Agarwood is called as Woods of God. The scientific
name of Agarwood is Aquilaria and the scientific
name of Aquilaria is resinous heartwood. It is native
of South East Asia. Agarwood is the infected wood of
Aquilaria. It is a forest tree and reaches a height of 40
meters and 80 centimeters wide approximately.
These wild trees become infected by some molds or
parasitic fungi called Phialophora parasitica and begin
to produce Agarwood in heartwood due to unaffected
response to this attack. It is an odorless prior
infection. As the infection progresses, it gives dark
resin embedded in heartwood. This embedded wood
is valuable. It gives remarkable fragrance and thus
used in incense and perfumes. These aromatic
qualities are influenced by the species, geographic
location, trunk, branch, root origin, time taken since
infection and methods of harvesting and processing.
Approximately 10% of wild mature Aquilaria tree can
naturally produce resin.
