Lucky Oud

Distilled & composed in Bangalore

Oud, made
by one
pair of hands.

Rafi Ahmed Baig

I distil agarwood myself and compose in batches of twenty to sixty. Every bottle carries the date it was distilled and the handwriting of the person who made it.

Still deciding

You cannot smell a
website. So don't.

Seven half-millilitre vials, a blotter for each, and a week to make up your mind. If you then buy a bottle, the set was free.
