Oud & incense, : M7, 2002
Choose Oud & incense by the note, not by the bottle photo. “M7, 2002” in titles that note, and 7 is strength or time. Shop lighting is not lasting power. Oud sweats; oils still used in the Gulf.
Cool nights, evening ritual. Heat can turn smoke into tar. Yes. Warm, moist skin amplifies sweet and spice; dry or cool skin can turn the same juice woody, soapy or short.

This is not a licence to buy untraced wood.
Any ethics or materials I should know? Ask where the wood came from. Wild Aquilaria is a conservation problem; farmed chips, CO2 extracts and reconstructions are the ethical default. Bakhoor smoke is a ritual, not a medical treatment. No. This atlas is cultural and editorial. Fragrance can irritate; oakmoss, eugenol, citrus oils and musks are common triggers. See a clinician for reactions. Nothing here is a diagnosis, treatment or safety sheet.
Oud & incense did not arrive as one bottle. The timeline below keeps Grasse, Guerlain, Chanel, Nahéma and IFRA as proper names, not metaphors. Read the years as a map of trade and reformulation, not as a ranking of beauty. Sanskrit aguru, Chinese chenxiang, Japanese jinkō — incense before extrait.
On the blotter, keep , “M7, 2002,” and 7. Without them Oud & incense blurs.7
