Natural Agarwood stands as a timeless substance employed in perfumery. When afflicted by specific fungi, this wood undergoes a transformation, producing dark streaks infused with a fragrant oleoresin. The deepest grade, known as black or true agar, takes on a resemblance to black stone due to its profound saturation with oil. This resin is prized for its opulent, intricate, potent, woody-ambery aroma. Despite its remarkable olfactory qualities, it remains an exceptionally costly and rare material. Black Agar Givco 215 captures the distinct fragrance emitted when Agarwood chips are burned.
