Description
SHAWQ – The Wood has arrived, and you can pair it with SHAWQ – The Oil
When placing a tiny piece of SHAWQ on the white fluffy ash of the charcoal burner the initial waft is a wondery my bending floral scent, not rose, not jasmine but a dark blue lotus not immersed in ambergris, progressing into a deep ocean of amber resin with wisps of dark dry oudh wood that is resonating with resin. Add to that a few touches of Tobacco, some spices, and a faint tremor of freshly slashed herbs. Marrying intermittently with silky rich leather and the woodiness that is synonymous with the best of Hindi oudhs. These chips don’t smell like woods burning they are a complete perfumery experience. The beauty is you don’t need a lot of heat to the get these lovely chips to sing, in fact they enjoy the lighter heat. These chips have more oil than the woods you maybe used to, so the delicate notes are plenty and what a treat Shawq is.

Background
The Arabic word for longing, yearning and desire or eagerness towards something, SHAWQ is our desire to bring to life Oudh of the past; here is an opportunity to enjoy both the wood and oil.
In the Arabian Peninsula burning Oudh Wood as incense was and continues to be relished as a daily part of life. Winding down after meals have been served, the coffee simmering away on a make shift wood fire, a piece of charcoal is placed on the renowned Mabkhara, allowed to rest to white ash and a wonderful resinous Oudh chip placed upon the charcoal to bubble away as family and friends relax and leisurely sip away on spiced Arabic Coffee and revel in the aromatic wafts of Oudh.
