al Camboodi is a powerhouse of endurance. Because it is a dense, resinous long lasting attar, it typically remains on the skin for twelve to eighteen hours. Its projection is "warm and inviting"—it doesn't have the aggressive "bite" of some Indian Ouds, but it creates a persistent, sweet, woody trail that is easily noticed and highly complimented.
Is this Cambodian Oudh a 100% alcohol free perfume oil?
Yes, this is a 100% alcohol free perfume oil. The Cambodian distillation process focuses on preserving the natural esters that give the wood its fruity character. By avoiding alcohol, we ensure that the "honeyed" notes are not lost to evaporation. The oil delivery system allows the fragrance to macerate on your skin, becoming richer and more complex as your body temperature fluctuates throughout the day.
Is Oudh al Camboodi safe for sensitive skin?
Our Oudh al Camboodi is a natural attar, which is generally much safer for the skin than synthetic sprays filled with chemical denaturants. However, pure agarwood is a highly concentrated botanical. We always recommend a small patch test on the inner elbow. If you have extremely sensitive skin, you can apply a drop to your pulse points over a layer of unscented moisturizer to create a protective barrier while still enjoying the full aroma.
How should I apply this attar to capture its fruity complexity?
To experience the full "fruit-to-wood" transition, apply a drop to your pulse points: wrists, neck, and behind the ears. A seasoned tip: avoid rubbing the oil into the skin. Rubbing generates heat that can "burn off" the delicate berry and plum top notes prematurely. Simply dab the oil and let it settle. The slower the oil absorbs, the more nuanced the scent evolution will be.
What makes Cambodian Oud different from Indian (Assamese) Oud?
This is the most common question for Oud lovers. While Indian Oud is famous for its "animalic," "barnyard," and "smoky" intensity, Cambodian Oudh is much sweeter and "cleaner." It is characterized by notes of dried fruits, tobacco, and honey. If Indian Oud is a dark, mysterious jungle, Cambodian Oud is a warm, golden forest at sunset. It is generally considered more "approachable" for Western palates.
What are the best storage instructions to preserve its sweetness?
To maintain the "jammy" fruit notes of your Oudh al Camboodi, store the bottle in a cool, dark place. Direct sunlight is the enemy of natural resins, as UV rays can break down the complex molecules that give the Oud its sweetness. If kept in its original box in a stable environment, the oil will not only stay fresh but will actually become thicker and more "velvety" over the years.
Is Oudh al Camboodi considered a unisex fragrance?
Yes, Oudh al Camboodi is a quintessential unisex scent. Its natural sweetness and lack of "harsh" edges make it incredibly popular among women who want a deep, woody profile without it being overly "macho." Simultaneously, its leathery and tobacco-like heart notes provide the strength and grounding that men look for in a prestige fragrance. It is a scent of universal elegance.
Will the oil stain my clothes?
Oudh al Camboodi is a rich, amber-colored oil. Because of its natural pigments, it can leave a mark on white or very light-colored delicate fabrics like silk or fine linen. We recommend applying the oil directly to the skin and waiting 2–3 minutes for it to absorb before getting dressed. On dark suits, woolens, or leathers, the oil typically leaves no visible trace once it has settled.
What is the shelf life of this alcohol free perfume oil?
Like all high-quality Ouds, Oudh al Camboodi has an indefinite shelf life. It is one of the few luxury goods that actually increases in value and quality as it ages. The "fruity" top notes may mellow over five years, but the woody heart and amber base will become deeper and more resonant. It is a liquid investment that can be enjoyed for a decade or more.
How does Kashmirica ensure the authenticity of its Cambodian Oudh?
Authenticity is our core promise. The "Cambodian" profile is often faked using synthetic berry scents and cheap wood oils. At Kashmirica, we source our oil from traditional Cambodian distillers who use sustainable agarwood heartwood. You can tell the difference in the "clean" dry-down; a synthetic version will turn metallic or "plastic" after a few hours, while our natural attar will remain warm, woody, and sweet until it finally fades.
