Among agarwood from the »Xingzhou« (Singaporean) category, Borneo is considered one of the most premium producing regions. This vast island in Indonesia covers about three-quarters of Borneo, making it approximately 15 times larger than Taiwan, yet with only half the population. Borneo's rainforests are abundant, particularly renowned for agarwood. In recent years, due to extreme harvesting, the yield of agarwood has drastically decreased, making high-quality Borneo agarwood quite rare and its acquisition a matter of luck.
Borneo agarwood is characterized by its rich, fragrant aroma with a hint of coolness, often blended with notes of frankincense or fruity florals, offering a mellow and sweet profile. This makes it an ideal choice for consumers seeking premium agarwood.

Born in Hsinchu, Taiwan, in 1983, with a background in craft design. He has wandered the streets of Japan, experiencing how wooden art injects warm and profound vitality into ancient alleyways. These objects, like fragments of time, carrying traces of history and outlines of the future, seek a delicate balance between opposition and harmony, transforming into refined works that closely connect the vision of the new generation with the simplicity of the old era. Agarwood, once ground into powder for its fragrance, is solemnly placed in the most auspicious areas of homes in Japan, symbolizing vitality and light.
The agarwood originates from its production site, pure and flawless, untouched by artificial processes like boiling resin, drawing lines, or synthetic fragrances. It is presented in its most original form. Through ancient scent-extraction techniques, the outer layers of deadwood are meticulously peeled away by hand, revealing the true soul of the agarwood. This not only imbues it with eternal vitality but also allows tradition and modern craftsmanship to subtly intertwine at the fingertips, creating a feast for the eyes and senses. Its rich aroma is like solidified time, gently drawing together past memories and future aspirations, allowing them to meet and resonate within the fragrance, continuously extending, distant and profound.
