Natural Agarwood Cores From Vietnam
Natural agarwood cores are the densest resin-rich parts formed inside wild Aquilaria trees over many years. These raw agarwood materials are highly valued for their deep natural aroma, spiritual significance, and rarity. Unlike processed wood or extracted oil products, natural agarwood cores remain completely untouched and unrefined, preserving their original fragrance and character.
Common Types of Natural Agarwood
Speed Agarwood (Trầm Tốc)
A more common grade of natural agarwood with lighter resin concentration and visible striped grain patterns. Appreciated for its gentle aroma and natural beauty.
Ant Agarwood (Trầm Kiến)
Natural agarwood containing small holes created by forest ants. This type often develops a richer oil density with a deeper, sweeter fragrance highly valued by collectors.
Fossilized Agarwood (Trầm Rục)
Ancient agarwood formed over long periods in natural forests. The outer wood gradually decays while preserving a dense resinous core, resulting in a rare and highly aromatic material.
Sinking Agarwood (Trầm Chìm)
The rarest and most valuable type of natural agarwood. Due to its extremely high resin content, the wood can fully sink in water. Highly prized among agarwood collectors and incense enthusiasts worldwide.

Value & Authenticity
High-quality Cambodian agarwood — especially natural red Pursat agarwood — is sometimes called the “Red Gold” of the agarwood world due to its rarity and exceptional resin quality.
When choosing natural agarwood, buyers should be careful of:
- artificially oil-injected wood
- chemically treated materials
- boiled or heavily processed agarwood
Authentic natural agarwood usually reveals its fragrance gradually. The scent starts softly and develops deeper complexity over time, unlike artificial wood with harsh overpowering smells.
At Duy Hai Agarwood, we focus on authentic natural agarwood materials with original aroma, natural resin formation, and genuine craftsmanship from Southeast Asia.
