Agarwood Blog
Wholesale sourcing guides for UAE, Saudi Arabia, Japan (koh), Kuwait, Oman, USA, EU and 10+ more markets — plus bakhoor guide, oud oil, seedlings, bracelets, decor and CITES compliance. 60 guides from AgarwoodTown's 10-year team.
What does the AgarwoodTown blog cover?
The AgarwoodTown blog is a library of 60 buying guides for wholesale agarwood, oud oil and bakhoor buyers, written by Wang Jianyu, the founder who grades our agarwood in Dianbai, Guangdong. The guides are grouped into 8 topics: 1) Education; 2) Essential Oil; 3) Sourcing Reference; 4) Bracelets; 5) Jewelry; 6) Collectibles; 7) Plantation; 8) Incense.
Each guide shows the date it was published and the date it was last updated, and 60 of the 60 long-form guides list their sources in a References section, from CITES documents to peer-reviewed studies. Prices in the guides come from our data on current quotes, not from marketplace listings. For example, the oud oil guide explains how to read a GC-MS report before paying a deposit. How we write and correct the guides is set out in our editorial policy.
