White Stone: Borneo Kynam

Distilled under the mastery of my own kyara Sifu, using an extraordinary wild Borneo harvest flown in specifically to create this peerless brew, Borneo Kynam, imprints itself onto your olfactory memory forever.

And it’s this peerless oud that’s the soul of White Stone. 

In case you didn’t know, it’s far easier to find Vietnamese kinam than Brunei or Borneo kinam. And when you inhale the crème de la crème of Borneo oud, you embark on an olfactory journey like no other.

White Stone opens with the crisp, herbal clarity of melissa and lavender, underscored by the bold spice of cardamom. A hint of raspberry adds a subtle sweetness, cutting through the sharpness with a soft, fruity edge. Cedarwood grounds the opening, all while Borneo Kynam does its thing…

The heart is where the fragrance takes shape. Saffron-draped rose petals meld with the intoxicating depth of jasmine and orange flower. Cinnamon warms the blend, its heat weaving through the floral complexity. The interplay of spice and bloom creates a luxurious, full-bodied scent, as Borneo Kynam infiltrates every facet. 

As it settles, the base unfolds with remarkable depth. Cocoa lends a powdery, bitter edge, enhancing the complexity of an oud duo to accompany the BK – Maroke and Sumatran, each known for their distinct smokiness and rugged refinement. Hojari frankincense drifts through, adding a sacred, resinous quality. Finally, our prized SQ ambergris ties everything together, giving the composition an ethereal lift, a weightless, salty-sweet depth that lingers long after the scent has settled.

White Stone gives you oud incense, rich florals, and rare spices in perfect synergy – with a kynamic core that puts it in a league of its own.
