Absolutely love this Malaysian oud! The Wild Aged 18+ Years West Malaysian Senja has a beautifully deep, rich and earthy aroma, with a strong woody character and a slightly smoky, resinous undertone. It has that distinctive natural oud intensity, but as it settles, you begin to appreciate its warmth and complexity. It’s definitely a bold and powerful oud, especially compared to some of the softer Cambodian ouds we’ve experienced, but that’s exactly what makes it special. We love the authenticity and depth of this oil. You can really appreciate the unique character of Malaysian oud. We’re also excited to experiment with it in our own fragrance creations, particularly our upcoming Malay Oud beard oil. Beautiful quality, and we’re very happy with our purchase. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates genuine, traditional oud!

This is the perfect way to introduce yourself to oud. I have sampled from a few other producers and The Oud Trader is far and away the best quality. The benefits of being located in Singapore and the skill of the craftsmen are apparent.

Oud Discovery Set - (Early-Supporter Price + Free Ouds)
Store owner replied: Thank you so much Jessica for your kind words! We are committed to maintaining high quality and high standards at affordable prices :)
The sample set (10) was delivered to my home in perfect condition. Two bags with 5 bottles each wrapped in bubble wrap ensured that there was no leakage or breakage. I can't wait to try to them!

I received the package quickly and everything was packed very neatly. I really enjoyed having the chance to explore nine different ouds and discover how much they can differ from each other. Each one gave me a different impression, which made comparing them really interesting. The sandalwood was a lovely extra as well. A great little set for anyone who enjoys exploring oud.

I cant possible review all of them so ill review the first one i tried. The Oud Trader - Wild Aged 20+ years Prachinburri - Pa Boran (sample) I just got back from a trip and was opening my sweet packages. Upon opening TOT’s box this one fell out and broke the outer glass but not the v-vial. So I was able to sample it. TOT send the oud in a very crude manner. Small box bursting with bottles in bahamas-style bags trying to breathe through the bubble wrap. It’s a little messy - but as I said, crude. I love it. It has that Prachin watery ozonic coupled with melon 🍈 note along with the scent of aged smoked dates. Absolutely beautiful smell coming off of this oud. It’s different than other prachins in that it’s medium bodied, and a little bit more purple notes comes along with it. It’s a multi-faceted oud which is definitely not linear. It’s slightly medicinal but aged well enough to remain dark and rich. After being without oud for 5 days this certainly made me happy and jubilant.

this one is a really special one. it started as a extra gift in a previews order and it was an immediate blissfulness. I ordered now and definitely intrigued by the other options as well

Wow, what an incredible job you’ve done collecting these oud oils! They all look exceptionally clean, and the way you’ve described each one is absolutely spot on. It’s obvious you’ve put a tremendous amount of knowledge, experience, and passion into this collection. Truly impressive—one of the finest and most thoughtfully presented oud collections I’ve seen.

The packaging and presentation of these ouds were surprisingly good, especially for a discovery set. The ouds themselves were of great qualities. I believe anyone really interested in oud should at least give themselves a chance to experience the quality and A+ olfactive treat.

This Tarakan Oud Oil is amazing!! It's one of the best smelling Ouds I've come across
Demario T. 5/5 Verified
A smooth and dry camphor note I enjoy is present in the opening, followed by powdery, smokey resins. Next there is a pleasant combo of molasses and subtle damp earth, herbs and spices, and dark, sweet but dry, balsamic woodiness. Ibrahim was very helpful and generous with this order, including a good size sample of another oil as well as a nice leather travel pouch.

I first heard of the Oud Trader on Ouddict and just heard good things in the forum, so i decided to order one gram of two of their selections without sample nothing. And yes this was one! A really unique and quite an hypnotic opening and development of this Takaran definitely a profound experience to be thankful for.

As someone who collects natural oud and is always looking for quality oils, I’m selective about where I buy. I recently bought one of The Oud Trader’s sample sets and was genuinely impressed. The quality was outstanding throughout. My favourites were the smooth, resinous West Malaysian and the darker, earthy Merauke—both were so good I ordered 3ml of each. Customer service was excellent, with fast, helpful communication. He also kindly included two Cambodian oud samples and some African sandalwood to try. The sandalwood wasn’t the longest-lasting on my skin, but its beautiful, creamy aroma convinced me to buy some anyway. Everything was well packaged and arrived promptly in the UK. It’s clear he’s passionate about natural oud and genuinely cares about helping customers find oils they’ll enjoy. I’ll definitely be buying from him again.

I recently tried all six oil samples, and I have to say they are amazing! From the very first sniff, it's clear that the quality is exceptional. The rich, authentic oud fragrance truly stands out, and the sandalwood smell is simply amazing. Highly recommend for anyone looking for top-notch oud oils!

My Oud Trader sample set arrived all the way from Singapore and I’m genuinely impressed. What stood out most is that these aren’t the typical barnyard, challenging ouds people often expect. Each one feels refined, wearable and incredibly nuanced, evolving beautifully on the skin throughout the day. The quality is undeniable, a little goes a very long way, and every oil tells a different story. My husband loved them all. If you’ve been curious about real oud but feel intimidated by it, The Oud Trader might just change your perception completely.

Rarely does a cambodi surprise you anymore, so often we see different shades of cambodi but all in all it still comes down to that - a cambodi. This oud from brother Ibrahim went above and beyond what I expected. It has that golden resinous cambodi character, but with a backbone that makes it stand tall. Something slightly primal, not barnyardy or animalic, but something old and almost primordial that holds that sweet golden resin up. Something powerful, something regal. When I smell it in the air it brings a smile to myself, something so calming and almost holy-like, a truly beautiful oud from an outstanding brother. The sillage is beautiful, not overpowering but something that will have you chasing the smell throughout the day, as if it taunts you to follow it along throughout the day. It silently hovers in a room, not overpowering or cloying at all, but regal and self-assured in the most modest of ways. An absolute beauty, I cannot recommend this enough (I especially recommend having someone else wear it around you so you can see how it blooms as a bystander).

I have purchased Koh Kong from other vendors. But this was more cleaner and felt more elegant than others I have used.

the west malaysian, right off the application, it smelled so clean. i guess thats the cool wood scent. 5 mins in, i could smell what the description said as "light floral". this is my fav part, i have a thing for floral scents. much later the smell settles to a smokey, warm amber scent. takaran initial application was similar to but not as sharp as west malaysian. 5mins in, it's a much heavier wood scent, and settles to the similar smokey, warm amber scent. southern thailand was very sharp from the start. which is probably the initial ripe fruit "burst". super strong for me. like cold water in the morning. 5mins in it's a clean floral scent and much later settles to a really nice and light spice lingering scent. 5stars for all 3

Alhamdulillah, I just received the order, the delivery. Mashallah, the Maroke oud really, really smells very, very good. I didn't know this kind of smell existed, you know? Yeah, maybe because, you know, I just ventured into the world of ouds, right? So currently, I rate this as the best oud in my collection right now. And I'm really, really, very happy. Brother, on this Arafah day, at this time, at this hour, I pray that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala bless your family and also your business with lots of barakah and may your business grow, prosper with every barakah with Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala. Amin, amin, Rabbil Alamin.

Just wanted to pray for isyak just now and applied the indonesian tarakan. SubhaAllah! The beauty of the oud. Consistency is super sticky. And so much depth in it. The scent’s sweetness balances so nicely throughout. I was assuming how much more can you get from an Indonesian oud. It should be the same as most. But wow, the harmony from start to finish. First time receiving something so elegant from a dark strong spectrum of oud. Topped the list of samples you gave me. Definitely strong contender to be a staple for me
