Agarwood is not ordinary wood. It is a solid mixture formed by aromatic resin secreted from Aquilaria trees of the Thymelaeaceae family after being struck by lightning, infested by insects or wounded artificially, combined with wood tissues through years of aging. Only specific tree species can produce fragrance under particular conditions. Natural agarwood formation takes years or even decades, boasting rich and long-lasting aroma.
 
Listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, agarwood is a precious traditional Chinese medicinal material and a core symbol of oriental incense culture. Xianmu only provides high-quality cultivated agarwood and rejects wild resources. With scientific cultivation and standardized agarwood-inducing techniques, we enable more people to access natural, safe and sustainable agarwood, while protecting the ecological balance of wild Aquilaria trees.

 

 

Agarwood is the only precious medicinal herb that can unblock the Triple Energizer, and also a top-grade natural aromatherapy treasure in the East. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is warm in nature and pungent in flavor. It promotes qi movement to relieve pain, warms the middle energizer to stop vomiting, and guides qi to ease asthma. It also invigorates the spleen, calms the mind, dredges the meridians and harmonizes the five zang-organs.
 
Modern scientific research proves that chromones and sesquiterpenes contained in agarwood can gently act on the nervous system, quickly relieve anxiety and tension, improve sleep quality, soothe emotions and boost concentration.
