Publish Time: 2024-10-16
The unique fragrance of Natural Agarwood High-And Gift Box mainly comes from its complex chemical composition and long-term geological and biological effects.1. Formation of AgarwoodAgarwood is formed by a certain type of agarwood tree (such as white agarwood tree, agarwood tree, etc.) after being damaged by external factors (such as insect infestation, natural disasters, etc.), through long-term microbial action and resin secretion. This process usually takes decades or even hundreds of years.2. Alcoholization of the wood partAfter external damage, the self-healing mechanism of the agarwood tree is activated, and it begins to secrete resin to protect the wound. These resins gradually accumulate inside the trunk and mix with the wood part. Over time, the wood part gradually alcoholizes and hardens, forming the matrix of agarwood.3. Participation of microorganismsFungi and bacteria: During the formation of agarwood, a large number of fungi and bacteria gather at the wound. The activities of these microorganisms help decompose the wood part and release various chemicals in the process.Metabolites: Metabolites of fungi and bacteria, such as enzymes, acids and other organic compounds, further react with resins and wood parts to generate complex chemical components.4. Accumulation of chemical componentsThe main aroma components of agarwood are terpenoids, aromatic compounds and phenolic compounds. These components accumulate in resins and wood parts and are further transformed and enriched by the action of microorganisms. The main chemical components include:Agarol: It is one of the main aroma components in agarwood, with a unique woody aroma and floral notes.Agarone: It has a strong woody aroma and a light sweetness.Agaral: It gives agarwood a fresh herbal aroma.5. Natural oxidation and agingAfter agarwood is formed, it needs to undergo a long-term natural oxidation and aging process. During this process, the chemical composition inside the agarwood will continue to change, further enriching its fragrance. During the aging process, the aroma of agarwood will become softer, more complex and more lasting.6. Environmental factorsTemperature and humidity: Suitable temperature and humidity conditions contribute to the aging and fragrance development of agarwood. Too high or too low temperature and humidity may affect the quality of agarwood.Soil and climate: The soil type and climate conditions of the agarwood tree's growth environment also affect the quality and fragrance of agarwood. Agarwood produced in different regions may have different fragrance characteristics.The unique fragrance of Natural Agarwood High-And Gift Box is the result of the combined action of multiple factors: the self-healing mechanism of the agarwood tree, resin secretion, the participation of microorganisms, the accumulation of chemical components, the natural oxidation and aging process, and environmental factors. These complex biological and chemical reactions give each agarwood a unique fragrance characteristic, which is one of the reasons why agarwood is widely collected and used.
