Aquilaria sinensis is made of resin-containing wood after years of deposition. Daphne odora is a very precious wood since ancient times, and it is also the best raw material for making handicrafts. Aquilaria sinensis is a kind of balsam invaded and parasitized by Daphne family fungi, which has been changed and deposited for many years. It is a precious medicinal material, which has the effects of removing dirt and pathogens and calming the liver. Now it is very rare!
Aquilaria sinensis, also known as "submerged fragrance" and "water agarwood", is written as "agarwood" in the old saying. The word "Shen" in the ancient saying "Shen Musk" refers to agarwood. Aquilaria sinensis has been listed as the first fragrance since ancient times.
Different from sandalwood, agarwood is not a kind of wood, but a special fragrant tree, which is a solid condensate of oil (resin) and wood components. But the wood of this fragrant tree itself has no special fragrance, and the wood is soft. According to the current research, several trees of Aquilaria of Daphne, such as Aquilaria malayi, Aquilaria Vientiane and Aquilaria India, can form Aquilaria. Generally speaking, the greater the density of agarwood, the more condensed resin and the better the quality. Therefore, the ancients often divided agarwood into different grades according to whether it can sink into water: those that sink into water are called "submerged" incense; Secondly, those who are semi-floating and semi-sinking are called "stack incense" (stack, woven with bamboo), also known as "note (sound" fried ") incense" and "water incense"; Once again, a little enters the water and floats on the water surface, which is called "yellow ripe fragrance"
Because agarwood is naturally condensed, its size and shape vary greatly, so the ancients took many interesting names for its characteristics, such as: tooth incense (small in size, like a horse's teeth), leaf incense (thin in shape), chicken bone incense (with a gap inside, like a chicken bone), light incense (with a dry rock appearance, mostly used for display), and water pan head (large in size and good in texture).
The water tanks in agarwood are mostly less than ten centimeters in width and dozens of centimeters in length; High quality is generally dense and even as hard as rock; The surface is very uneven; Most of the colors are green, dark green, yellow, brown or black, the oil is dark, and the xylem is light yellow and white, mixed with various textures; Aquilaria sinensis with high oil content is often dark in color, moist in texture, easy to ignite, and even boiling oil can be seen when burning.
Humans have paid attention to agarwood for more than 3,000 years, and it has a history of more than 2,000 years in China. Tao Hongjing's Bielu of Famous Doctors in the Liang Dynasty was first published in China, and it was listed as "top grade". There are abundant records of agarwood in the historical materials of Sui and Tang Dynasties, which were further popularized and developed in the late Tang and Five Dynasties. In the Song Dynasty, a good agarwood was known as the "king of incense", the incense culture reached its peak, and "incense" had been completely integrated into social life. Since then, this kind of incense has been used for a long time until the Ming and Qing Dynasties. In the Ming dynasty, it became "an inch of land and gold."
Aquilaria sinensis is not a kind of wood, but a kind of solid condensate mixed with special resin, wood, microorganisms and other ingredients. Aquilaria sinensis can only be formed on trees of Aquilaria sinensis belonging to Daphne family, and grows in tropical rain forests of Southeast Asia. Healthy agarwood trees do not produce agarwood out of thin air. It must be damaged by lightning, strong wind, even animal and insect bites, artificial logging and other forms. Aquilaria sinensis will secrete resin to heal the wound. During this period, the wound part happened to be infected by a microorganism called yellow-green fungus. In order to survive tenaciously in trees, this fungus will undergo adversity metabolism, which is a wonderful biochemical reaction process. The antibody substance of the tree itself is mixed with the yellow-green fungi that invade the tree, and a compound called "benzyl acetone" is gradually produced. With the deepening of biochemical process, sesquiterpenes and chromones are formed, which are called "agarwood".
Aquilaria sinensis can be divided into agarwood, raft fragrance and yellow ripe fragrance according to its oil content. Submerged water, also called submerged water, is it the essence or the middle part of agarwood? The tighter and firmer part of the cream? Throw it into the water and it will sink? Is it drowning? Half-floating and half-sinking is called a raft? What is not heavy is called yellow ripe incense. It varies according to the type of origin. According to its formation, Aquilaria sinensis can be generally divided into six categories: soil sinking, water sinking, lodging, ant sinking, living sinking, white wood and so on. Generally speaking, the darker the color, the denser the texture and the better the quality. According to its formation process, Aquilaria sinensis can be divided into four types: mature knot, raw knot, shedding and insect leakage. A piece of agarwood, whose fat is decomposed and condensed in complete nature, is called cooked knot. Because the agarwood tree was cut by a knife and axe, the paste and oil that flowed out condensed into a knot. The rotten and condensed agarwood of wood itself is called shedding, and the ointment condensed by insects is called insect leakage.
Aquilaria sinensis is rare in Chinese mainland, but there are some in Hui 'an. Now there are some in Vietnam, Thailand, India, Malaysia, Cambodia and other places. Because agarwood is very rare, it is not easy to form. At present, Chinan in Vietnam is the best agarwood, but the quantity is very small.
It is better for the oil of Aquilaria sinensis to be strong and fragrant. Qinnanxiang is a special fine variety of Aquilaria sinensis, and their causes are basically the same as Aquilaria sinensis. But there are many differences between the two, so it is customary to list Qinnanxiang as a single category as the top grade of Aquilaria sinensis. Most of Qinnanxiang is not as dense as Aquilaria sinensis, mostly semi-sinking and semi-floating, but the top grade Qinnanxiang is as heavy as Aquilaria sinensis. Most of agarwood is hard, while Qin 'an is soft and sticky, and the chopped incense can even be kneaded into fragrant balls. Under the microscope, it can be found that the oil glands of Phoebe bournei are lifelike, and its oil content is higher than that of common agarwood. The aroma of Qinnan is sticky and soft, but the tingling taste of the tongue will not cause discomfort, and the aroma is sweet and rich. Aquilaria sinensis is a valuable medicinal material with antibacterial and immune functions in nature, and its smell is fragrant. It enters the lung, kidney, spleen, stomach and meridians, and is the best medicine among qi-promoting drugs. It can regulate the movement of qi in human body and dredge the functions of internal organs, and is very effective for lung, kidney, liver, stomach, intestine and heart. In terms of treatment and function, such as: lung (tuberculosis, asthma), kidney (tonifying kidney, diuresis, strengthening yang), liver (hepatitis, cirrhosis, hepatomegaly), stomach (gastric ulcer, gastritis, stomachache), intestine (constipation). It also has curative effect on chronic diseases such as cancer, and has special curative effect on strengthening the heart and calming the nerves. The famous Japanese medicine "Jiuxin Pill" contains high-grade agarwood-Qinan.
Aquilaria sinensis is a treasure in the history of Chinese medicine, which has been recorded by doctors in past dynasties. Compendium of Materia Medica means "pungent smell, mild nature and non-toxic. It has the effects of lowering qi, nourishing kidney and warming middle warmer, and clearing liver heat, and can be used for treating symptoms such as upper heat and lower cold, qi-adverse wheezing, large intestine deficiency, urinary stranguria, and male cold. " "Rihuazi Materia Medica" records its medicinal functions as "regulating middle energizer, nourishing five internal organs, benefiting essence and strengthening yang, warming waist and knees, and eliminating evil spirits. Stop twitching muscles, vomiting and diarrhea, cold air, break addiction, treat numbness due to wind-cold, itching of joints and skin, heart and abdominal pain, and gas dysentery. "At the same time, the medical function of Aquilaria Resinatum is also discussed in the famous doctor's Bielu, Leigong Processed Medicinal Properties and Shennong Herbal Classic Notes, which shows its prominent position in the field of traditional Chinese medicine.
In addition to its medicinal value of "cooling, warming kidney and absorbing qi", Aquilaria sinensis can also be made into a variety of Chinese patent medicines for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, digestion, respiration, rheumatism and other diseases together with other medicinal materials. According to Ben Feng Jingyuan, "It is used with Perilla frutescens and Cardamom to treat stomach cold and vomiting." "When used together with Poria cocos and Ginseng, it can benefit qi and calm the heart, communicate the heart and kidney, and treat mental deficiency". When mixed with Radix Aucklandiae, Herba Cistanches, Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, Cortex Cinnamomi, etc. Different effects are achieved respectively, and the curative effect is excellent. Nowadays, agarwood is still widely used in pharmacy. Watermelon frost Tuireling Capsule, which is listed as the basic Chinese patent medicine for emergency treatment by the State Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, is mainly composed of Aquilaria Resinatum, which is also an indispensable ingredient in drugs such as "Aquilaria Resinatum Huaqi Pill" and "Shi Xiang Huansheng Pill". It is precisely because agarwood is very rare in nature and has high medicinal value that it has been praised as one of the precious medicinal materials since ancient times, which is very precious. The agarwood with hard texture and full oil is also an excellent carving material. Aquilaria wood carving is simple and vigorous, deep and moist, with unique charm and great collection value. Thymelaeaceae has high technical requirements for sculptors, which is much more difficult than other wood materials. Thymelaeaceae embodies the characteristics of oilwood with uneven texture. The oil outside and inside is not easy to handle, so it is not easy to cut. So good agarwood wood carving is extremely rare and precious.
Aquilaria sinensis is a rare natural collection under the joint action of temperature, humidity, external bacteria and secretion of fragrant trees. Any quantity is slightly different, resulting in different quality levels and different tastes. And it takes at least ten years or even hundreds of thousands of years to form, so its original value is quite expensive. Nowadays, with the help of famous sculptors, works of art after artificial "beauty" are more valuable. On the basis of the original work, it is endowed with certain humanistic value, which adds a unique personality to its vitality and is naturally widely sought after. What's more, it is called "Crazy Wood".
Like any species in the world, Aquilaria sinensis has also completed its transformation, boldly stepped into the art hall, transformed into a hot product, and collected it like bamboo. In recent years, agarwood has hit record highs at auctions such as Poly and Guardian. In 20 12, a carved agarwood in Xianshan Pavilion, which was embedded in a mirror, sold for a sky-high price of 20.7 million yuan, breaking the auction record of China agarwood art. 10 years ago, the top agarwood was 100 yuan, and today it is 10,000 yuan a gram. Even the best agarwood has no market. Aquilaria sinensis is widely known from early incense utensils. Incense burners of red sandalwood, blue and white jade agate are all bidding at high prices, but the essence of the utensils, the spice itself, has jumped out of the strange circle and dominated the art collection with irresistible high potential.
The fundamental reason is the scarcity of its resources, which shows the symbol of power and status. Aquilaria sinensis has a wide range of uses, with practical effects such as exorcising evil spirits, removing filth, refreshing the brain and preserving health. With the decrease of resources, it becomes more precious. As far as art itself is concerned, it not only has the practical effect of agarwood, but also has the traditional folk carving art of Han nationality, plus the cultural connotation and humanistic charm behind it, which is the icing on the cake. It's really an expensive product. Because agarwood is rare, its maintenance needs more attention. Shen Xiang is extremely afraid of the erosion of chemical reagents and should not be exposed to the sun. Strong sunlight will deteriorate it and should be hidden below 40 degrees Celsius. Furthermore, according to Buddhism, agarwood products have certain spirituality and can drive away evil spirits, so we should maintain personal hygiene and respect works of art every day.
Nowadays, Aquilaria sinensis has gradually entered the homes of ordinary people. Whether it is home health care or investment collection, it is an excellent choice for urbanites, especially white-collar workers and entrepreneurs who are accompanied by fast-paced work all day and extremely lack channels to relieve their mood and stress. The "20 13 World Aquilaria Exhibition", which is about to kick off in the New World Treasure Hall, brings together the world's top agarwood, portable agarwood ornaments, famous wood carvings and various kinds of incense, meeting all consumer needs. It is an experience trip that agarwood lovers should not miss! Baoduan agarwood is a subsidiary of Beijing Baoduan Tonghe Culture Development Co., Ltd., and it is also the first brand in China that focuses on top agarwood incense and agarwood ornaments. Founded in 2006, by 20 13, it invested in three branches in Beijing, and gradually formed a national chain organization centered on Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. As the only agarwood brand in China that skips the middleman and is directly supplied from the place of origin; Bao focuses on the excavation of the natural value of agarwood, and strictly selects products with "100% natural agarwood" as the standard; Through resource integration, we have established close strategic cooperative relations with many enterprises across the country.
Main projects: agarwood wholesale, agarwood dealer/agent recruitment, incense training, agarwood series product chain store, agarwood aromatherapy product chain store, agarwood beads customization, agarwood gift box customization.
Main products: agarwood ornaments (agarwood beads, agarwood ornaments), spices (agarwood, sandalwood incense, heavy cigarettes), aromatherapy (agarwood thread incense, sandalwood thread incense, agarwood coil incense, sandalwood coil incense, agarwood powder, agarwood incense tablets), incense sticks (incense sticks, incense burners), incense sticks (incense sticks) When it comes to agarwood collection, people naturally. In fact, agarwood can also become incense and spices. The agarwood powder and thread incense made of agarwood have gradually entered collectors and become the new collection direction of agarwood. The thread incense made of agarwood is divided into several grades. Low-grade incense uses agarwood shell and Daphne as raw materials, while high-grade incense uses agarwood as raw materials. Nowadays, more and more people collect the spices of agarwood in the process of collecting agarwood. Aquilaria sinensis blended with various spices will not damage its collection value, but will add a lot of color to its collection. If it is high-end agarwood incense, it is sold by Kelai, so it is also called luxury in the collection. Other wood flour is added to the common agarwood incense on the market, so different agarwood incense will emit different flavors after being ignited.
Aquilaria sinensis has always been known as the "first in fragrance" and is a rare medicinal material with antibacterial and immune enhancement effects in nature. When burning, it gives off a faint fragrance, which can promote qi circulation and relieve pain, stop vomiting and relieve asthma. At the same time, it also improves the quality of sleep and relieves symptoms such as insomnia, headache and excessive stress. Therefore, agarwood is not a simple collection, but a combination of aromatherapy and medicine, which can also improve the quality of life of collectors in the process of collection.
According to historical records, China's incense culture began in the Spring and Autumn Period, grew in the Han Dynasty, completed in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. As early as the Han dynasty, agarwood has become a good product in the furnace of princes and nobles. With the prosperity and development of Buddhism, Taoism, Christianity and other religions, agarwood is used more frequently. The reason why agarwood is widely used as perfume is that the smell it emits when burning is elegant and clean, which is easy to make people calm and enter a peaceful state. It has the effect of naturally regulating the internal qi of the human body and dredging the internal organs. It is a natural health care product.
The topic of "health preservation" has always been a hot topic, especially in the court, "fragrance" is one of the most commonly used health preservation methods. From China's upper-class royalty, even today's Arabs and Japanese royalty have the habit of making incense with agarwood. As a good product of invigorating qi, agarwood has a remarkable effect on the treatment and conditioning of sleep. "Burning agarwood to relieve summer heat" is a rare product for urbanites with fast pace of modern life and busy anxiety all day. It can nourish the body, nourish the heart and preserve health.
Aquilaria sinensis can be made into powder incense, or its essence can be extracted to make Aquilaria sinensis oil. The unique fragrance of this natural spice has the functions of sleeping, anti-depression, pleasure and aphrodisiac, and can achieve the effect of nourishing the heart. For home life, the fragrance of agarwood also has miraculous effects in mosquito repellent, sterilization, dehumidification and air improvement. The tea made from it is even more rare, with rich aroma and unique flavor. It is sweet after entering the throat, and the tea fragrance is long, refreshing and lasting. Trace elements in tea can be described as a special energy supplement for human body, which has the effects of relieving cough and asthma, eliminating epidemic diseases and lowering blood fat. Experiments in Southeast Asian countries show that drinking agarwood tea for a long time has a good effect on intractable skin diseases. It also has excellent pharmacological effects in digestive system, circulatory system and central nervous system, and is really a good recipe for health preservation. Xiangdao is a practice that combines the aroma and smoke shape produced by spices with the artistic arrangement of incense utensils and the living environment of Xiangdao, and adds elegant and beautiful lighting and smelling methods to create relevant literary, philosophical and artistic works through the above memories or associations, thus making people's lives more rich and interesting.
Xiangdao occupies an important page in China's excellent cultural tradition. The culture of using incense can be traced back to 2500 years ago, and the evolution of China incense culture can be roughly divided into several stages:
Before the Western Han Dynasty, the main materials for burning incense were herbs such as citronella resin, which were used to repel mosquitoes, weed and prevent plague. By the middle of the Western Han Dynasty,
Resin spices, such as borneol from the South China Sea and even the far west, were introduced to the Central Plains. Because of its rich fragrance, it is widely loved by royalty, nobles and scholars. Because this kind of incense material needs to be smoldered with charcoal fire, the production of incense utensils is more complicated and exquisite. This can be proved by a large number of "Boshan furnaces" unearthed in the Han Dynasty.
During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, Buddhism gained further popularity and prosperity due to the important support for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas when offering incense. Therefore, the culture of using incense is also popular in all walks of life and is a necessity for people's livelihood.
Because of the economic prosperity and social stability in the Tang and Song Dynasties, China's literary talent reached its peak, and the use of precious incense such as agarwood became more elegant and fashionable at that time. The combination of incense, piano, chess, books and paintings is especially popular among literati, who enjoy the elegant fragrance bath and burning incense to caress the piano and recite poems.
Since the invention of linear incense in Yuan Dynasty, the production of delicious incense has become more diversified. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, sandalwood became an indispensable item for the court and aristocratic families. Moreover, all kinds of incense burners created by incense in history are loved and treasured by future generations.
Ancient gentlemen had four elegance-fighting incense, tasting tea, arranging flowers and hanging pictures, among which mastering incense was the first talent. The fragrance culture handed down by the ancients is rich in connotation. It is fragrant and beautiful, paying attention to elegance, implication and artistic conception, and its fragrance, utensils, use and chanting are also colorful and full of interest; It can also protect the body and mind, open the mind, and achieve spiritual understanding in the use of fragrance and appearance, so that people like it from the bottom of their hearts.
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Mi liked to go into the mountains alone with incense and choose a flat place to sit on the floor. After burning incense, the fragrance blends with the fragrance of trees in the mountains, so that the body and mind are immersed in the green mountains and green waters and special fragrance, "relaxing the mood and understanding the principles of heaven and earth"; The fragrance of Cai Jing in the Song Dynasty should have momentum, so that the smoke can flourish; Xu Xuan burned incense with the moon all his life. ......
Aquilaria sinensis has extremely high incense value. There are four kinds of incense: agarwood, sandalwood, Long Xianxiang and musk. The ancients often said "the musk deer", in which agarwood was the head. The fragrance of agarwood when burning is a kind of quiet and elegant fragrance, which is easy to calm people down and enter a peaceful state. Incense burner, hand burner, incense barrel, incense cone, lying stove, smoked ball, incense tray, incense box, incense clip, incense stick, incense shovel, incense spoon, incense bag, etc. Rich in modeling, it has become a beautiful landscape in Xiang culture.
Taiwan Province Province and Japan took the lead in promoting the development of modern incense. Using incense and tasting incense have become an indispensable part of their lives, and now they have developed into unique Taiwan Province incense and Japanese incense. With the development of spice trade and spice industry, spice culture has gradually spread to various countries and regions and penetrated into all aspects of social life. Wild natural agarwood can be divided into four categories according to the causes of aroma formation:
1. "Mature knot": After the tree dies, the roots and trunks fall to the ground or sink into the soil, and after years of wind and rain, they slowly decompose and shrink, leaving the condensate mainly composed of oil. For example, (Compendium of Materia Medica) said, "Old wood, rotten skin for many years, woody branches do not rot. Hard and black is also agarwood. "
Second, "knot": the fragrant knot formed when the tree is alive. Deep wounds are caused by external forces such as knives, axes, snakes and insects. The incense tree will ooze resin to protect itself, thus making incense near the wound.
Third, "falling off": the fragrance produced after the branches rot.
Fourth, "insect leakage": the fragrance formed by tree insects and bacteria eroding trees.
Due to the shortage of resin glands in short-lived fragrant trees, it is generally more than several decades before fragrant trees can form agarwood, and it takes a long time from fragrance to maturity. Some fragrant trees have a life span of hundreds or even thousands of years, and the agarwood that remains after lodging often has a "life span" of hundreds or even longer. Therefore, the ancients praised agarwood for "gathering the aura of heaven and earth for thousands of years", so the top grade natural agarwood is priceless.
The output of natural agarwood is limited, and now it is mostly cultivated artificially. Often, some "wounds" are cut or drilled on the trunk of mature fragrant trees, or some fungi are laid. After a year or several years, agarwood will grow near the wound. The longer the year, the better the quality of the incense. But even if it is cultivated artificially, it usually takes more than 10 years to make incense. Daphne plants grow in high temperature and humidity environment, which can be roughly divided into Hui, Xian Zhou Shen and Qi.
1, Huian Shen: In the early days, Nha Trang in Hue in central Vietnam and mountainous areas near Hue were the main areas, and Da Nang was the distribution center (including the border between Vietnam and Laos).
2. Sin Chau Hui: In the early days, it was mainly Malaysia (Kuching and other places), scattered in Shumendala, Kalivandan, Ambon and Timor, and now it is mainly Hiran Island.
3. Odd: It is the most precious agarwood. Chewing is slightly soft (because it is greasy) and slightly sweet in bitter hemp; Smell it, it is clear as honey, and the aroma is lasting; Hold it down, and the hot air will dissipate, which is commonly known as ice sinking.
There is also a special category in agarwood: Qin 'an. Qinan is a word translated from Sanskrit. In the Buddhist scriptures of the Tang Dynasty, it was often written as Dogalo, and later it had the names of Galand, Ganan and Qin 'an. The origin of Qin 'an is basically the same as that of ordinary agarwood, but there are many differences between them, so it is customary to make it into a separate category and list it as the top grade of agarwood. Some people say that it takes three generations to smell strange incense, and eight generations to taste or drink strange incense.
Qi Nan has no agarwood density, and the first-class agarwood sinks when it enters the water, while many first-class Qi Nan are semi-sinking and semi-floating; Most of Aquilaria sinensis is hard, while Qin 'an is soft and sticky. Nails will sag when pinched gently, and will be soft as mud when cut with a meat cleaver, and the sawdust will curl constantly, and the cut fragments can even form Zhu Xiang. When the tip of the tongue is touched, it is not spicy, but hemp. The numbness will last for about half an hour. I don't know what it smells like during this time, and my mouth is full of saliva, and the strange fragrance will not retreat for a long time; The viscosity of sawdust chewing is like maltose. If you chew it several times, the sawdust will be digested in your mouth. Under the microscope, it can be found that the oil glands in Aquilaria sinensis gather together, while the oil glands in Qin' an are lifelike; The oil content of Chimonanthus praecox is generally higher than that of Aquilaria sinensis, and its aroma is sweeter and richer. Heating at constant temperature, smelling its fragrance, such as orchid, is rich and lasting. Most agarwood has almost no fragrance when it is not lit, but unlike Qin 'an, Qin 'an can emit a cool and sweet smell when it is not lit, and Qin 'an's output is less than that of agarwood. Due to various reasons, Qinan is particularly precious, and Qinan in Vietnam is even more rare.
Known as the "diamond in plants", agarwood combines the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and the accumulation of years. Even the best agarwood can reach three times the value of gold. It can be said that it is "heavy" and "fragrant", which has been loved by the world for thousands of years. Aquilaria sinensis itself is also an extremely precious medicinal material and can also be used to make perfume. In the most expensive perfume, countless lives of Aquilaria sinensis are bound to precipitate. For example, most of the expensive perfumes produced in France are inseparable from agarwood. Its content is very small, but it is indispensable and plays a role in stabilizing fragrance.
The agarwood caused by animal bites, external trauma, man-made cuts, snakes, insects, ants and other erosion will produce wounds, but the wounds will certainly not heal so quickly. The wound will be infected by microorganisms and other factors, and the external hot and humid environment will corrode the wound and be invaded and parasitic by fungi. Under the action of bacteria, the starch stored in wood parenchyma cells will undergo a series of changes, which will gradually become Aquilaria sinensis and oil separation, and then the wound will form a paste-like lump.
Aquilaria Resinatum is mainly distributed in China, Hainan Province, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesian Islands and other Southeast Asian regions. According to the charm of Shen Yuanliu, it can be divided into "Hui 'an School" and "Xingzhou School". Hui 'an system is mainly produced in China, Hainan, Viet Nam, Laos, Cambodia, Thailand and Malaysia's western peninsula. The export of agarwood from the northwest of the map to the southeast of Malaysia to East Timor is "Xianzhou System".
Generally speaking, "Huian" is cool, sweet, transparent, fruity or floral, with a silky taste, generally insect leakage, and agarwood is fragile, mainly smoked, and carved materials are extremely rare.
The lasting appeal of "Sin Chew School" is mellow or mellow, sweet but not cold, peaceful and mature. It feels like a piece. Compared with "Huian" agarwood, "Xingzhou" agarwood has higher density, and both raw and cooked knots can be used as carving materials. According to the classification of origin, the true wax is the highest, followed by the city, and the bottom is Bohai mud. The fragrance of real wax can be divided into three categories, the green ocean is superior, the sanluan river is the second, and the area is weak. Luyang, Sanhuan and Boluo are all real wax figure gardens. True wax, Khmer today. Zhancheng, now Quang Nam Province in southern Vietnam. Boni, Borneo today. In these places, agarwood is still imported into Taiwan Province Province today. Khmer Bodhisattva Qinan is still loved by collectors, and Semonosa and Gonzami are still unforgettable.
What's more, it was produced by Boni and Sanfoqi (now Dagang), and it was named Fan Xiang and Daphne Handstring, and it was called Fanzhuan. Gas mines are fierce, and the price is like real wax. The green ocean is reduced by two-thirds, and the agarwood is half the city. Obviously, Ye Ting gave the Khmer agarwood the highest evaluation, or in the city.
Classification by origin: Aquilaria sinensis can be divided into Huian Aquilaria sinensis and Xingzhou Aquilaria sinensis according to origin. Huian, Vietnam was a distribution center of agarwood in ancient times, mainly produced in Vietnam. Now the agarwood produced in Vietnam, China, Cambodia, Laos and other places are collectively called Huian agarwood; In ancient times, Singapore was the distribution center of agarwood. Previously, Singapore was a state of federated malay states, commonly known as Sin Chew. The agarwood here is mainly produced in Malaysia and Indonesia. Now, the agarwood produced in southern Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Brunei are collectively called Sin Chew agarwood.
