Al Hind II

Al Hind II is the only name we could bestow on an Artisanal Oud that was handcrafted and distilled in a small batch to ensure that only the highest quality incense-grade wild Hindi chips went into the pot. Although it hails from Assam, this luxurious oil is a true representation of the rich cultural heritage of the Gulf, where oud has been used for centuries for its captivating fragrance.

The opening notes of Al Hind are a perfect blend of smooth tobacco and soft barn, that is balanced with a citrus-like tanginess. The over-ripe fermented plum adds a hint of fruitiness, while the fudge brings in a sweet and creamy aroma. This combination of scents creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, ideal for an intimate gathering or a relaxing evening.

As Al Hind evolves, the heart notes become more prominent, revealing a rich and complex aroma. The toffee and fudge scents add a touch of sweetness, while the other notes continue to linger in the background. The transition from the opening to the heart notes is seamless, creating a unique and memorable scent.

After around 30 minutes, the base notes of Al Hind appear, adding depth and complexity to the fragrance. The antique wood notes bring in a woody and earthy scent, while the leather adds a touch of sophistication. These base notes give this Oud a long-lasting and powerful aroma, making it perfect for special occasions or everyday wear.

Al Hind is a true masterpiece that captures the essence of traditional Hindi Oud. Its unique combination of scents, from the opening to the base notes, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere.
