Never ingest essential oils and remember to dilute them with a suitable carrier oil such as olive oil or coconut oil. This is due to the fact that organic and pure essential oils are highly concentrated liquids and direct use of essential oils on the skin can cause allergic reactions. Caution should be taken if you are a breastfeeding or pregnant mother. Keep out of reach of children.

Product Description & Production Process

Agarwood Merauke Oil is a premium essential oil extracted via steam distillation from the resin-enriched heartwood of Aquilaria malaccensis grown in Papua's tropical forests under sustainable agroforestry programs. Trees are manually inoculated when approximately 10 years old to stimulate natural resin formation in response to fungal infection (e.g. Fusarium, Phialophora). After a maturation period of 1.5–2 years, the resinous wood is harvested and distilled, producing an oil rich in aromatic sesquiterpenes and chromones with luxurious depth and aromatic complexity.

Chemical Composition & Therapeutic Potential

The oil contains over 70 bioactive compounds — mainly sesquiterpenes and chromone derivatives, including:

  • Agarospirol, jinkohol, α‑ & β‑agarofuran
  • Aquillochin (coumarinolignan), selinene, kusenol, dihydroagarofuran

Origin & Sustainability Practices

A. malaccensis is endemic to Southeast Asia and classified as vulnerable or critically endangered due to overharvesting and habitat loss. DDistillers engages in selective harvesting, replanting initiatives, and community-based cultivation to support both conservation and local economies. Resin only forms in response to natural stress or infection, emphasizing the oil’s rarity and ecological value.

Cultural & Historical Significance

Historically, agarwood was central to maritime trade hubs like the Sriwijaya Empire in Sumatra. Indigenous groups, such as the Batak of Porsea, transported gaharu via river routes to Middle Eastern markets. Known locally by names like Karas, Depu, Hau Halim, Kayu Alim, Kayu Kareh, it is globally recognized as Oud, Agarwood, Eaglewood, Aloeswood. Revered across Hindu, Buddhist, Islamic, and Christian traditions, agarwood has been used in spiritual rituals, perfumery, and traditional therapeutics.
