The crème de la crème of ingredients. This is the top; it doesn’t get any better. Well, I guess there are different grades of this, but Kyara wood is the most expensive ingredient on planet Earth—more expensive than gold. A gallon of this stuff puts you over $5,000,000 USD.

Japanese Presentation, Japanese Meditation $1150 33ML Yes, I said that correctly. $34.85 an ML Japan 2000 Yasuyuki Shinohara 50 / 50 All day, everyday Notes: Kyara-grade agarwood, cedarwood, rose otto, patchouli, sandalwoodFragrance Quick Story
One of the cleanest woods I have ever smelled. It’s like “ambergris of the woods,” creating a mythical forest air that breathes pure enlightenment. This is what you want to be smelling while meditating; it opens the mind to endless wonders. KYARA is the most sought after wood in the world. I have seen videos of people who are paid to hunt this and bring it back to the richest of rich people. If you were ever lucky enough to find any, it would be sold in no time at market price, or you could go above market price, and you would likely still be able to sell it within months. The smell is transcendent. It’s a shame this can’t be given to everyone. This brings instant peace to me, the kind of peace that is so surreal even if I’m surrounded by chaos and negativity. This is an all-natural composition at its best. Think of putting this on like putting on an Enya playlist.Fragrance in my opinion compared to Perfume’s Notes
The patchouli comes off like a sour citrus, in a good way—just a bit sour and meditative, not hippyish at all. The rest of this is about relaxing into the perfume. Letting it calm your mind and emotions. Keeping you completely centered on what you are doing. You can barely tell this is oud. It is so pure, it’s like an ambergris effect but with oud. Like a magical mist of the best oud notes filling in your space. What’s weird is that no matter how much you apply, it’s meditative and never overpowering. It really settles my mind down and brings a calmness, just as soft music would do. Not kidding; this is the effect every time I have worn this. I have smelled Kyara oud twice; this was once. And it’s called a privilege among oud heads, something that is to be prized above money. The smell has been called life changing. Many die-hards are mad that Kyara would ever be put into perfume, but here we are. I think the patchouli is a little heavy-handed for how delicate this oil is. I would put in yuzu or something of the like, something that would dissipate and transition. The patchouli wears as long as the Kyara and, let's face it, you’re not dropping $1,000 to smell patchouli. That being said, if money were no object and I had $25K coming in a month, I would definitely pick up a bottle and wear this a lot. It’s a personal scent that puts me in the right place. As the sour note settles in, the rose otto opens up with light notes of cedar and santal. Other than that quick change, that is the fragrance. A linear bliss of Kyara that has so many nuances on a light level. Overall, this is the meditation magic that will change your mindset and surround yourself in peace.Perfumer's Notes:

I've just read the description, I want this
Hopefully you saw price. $35 an ML
@Therapeutic Fragrance its 1100ish for 33ml on luckyscent ???? ouch
Indeed. Seriously just for a few drops of pure Kyara oil starting price is $500 from reputable sellers.
Bitcoin going well, I think when it hits 9K i will pick this up today. Thank you!
I love living MGTOW
Get a sample first it won't run out. Again sample this one and make sure you like it. Kyara is very very subtle ingredient. LOL I can't tell if you're serious or joking but that is one heck of a blind buy that even I wouldn't do.
it's as expensive as a basic oud oil, still not going to sample it anytime soon.
I did spend 80$ today on 5×2.5ml samples, prin has made prin parfum samples available on his prissana site
Therapeutic Fragrance it's on the prissana site in the prin category
@Therapeutic Fragrance here : https://parfumprissana.com/collections/prin
TY
LOL I am so glad you commented here. I have all of the above in the cart and didn't even notice they were compositions I owned. That would have sucked. I thought they were all the new Prissana stuff.
Therapeutic Fragrance it's the prin stuff which is a relaunch of pryn, he can't use the same names for copyright reasons I guess
Your statement: "Keeping you completely centered to what you are doing" sold me completely, fully, absolutely. I was hoping to find another heavy-duty fragrance as an adjunct to focused chanting. Much appreciated.
If you look up Kyara it really has all to do with that. People value having this kind of experience over any form of money. It amazes me their passion for this level of wood.
JK from rising phoenix recently listed blue kyara 1g for around $4700.
I have messaged him about it. I only wish I could. The stuff looks so amazing. Thanks for bringing this up. Anyone who can afford it will surely have found treasure.
Haha!! I love Di Ser!!! I have all of them! Most of them samples. 😀
What do you think of Kyara? It took me a lot to really enjoy the nuances that this expensive oil has.
@Therapeutic Fragrance I haven't got to that one yet. I tried 2 so far, I have 6 more to go. 🙂
Can't wait to see them Daniel San!
IDi Ser Kyara is amazing. I had the honour of smelling kyara wood chips last week while in Japan at the Shoyeido store in Tokyo. The manager heated for me two middle grade and the highest grade kyara. I felt brand new after that; opened up the nose, lungs and brain. There's no oud like that. You're right, it's transcendental.
@Therapeutic Fragrance Never heard of him. I've just seen it, interesting.
He is top notch. Definitely expensive over others, but very good reputation he is one of the first guys I have followed. I still have to order from him, but I know a lot of people I personally trust, that have his stuff and stand by it.
@Therapeutic Fragrance Yeah, I've seen some reputable guys comment. I've unfollowed him though; no point in looking at his stuff and being unable to afford it. I need to put money into building my perfume house.
Absolutely love that plan, I can't wait.
@Therapeutic Fragrance ????
I've done 1 1/2 reviews of Di Ser so far.
I checked out one of them, will seek the other one out.
Definitely oud like I've never heard it described before. I know what you mean about not paying that money to smell patchouli. Btw, I actually knew a girl once named Kiara. Not spelled the same, but she certainly smelled good. Creepy fact. ????
LOL Kiara. This would be an oud I think you would like. But at the price I wouldn't seek it out only if you were around it.
You need to try Roi sans Equipage from Henry Jacques, it's amazing, but soooo expensive
@Therapeutic Fragrance It's mindblowing Brandon
I'm open to everything. Will see if I can get a sample from anywhere.
WOW! It looks like it's exclusive to Harrod's. Looks amazing.
The Enya of perfume. Lol. Sounds amazing. Thanks for writing out your notes in the box; I like to quickly scan it before watching.
Maybe one day I'll have an editor????
Therapeutic Fragrance ????????♀️
Yeah if another month goes by like the last one we are getting to this point, stay tuned. A lot more people noticing my stuff.
Nice review. Really enjoying your videos. Would be good if you could work on the echo issues you have though.
I am watching at 4K what resolution do you watch at. Really trying to get this fixed. Are you on headphones also?
I like to mix my samples of Kyara with Shiragoromo on my arm. Since I can't afford Kyara outright, I think of just getting Shiragoromo because the yuzu is like the real juice I buy at the grocery, and there is Kyara in it as well that comes in at the mid. It's a happier fragrance. I think the patchouli you don't like is something that bothers me too in this. (BTW, the "Kya" is pronounced like "ca" in "carrot") Prices are so relative. I mean women who make it in their careers can spend upwards of $11,000 to $25,000+ for a Hermes Birkin bag. A Chanel flap bag, an easy $6,000. Canvas tote bag from Louis Vuitton $1600. How much Kyara for that amount?
Love this comment. Yes buy the Kyara instead. I really wish I could of gotten some of JK's stuff that he had earlier in the year. I have never seen anything like it.
@Therapeutic Fragrance In my dreams, Brandon. BTW, I just contacted Di Ser to ask if Shiragoromo had Kyara in it or not. Sadly, it just has Agarwood/Jinko, well actually there are several types of Agarwood/Oud with Kyara being one type, Jinko, Sasora, Manaka being others according to the perfumer Yasuyuki Shinohara who wrote back almost immediately himself. I wrote to him in English and he wrote back in Japanese, lol. I can read it, but I can't write back in that formal business Japanese…so awkward.
Thanks so much for the information. Did you get a chance to get ahold of Keman from Di Ser?
Sadly no, by the time I looked into it, it was sold out but based on your review, I don't think it would be a top choice for me. I tried Hasunoito and didn't care for it.
