Agarwood is one of the world’s most treasured aromatic materials. It is valued for its deep, smoky, sweet fragrance, but no two pieces are alike. Resin content, aroma and appearance vary widely, which is why grading matters. This guide explains how grades differ so you can choose with confidence from our range of agarwood products.
What Decides The Grade Of Agarwood?
Graders look at a few key qualities:
-
Resin concentration: darker, oil-rich wood is generally more valuable.
-
Aroma depth: richer, longer-lasting scents command higher prices.
-
Wood form: whole pieces, small chips or fine pieces.
-
Purity: natural, unblended wood is preferred.

Agarwood Oil Grades:
Agarwood is also distilled into oil. We offer Agarwood Super Oil (sample from $20)and Agarwood Double Super Oil(sample from $30).
Samples let you experience the aroma before committing to a larger size. Oil is more concentrated than chips, so a tiny amount goes a long way.
How Agarwood Fits Into The Wider World Of Fragrance?
Agarwood is a cornerstone of Eastern perfumery, and it pairs naturally with other traditional materials:
-
Indian attar: traditional Kannauj attars often layer woody notes beneath florals.
-
Arabic attars: deep, resinous, oud-led blends that celebrate agarwood.
-
Sandalwood attar and chandan attar: creamy, soft woods that balance agarwood’s smoky richness.
