Agarwood,
also known as oud, oodh or agar,
is a dark resinousheartwood that
forms inAquilaria and Gyrinops[1] trees
(large evergreens native to southeast Asia)
when they become infected with a type
of mould.
Prior to infection, the heartwood is relatively light and pale
coloured; however, as the infection progresses, the tree produces a
dark aromatic resin in response to the attack, which results in a
very dense, dark, resin embedded heartwood. The resin embedded wood
is commonly called gaharu, jinko, aloeswood, agarwood,
or oud (not
to be confused with \'Bakhoor\')
and is valued in many cultures for its distinctive fragrance, and
thus is used for incense and perfumes.
Sandalwood is
the name of a class of fragrantwoods from
trees in the genusSantalum.
The woods are heavy, yellow, and fine-grained, and unlike many
other aromatic woods they retain their fragrance for
decades. Essential oils are
also extracted from the woods for use. Both the wood and the oil
produce a distinctive fragrance that has been highly valued for
centuries. Consequently, the slow-growing trees have been
overharvested in many areas.
