While in very forest of Imphal and Naroni there are still thousands of trees of Agarwood oil but they are not accessible.
A special fungus is used for saturating the wood of Agar. After that we leave this saturated wood into a water tank for several months. Finally we used that resin like material for distillation of oud oil. The real oud comes on to top of the receiver after steam distillation. Middle layer belongs to the second grade of oud and lower layer is called residue which further used for making low cost oud with synthetic bases. The real oud is not very viscous material.
