Chinese Exclusive

An Oriscent perfume. The most precious olfactory aesthetic on the planet rendered into spray format – wouldn’t that be something?

Yunnan Kinam… is actually in this perfume. So is Hainan Kinam. The same kyara skins that went into distilling Kyara LTD… watch ’em float inside your bottle. Even more Chinese Oud? Yes Ma’am.

Those ouds alone would have been enough for a spritz of kinamic bliss. But a bottle would run you into five digits and you wouldn’t really be able to call it a ‘perfume.’ Rather, it’d be five bottles worth of top-notch Chinese ouds diluted in ethanol… Awesome – but some would still prefer the oud neat.

So, what if you could bottle that kinamic tone and add the lift and sillage and projection with edgy top notes and a voluptuous white-petalled narcotic floral heart that weaves itself into the resinous orange peel profile of antique Chinese oud? A spritz that’s all zest bolstered by the thick pollen sweetness of sinensis?

At $2,500 – $5,000+ per bottle, using Oriscent ouds even in tiny test iterations can get costly very quickly. The last bottle of Chinese Exclusive (one of the oud world’s most coveted heirlooms) sold for $3,000. Making even a small batch could clean out an entire distillation.

But it’s the oud that gives you the Oriscent aesthetic. And it’s the bitter medicinal kinamic tone that grants Oriscent ouds their cult status amongst connoisseurs. When it comes to crafting a perfume around that aesthetic, though – you must drown your brew in oooud in amounts approaching the obscene.

That’s why this composition is 50% oud concentration, embellished with a choice selection of olfactory fineries only the elite have had access to heretofore.

Oud is a base note. By definition, it doesn’t have monster projection. So, if almost half of the compound is oud, you’d be right not to expect heavy lift or diffusive oomph…

You’d be right – IF the entire carrier wasn’t Musk SQ and the world’s most precious ambergris. If the oud wasn’t structured around chords that coax out its soul like an out-of-body experience, entangle it in bergamot and orange blossom, peach and Santal Royale’s balmy embrace so that by the time it goes back into its body you’ve got a spritz that’s mic loud and drenched in sinensis oud, all the notes molten then fused into this fragrance: Chinese Exclusive.

Fresh cracked mandarin peel sprayed into a haze of wild Hainanese aloes, that zesty tango dripping sweet drops of tuberose, rose, and mimosa petals onto a dance floor tiled with vanilla, oud, oud, and OUD and veneered with the citrus-savory sweetness of beeswax seduced by saffron’s classy glaze.

…that glaze infused with Japanese hinoki for a touch of semi-dry sweetness. The fusion’s velvety debonair, its creamy tenor thickening the sweet Chinese oud, sweetened in turn, not by strawberry or cotton candy synths but by the Cederberg Hyrax’s black paste perfumers find irresistible – not just because it’s a natural fixative but because of how it morphs any aromatic it touches; transmutes its innate sweetness into the orange flower and red mandarin, and sticks to the Chinese oud stuck to the Tibetan musk drowning in ambergris.

This is my first Oriscent perfume. An Oriscent ghalia structured around the old Hainan Attar:

I have to leave you a message here about Hainan Attar. I am in love with it. I cannot describe how much I love it. It’s a reminder of my childhood, where I would play outside my dad’s prayer room where he burnt agarwood shavings. The touch of sweet mandarin really does smell like Chinese New Year! I used to live in Hainan by the way. I really don’t know how you managed to mix this attar so beautifully. I took a swipe this morning and it’s almost 5pm and I am still smelling it on my wrist. It’s so sweet, so creamy, so dreamy and addictive. I am now in my late 30s and I can’t thank you enough for giving me a piece of my childhood back. – Laura, Hong Kong

Featured Testimonials…

Chinese exclusive on its own is unparalleled in my opinion. But I find my bottle too strong and getting stronger with age so I often layer it with Cambodi cologne, Jamaican ambergris or straight Mysore sandalwood oil to take the edge off and I find this works perfectly to settle it and really uplift it.

One spray of Chinese exclusive is almost too much for me and lasts on clothes or skin for upwards of 36 hours easily, even 72 hours sometimes. I usually only wear this to meditations, prayer, ceremony and temples so it is something I hold in reverence.

If I had known now of its quality I would have probably bought 3 at the Sale price because it is possibly in the top 3 perfume compositions ever made of the history of this planet. I say this because to date there isn’t much I’ve experienced that comes close in terms of quality or composition. In all honesty it has ruined many other “perfumes” for me and elevated what I consider to be “quality”.

I am hoping in the near future there will be more releases of this style and caliber of perfume.

The dry down of the oud in it after 12hrs+ in is like a fresh swipe of Oriscent grade oud which lingers persistently.

This and the fact it continuously evolves throughout the wear makes it a true master piece. Every wear of it I become aware of more notes and interactions between the notes. It is the “creation of adam” of perfumes, a Michael Angelo esque composition.
