Fusen Red Soil Insect-Eaten Agarwood Powder

Sourced from the red soil hidden gem in the authentic Phu Tho region of Vietnam, it undergoes a dual natural refinement process: the honey-scented agarwood tree is bored by termites, prompting it to secrete resin and form insect-damaged agarwood. The resinous wood then topples into the soil, where it is mellowed by red clay infiltration. Over time, the wood fibers carbonize and decay, leaving only the concentrated resin deposits behind. When ground into powder, it becomes this elusive treasure in the world of aromatics.

It boasts a natural reddish-brown hue, with a fine, impurity-free texture that feels dry, smooth, warm and moist—oily yet not greasy. Thanks to its high resin content, it clumps naturally when left undisturbed. When broken apart, it reveals a glossy, oil-rich luster, with some fine carbonized fragments scattered within—these are the natural imprints of thousands of years buried underground.

When smelled raw, it exudes a sweet brown sugar aroma mixed with a subtle malty note. Once heated in an incense burner, its layered fragrance unfolds in full, earning it the reputation of a top-tier scent that “creates an immersive ambiance”
