I want to take this opportunity to let you know that other companies carry oud oils that are very good, but none of them seems to come close to the product that you provide. Even as a novice in oud as I have only been introduced to it via serendipity a few months ago, I can tell that your ouds are in a league all by themselves.

Believe it or not I have not bought a single drop of oud from anyone else but you. Like I said back then, I knew immediately that I had to not look anywhere else, that you are the one I look to for ouds. I rely on you for quality and that's it.

I've tried some of the other oils out there and to my mind yours are better by a country mile.

Jazak Allahu Khairan for all your help and for all your efforts in this amazing service to humanity. I cannot thank you enough for all of your countless sacrifices and for your honesty and morality in bringing the world 100% pure Oud of the best grade and quality. I pray that Allah places his divine pleasure and baraka in your noble efforts.

With regards to your efforts on cultivation and organic farming - alhamdu li Llah - what a great step! I would trust only you in this venture, and I have full confidence that you can and will pull this off. Only someone with infinite love and intimate detail for oud can see this through, and to me that can only be Ensar.
The journey from my first purchase to my most recent has been valuable. It has taught me a lot about Ensar Oud and his philosophy, and about myself. I have learnt that there is no one like Ensar in the Oud business and no oud in the business like Ensar's. I've learnt that I'm impatient once I've placed my order and very finicky about what I receive, when I receive it and how I receive it. I think your response to the present situation is befitting of yourself.

Dear brother Thomas,
Thanks to Ensar abi and you. May Allah Most High protect both of you. In sha Allah you will succeed in establishing organic Oud cultivation. As you know, this amazing scent was worn by many Shaikhs and Sufis throughout centuries. Helping you with this beautiful action is an honor for me.
Wa salaam,

I can guarantee that I will do a lot more future business with you. I believe your fragrances are the best in the world and that is why I sacrifice my hard earned cash on your products and I am starting my very own oud collection. I do not drink or smoke so one of my only pleasures in life is enjoying the sensual aromas of your very special oud oils. I am greatly appreciative of your generosity and consideration.

Having spent time with your oils now, I can say that they are truly in a class of their own, and each oil is absolutely unique! There is nothing 'standard' about any of them.
Neeshee Pandit, Fiji

Ensar Oud is a class act, all the way! I am excited as a child on his birthday to receive the packages - never having experienced in life scents so beautifully otherworldly and profound.
Thank you, Ensar, and everyone else involved in the blessing that is your Oud.
Sincerely,
Glenn, NJ

I should hate you for introducing me to your products. I haven't the money as the Great Recession of 2008 washed squarely against my door but I cannot resist. How is this for selfish: I typically wear it at home while I'm reading. I still read an actual book, not a pad, and the scent from my wrist wafts up transporting me further than the book itself does.
My best,
Jamie, USA

Mr. Ensar,
Thank you sincerely for the Oud Idrees and the Cambodi chips. You are a generous gentleman. I had to try the Idrees this morning before I got to the office... Wow! Never lets you forget it is a noble Assam, yet the marvelous fig and notes of sunshine, as you have so aptly put it.... and was that just a hint of black licorice I noticed for a fleeting moment? Simply bliss!
The LTD Oud is exceptional. I have spent many hours sitting quietly and pondering each one. They have brought me much peace and beneficial introspection. I only hope I can put into words my impressions. But at the moment there are few words to describe the very beautiful, intimate experience.
I am quite sure my favorite, hands down, is the Mostafa. You are correct in calling it serene. It summons in me great reverence. However, it is a medicine for me most of all. I apply it liberally, under chin and backs of wrists, and the very warm scent radiates up like steam and envelops my entire body, and into my being.... A very, very special Oud. I understand why it bears the name of your beloved Prophet!
Please know that I will always make allowances for the next LTD offering you make available. It is that important to me!
Most humbly, and eternally satisfied,
Glenn, NJ

Dear Ensar,
Oriscent is truly a Jewel. I am indeed fortunate to have found her. Your oils continually remind me of all that is wondrous in this world. Thank you so very much. May you forever prosper.
Don Harper, USA
________________________________________________________________
Dear Ensar,
I received my sampler today and, as suspected, was pleasantly surprised. The whole experience with Oriscent has, thus far, been a pleasant one. From dealing with Mr. Kruger to work out some past shipping issues, to receiving the order within just a few short days (even the plastic bubble wrap smelled good, my first indication that I had finally found the real deal), to opening that beautiful purple bag to reveal the little treasures hidden inside. Everything that I've experienced from Oriscent, from the service to the packaging to the actual product, has screamed QUALITY and has proven to me the great pride and care the people of Oriscent take in their product as well as their customers.
Originally from the US, I have been living in the UAE for over 16 years and have tirelessly searched for a good quality Oud, but with little success. Walking into shops, from the big names to the small dark alley ones, and trying supposed 'quality' ouds just to be, once again, disappointed. I've not purchased much over the years, as I've rarely found any that justified the prices being charged compared to the quality they offered. Oh, I've tried countless samples, but would never directly purchase an Oud immediately after just trying some. Instead, I would always tell the salesperson that I would wait a few hours to see how it lasts and develops and would be back if I liked it. Needless to say, I rarely, if ever returned as the scent always disappeared after a short while...hardly worth my hard earned money.
So far I've only tried the Irian Emerald and I simply love it! I plan to check out the others over the next few days, allowing one day for each sample, giving me time to experience each one with its different levels. I am confident that I will be more than pleased with the others as well and I'm already working out my budget for future purchases.
Based on what I have experienced here in the local market, I was always extremely weary to even attempt to purchase Oud online, but Oriscent has changed all that. You can consider me a faithful customer and I truly look forward to dealing with Oriscent for years to come. You have gained my confidence and my loyalty.
Thank you for a truly wonderful experience.
Yusuf, UAE

Sheikh Ensar,
The quality you offer is just unbeatable by anyone I know. I actually studied my Alim Course in Pakistan and during that time I got to know of a few Oud suppliers there. Yours beats theirs by miles and miles.
Alhamdulilah Ramadan is beautiful, and by the blessing of Allah I am leading the Taraweeh prayer for the 17th year. We have close to 200 people that complete the prayer. Please make dua that Allah accept it and also please request your Sheikh to also pray for us that Allah make us his Wali and from amongst the Siddiqeen.
Wasalam

My soul has grown in awakening after I came to Oriscent. And I have not bought anything, not even a sample, a drop, nothing from any other oud sellers. Nor am I going to. Since day one it was Oriscent and I simply have not felt any drive or thirst to explore further. Why should I? I knew immediately when I came to Oriscent that this is it.
When I then received my first few samples I knew this was something very, very special. And it smelled completely different from those $10-20 oils in the mosque shop. Those oils always gave me a headache.
Thank you, Ensar! What beautiful blessings you have brought me!
J. J. Gordon, Denmark
________________________________________________________________
Ahhh what a relief, the Oriscent website has remained quiet and calm for some days now, without any insane annoucements of some rare oud disappearing that you just gotta have. (Try live without the Borneo once you know it, good luck!)
Thank God things have mellowed out now, but I am sure it's only for a while, you know how the saying goes about the silence before the storm, and you know Ensar, suddenly he pops up out of nowhere from the woodworks (or rather agarworks) with a bag of you know what the finest most pristine Oud in the whole world and then we are back at it again (ordering!) clicking that mouse like a madman! :)
We owe his Shaykh and him gratitude, for sending Ensar in the right direction! Ensar certaintly dug up something useful, wouldn't you say! :)
Peace,
James

Assalamu 'Alaikum Ensar,
I always knew you had very good Oud oils, but after attending the ISNA conference, and sampling some of the oud oils available in the bazaar, I came to realize just how amazing your oils really are!
There were some "Borneos", and "Papuas", but when it came down to it, nothing compared to the oils I purchased from you. Thank you for making available the Quality that you do!
Insha'Allah as soon as I am able, I hope to purchase more from you. Until then, Ramadan Mubarak!

Hi Ensar,
I was delighted to hear that you are a Sufi, although I should have known given your passion for authenticity and our favorite doorway to the Divine - Oud. As you well know, many Americans are now familiar with Sufi poetry through some very fine translations of Rumi and others. Sadly, perhaps it is only through the Sufi expression that we may know Islam a bit better than we do. The poetry is sublime and "true" on so many levels and your glorious Oud helps access some of the psychic space within ourselves where the resonances of God and Art reside. Beyond simple "scent", the quality of your products really does bring us to a new and more sublime world for us to explore. My thanks and prayers for your continued contributions.
Tom Kennedy

Oud, your Oud, (I wouldn't know about any others nor am I interested in any others, only your Oriscent Oud I want) brings an increase in self awareness; whereas perfume just makes us fragrant, it does not relax us or awaken us. Oud does this. I feel Oud offers a strong powerful way to reconnect or balance ourselves from an unfocused state of mind to a focused state of mind. The way we view life and act can be profoundly altered if we bring Oud into our lives. Oud helps us to awaken and evolve spiritually. As for the one who is somewhat alert and awake, special blessings await him.
James John Gordon, Denmark

Hi Ensar,
Well... yet another bottle of magic to tempt me! With the economy so shaky, I should not do this but if I have to stand in the unemployment line I will at least smell like a Prince! Thank you!

Dear Ensar,
It was wonderful hearing from you! Your thanks for our orders is vastly appreciated, and indicative of what a kind and personable businessman you are, however I shall always maintain that the thanks should go to Oriscent - my wife and I feel it is a privilege to have the opportunity to own your Oud - the finest, most transporting anywhere!
Warmest regards and blessings!
Glenn

Thank you so very much for the oils you offer, they are gifts certainly from the Godhead! I have become a habituated devotee of your Oud line, especially the Brunei Supreme. The complexity and transporting capability of your pure Oud is an utterly singular experience having no equal. I will, without fail, allow for further Oud oils in next year's budget. Ensar, it is a pleasure doing business with your fine, fine company.
G. Ehlers, NJ

After the acquisition of a few inferior products via the internet, I came across your site. There was something in the descriptions of the products that made me realize that here was someone with real knowledge - not just a marketer, but a true lover of Oud, a connoisseur. That is when I took the plunge and ordered the Sampler.
Such subtlety! Such spiritual elegance! I have been so distracted by these oils that I have left a number of important things undone! Your oils have brought me a deep happiness.
Best regards,
L. Nichol, NM
________________________________________________________________
Dearest Ensar,
I want to thank you again for your kindness. I love your incredible oils and am so happy that I found you. There are many people out there that say they have the purest and the best, but most do not. I truly know and feel You are such a wonderful resource. These oils move my soul and I believe they open up certain parts of our memory that have been misunderstood. I believe there are certain gifts that are released to us, when we are exposed to such ancient scents. I for one, could never be without these precious jewels. Thank you so very, very much for making them available! I can't wait to receive my newest order!

Good day, Ensar...
Just a note to say 'thank you' for the Oud samples, which arrived in record time: around 8 days from order placement, from the US to Australia (Easter break included) - impressive.
I very much enjoyed each oil, some more than others... The Oud Royale, for which I just placed an order, the Borneo 3000 and Archipelago were particularly fine. All the samples offered strikingly multifaceted bouquets and uniqueness.
This is the first time I've sampled real agarwood oil, so I have little basis for comparison, but the purity and quality of all the Oud oils you sent me was obvious. Agarwood is indeed a complex, enigmatic thing, and no wonder it is reputed to be impossible to properly synthesize. When I sampled the Oud Royale, for example, what at first appeared to be slightly pungent and somewhat sour woodsiness abruptly transformed into warm, smooth, pleasantly intoxicating earthiness - quite enchanting!
I look forward to receiving the Oud Royale.
Kind regards
K. Clayton, Australia

Dear Ensar:
I just wanted to write today and say how much I am enjoying the Oriscent Ouds. Your products are certainly the BEST available and provide an uplifting experience.
I keep an eye on your beautiful webpage too!
I am not currently ready to purchase any additional Ouds but keep me in mind for early August. I am now getting ready to travel to Slovakia on research and will return in late July. All remaining funds are going to be kept for OUD!!!
My best wishes and gratitude.
John Leonard B., WI

Thank you, Ensar!
I recently received your Agarwood Oil Sampler. I must say I was astonished. I have bought a number of agarwood oils over the internet. Most have been inferior, some have been good, but none of them come close to the quality of your oils. Being fairly new to Oud, I was a little concerned at the price of your oil, but now I know - you get what you pay for!
In all seriousness, your products are otherworldly. Such quality, such sheer delight. I have never experienced anything - including my beloved Kyara incense - that is so mysterious, so evocative, so sublime as your Ouds.
Many thanks to you my friend...
L. Nichol, NM
________________________________________________________________
Dear Ensar,
With regard to the sample of Oud Royale I received from you, I can only say that it is truly heavenly. Though I have been enamored of agarwood from the moment I first smelled it 7 years ago, and have sampled some Ouds of exceptional quality, I have never come across the equal of the Oud Royale. The sublime quality your product, along with your excellent customer service, have ensured that I will always return to Oriscent to procure, quite simply, the best Oud that I have yet found.
Many Thanks,
M. Cleaver, NM

Just to say the oils came shortly after recieving your e-mail. You have another very satisfied customer who can only commend you on your products, service and customer care. May Oriscent and staff be granted much success.

Oriscent was the first place I purchased Oud from. I fell in love with it, but didn't know much about Oud. Thinking I was smart, I bought some from other sources to build a collection of scents, and perhaps save a little money. Finally, my wife came to me and said, "I don't care how much you spent on the other stuff, but please stop wearing it. They all stink. From now on, I only want you to wear the Oud from Oriscent." True story. Enough said.

Dear Ensar,
The second package with the Oud Sultan Murad and the Wild Amber arrived at my home yesterday!
And what else can I do than to repeat the words I already said about your other products!!!
Each fragrance is a pure, unique and overwhelming artwork of the Almighty and Merciful Creator!
And I start wondering whether you are ever going to sell something of just 'normal' quality... :)
The Wild Amber has put a spell on me! It's so mind-blowing that I can't get my nose away from it!!! A great pleasure to have these fragrances in my collection!
It is an honor to see my comments on your new webpage (which looks very beautiful: congratulations!!!)
:)
I will for sure come back to buy some more from you soon!
(And my friend will also)
:)
Until then my brother:
Thanks for all. May God bless you and your family!
A. A. Schulz, Germany

PS: Do you have any idea on how I can extract the amber from my ambergris stone? I bought one a year ago and I found many recipes for extracting it with alcohol. But I am looking for a way without alcohol. Otherwise I have no idea what to do with the stone, even though it smells nice...(like the ambergris oil you sold me)
________________________________________________________________
Dear Ensar...
You and I need to become good friends, because I truly love good scents but am not so rich as to afford them... and you're the scent man :)
Take care,
Erol

Dear Ensar!
The package from FedEx arrived today at my home.
I couldn't wait for my friend to open it and to try the fragrances.
:)
I tried each of them like a big ceremony, together with my wife!
It was like, they came direct from heaven!!!
Each sample you sent me was great and very interesting!
Thank you very much for the additional samples (Aloeswood Attar, Indian Jasmine, Turkish Rose Attar and Saffron Attar) You have sent more than I had expected!!!
:)))
Thanx a lot!!!
The Amber you sent me, I can tell that it was made from a high grade ambergris stone (not like the one I bought from Mecca, which was made from a low quality amber stone) it is very nice and smells exactly like the high quality ambergris stone I have at home!
:)
The best of all are the Oud samples. Each of them is a treasure and exactly as you described them!!!
And the king of them all is really the Oud Royale!
Its name stands for its quality!!!
It has a very intoxicating, lovely and beautiful smell!!!
It's just great!
I am happy to be one of the few people who have some of it!!!
:)))))
Thank you for filling them with more than I paid for!!!
May God bless your generosity for that!!!
I will let people (who care about fragrances and Oud) know what quality you sell!
I always get surprised at what great fragrances the Almighty has created and how multifaceted they are!
I am afraid I will have to stop here and go back to my samples again, they are calling me!
:)))
May God bless you and your family!
A. A. Schulz, Germany

Thank you for your good advice. The scents are everything you promised. Since fragrance is a kind of hobby of mine, this Oud adventure has ruined me for more traditional scents.
I think it is because the Oud is the closest thing to the various scents of the human body (like them or not) and after all these years it turns out that that is what I have been looking for! Not cover-up scents but enhancements of what is already there.
It has been great fun and I look forward to receiving the Pure Indian Oud and again thank you for your useful information. This is a new and fascinating area of study for me.
T. Kennedy, NY
________________________________________________________________
Dear Ensar,
All I can say is WOW! Yes, and THANK YOU!
I have now had a little time to live with the oils you sent me, and it has been truly educational. Everything that you have said to me is so true, and I can feel my senses opening in a deep and profound way. We did have a few of the Arab perfumes in our home, but your oils have made everything else seem like a weak, one-dimensional imitation of the real thing.
At the moment I am still getting to know each of the oils, discovering the layers as they reveal themselves... I love it! To experience the way your oils evolve on the skin cannot be explained to anyone! Magnificent!
Kind Regards,
Sage, CA

Dear Madam/Sir:
I just recieved your Oud al-Hindi and wanted to write you to let you know how pleased I am with it. It does have that lovely sweet smell of jinko that one finds in the Japanese incense as in the Indonesian and Thai varieties.
Please let me know if you further refine your aloeswood oils in this vein to reflect some of the spicier notes or especially if you ever find one which resembles that most refined and rarest of all, kyara koh.
I wish you a happy and joyous holiday season, and hope to do business with you again soon.
Very warmest regards,
R. Anhaiser

Dear Ensar,
I received your Oud Sampler recently, which I found astonishing. I am fairly new to Oud, but your products make me crazy - I am already an addict!
Sincerely,
L. Nichol, NM
________________________________________________________________
Aloha Ensar,
I just wanted to thank you so much for your kindness and your wonderful contribution. I do believe that Oud and Agarwood are among the most ancient, timeless and beautiful scents known to man. I truly know that I could never be without them in my life. I feel that they open certain parts of the brain that cannot be reached in any other way. I am so very grateful to you for bringing the finest quality to others. Many people say they have these precious oils, but since many people do not know what to expect, they are taken advantage of. You are truly a Blessing and again I truly feel your oils are the finest and I want to thank you so much. This is the true medicine of the soul from this incredible Earth that we all share! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am so looking forward to receiving my new order! Please take care of your wonderful self.
Fragrant blessings to all,
J. Cummings, HI
