Different Agarwood Scent profile between East and West Malaysia

Personally, i felt that the different scent of agarwood are affected by type of tree spieces(8 out of 17 are able to produce the precious resin), reason that causes the tree to produce resin and the amount of resin to give different notes to agarwood lovers.

We have came across many wood and to put it in a general and easy classification:

West Malaysia : Sweet and Woody/Earthly notes

East Malaysia : Flowery notes and some with spicy notes.

Depending on how you burn the wood and how you intepret the scent, my suggestion may be different and the most important thing is to pick those which you like and enjoy more.
