Agarwood essential oil, also known as oud oil, is one of the world's most precious natural oils. Valued for its rich aroma and traditional wellness uses, agarwood oil is commonly used for aromatherapy, natural perfumery, meditation, relaxation, and skincare.
Because pure agarwood oil is highly concentrated, only a small amount is needed for each use. In most cases, 1–3 drops are sufficient.
At Duy Hai Agarwood, we carefully select and produce natural agarwood oil using authentic resin-rich agarwood materials from Vietnam and Southeast Asia.

sweet almond oil
Mix 1–2 drops of agarwood oil with one teaspoon of carrier oil before application.

The deep aroma helps create a calm and focused environment.
Some users apply a small amount to the temples or forehead area before meditation as part of their personal wellness routine.

Common Uses
Many people blend agarwood oil into:
-
facial creams

A typical mixture is 2–3 drops of agarwood oil added to approximately 30ml of cream or carrier oil.
This can be used as part of a moisturizing and nighttime skincare routine.
5. Traditional Use For Insect Bites
At Duy Hai Agarwood, we also traditionally use diluted agarwood oil externally on minor insect bites such as:

ant bites

mosquito bites

bee stings
When applied to non-open skin, many people find that diluted agarwood oil helps soothe the affected area and reduce temporary discomfort or swelling.

Avoid use on sensitive or irritated skin.
