Mystical Lotus: Nha Trang Trio

You likely don’t know this, but we have two batches of Nha Trang oud that are never sold because they were developed in collaboration with traditional TCM doctors to treat an array of conditions. The purity and quality of these oils had to be impeccable not only because that’s what they required to be effective for their purposes, but because their clients ingest the oils.

So, pouring what may be the most expensive oud oils ever distilled into a spray perfume and being spritzed would be the ultimate transgression as far as they are concerned!

But that’s what you have here on full display for their olfactory efficacy – three of my most prized oud: Nha Trang, Nha Trang Sinking, and Nha Trang Privée – in one incredible EO bespoke perfume.

This exclusive edition gives you the same super extravagant Mystical Lotus you read about below, and then adds two grams of Nha Trang Trio to give you a decked-out bottle of pure blue indulgence.

Mystical Lotus isn’t a perfume. It’s not an extrait de… anything. At ~60% concentration, I’m surprised the atomizer can even handle the spray!

Built on top of Blue Kalbar, which was already a luxury perfume – 20+ natural ingredients bolstering the creamy blue lily’s narcotic effect.

And here’s where the funs starts…

Since Blue Kalbar forms the base of Mystical Lotus, you get all the orange blossom, Ambra ’92, civet, and Green Papua that was in the original by default, this bespoke contains additional 6 grams of my signature blue lotus extract. The blue lotus in here alone qualifies as an extrait concentration!

But we’re not even half way…

On top of the hefty dose of blue lotus, your bottle also contains an added 2.5 grams of my in-house rose of choice, Taifi Sultani, likely dating to the early eighties, with a full gram of another eighties beauty: Maroke SQ.

And then the whole brew swims in SQ’s ancient ambergris.

These aren’t just random additions. Maroke SQ and Mélange Priveé SQ are the perfect duo on their own, with their pristine herbascious sultry cool that stands in contrast with the bitter medicinal Nha Trang red. If you want to capture the juicy facets of the melange against the deep incense profile of vintage Maroke (i.e. the smell of Oud Royale No 1) oozing out of that legendary linear incense tone of pure Nha Trang gaharu, all against the backdrop of blue bliss, then there is no other perfume that’ll come even close.

And Taifi Sultani added to the rose already in BK is what makes all those ouds so diffusive – it’s why the finest old-school mukhallats are just that: rose and oud. All the while, the blue feels the sandy breeze, that oceanic, stony-pebble scent of excellent ambergris.

The compound alone is almost double the concentration of my own ‘Private Blend’. And Mystical Lotus alone is so good it’s become my new private blend, the perfume I’ve personally been using. Ask any OudFest attendee and they’ll tell you about my personal bottle of Mystical Lotus that’s always present.

The most exquisite flowers – blue lotus, rose, frangipani, and orange blossom drinking gallons of vintage sinking-grade ouds from a royal treasury that is now officially shut. Mystical Lotus is a heady, insanely dense, rich and extravagant to the point where cost was never a factor. Pretty much the only thing that prevents from doing more is that you’d end up with an attar too thick to spray.

Imagine that blue Brunei resin dripping from blue lotus petals. And the Ta’ifi roses and the vintage Maroke oud bubbling up from the bottom, that vintage mélange, and a trio of of literally the rarest Nha Trang distillations ever conducted.

⦿ On top of everything, your bottle contains pieces of raw, vintage Nha Trang agarwood to give the fragrance an authentic edge.

Mystical Lotus is extra ordinary, a swirling narcotic, a hypnotic if it didn’t keep pulling you in all dimensions. I got it the NYC Oudfest and could not believe how it transferred the Blue Kalbar into an enveloping world into which nothing can penetrate or bother you.

Monday blues was cheered up by the lovely blue Mystical Lotus…the combination of dense blue lotus, rose, floral, Pinoy… What a delightful mood-lifter scent.

Testing Mystical Lotus for the second time, and it continues to wow me again. There’s a hint of zesty orange peel, a very heavy dose of blue lotus and ouds in the opening, a hint of delicate roses, and a few other florals, it’s absolutely gorgeous! The scent as a whole is very rich, intense, dense, heavy, and full, but elegant at the same time, with a navy blue hue.

Complexity is off the chart on this Mystical Lotus, with a lot of depth, definitely in the same elite status as the Garden of Eden. This is a super premium EO release, if the cost wasn’t a factor I would have owned 100ml of this along with 100ml of Garden of Eden already, both of them are some of the most beautiful scent profiles I have ever smelled, absolutely stunning with an addictive quality to it, just

I received this today and I just sprayed it once on my wrist. Wow!

I can’t describe what I am smelling, but I do recall silently mouthing the word “wow”. I have not had the chance to smell many of the exclusive ouds and florals that went into this semi-bespoke or Blue Kalbar which forms the base so I had no idea what to expect.

This is honestly on a completely different level as far as what I have experienced before from a spray “perfume”. As it was a blind buy, I went with the 15ml
