That sounds really good. Now I’m gonna have to make one. I made meat sauce yesterday. Need some ricotta, some more fresh mozzarella and Italian sausage. You should make a pan too. It freezes real nice for easy meals later.yeah, it sounded good when you mentioned it so why not...

I wish my pillow was made out of lasagna.
Hope not before the end of the game. I’m sure they will have it on at the restaurant
I make a huge pan of lasagna and store it in a vacuum sealer bag...I learned the hard way, freeze the lasagna before you vacuum seal it...if you don't the lasagna will smush into a thick pancake...
the deli I mentioned has a meat room that has lamb burgers with feta cheese...damn that stuff is good...they have a serious home made frozen take out meals...always mobbed but Dutch clears my path when we go in...he's never bitten a person he wasn't told to hurt...he was quite good at slamming a person to the ground...

An Olfactory Odyssey: Unveiling Oud in Perfumery and Scented Candles
The fragrance world is filled with aromas that tantalize our senses, transporting us to different realms, cultures, and memories. One such enigmatic scent, hailed as "liquid gold" in the fragrance industry, is Oud. Derived from the heartwood of the Agarwood tree, this precious commodity has an allure that is captivating the world of perfumery and scented candles. But, what exactly is Oud and what does it smell like?
A Brief History of Oud
Oud has an illustrious history that dates back to ancient times:
- Traced back to the third millennium BC in India, the use of Oud was documented in ancient Hindu scriptures, the Vedas.
- In the Middle East, Oud is considered as sacred and is an integral part of religious and cultural ceremonies.
- The Old Testament and Buddhist scriptures also reference Oud, testifying to its long-standing historical significance.
- Fast forward to the 21st century, the "black gold" of perfumery is coveted by niche and luxury perfume houses alike, enchanting scent enthusiasts worldwide.
The Agarwood tree, native to Southeast Asia, secretes a resin when infected with a particular mold, and this resin-embedded heartwood is where Oud is derived. The rarity and labor-intensive extraction process contribute to its high value. However, its mesmerizing scent is what truly sets Oud apart.
Oud: A Symphony of Scents
Defining the smell of Oud can be as complex as its origins. The aroma varies, with the quality of Oud, the tree's geographical location, and the extraction method all playing a part. However, there are certain commonalities:
- Oud typically exudes a warm, woody scent that is simultaneously sweet and smoky. There's an inherent depth and richness to its fragrance that makes it unmistakably unique.
- It's often described as having balsamic notes, with a hint of damp, fermented wood that can evoke images of a deep, old forest.
- High-quality Oud can carry undertones of dried fruits, leather, spices, and even honey.
Today, Oud has secured a prominent place in the aromatic profiles of many perfumes and scented candles:
- In perfumery, Oud serves as an excellent base note due to its long-lasting nature. Its complex aroma adds depth and a distinct character to perfumes.
- Paired with floral or spicy notes, Oud’s dark, resinous scent provides a stunning contrast that creates an unforgettable olfactory experience.
- In scented candles, Oud contributes to a rich, sophisticated ambiance. When combined with lighter, sweeter notes, Oud-infused candles can offer a balanced, comforting scent, perfect for relaxation or meditation.
In Conclusion: What is Oud and What Does it Smell Like?
In essence, Oud is a unique olfactory tapestry woven from the heartwood of the Agarwood tree. Its scent is as captivating as its history is rich - a deep, luxurious aroma that speaks volumes of warm wood, smoky resins, and an intriguing mix of sweetness and spice.
In the realm of perfumery and scented candles, Oud brings an unparalleled depth and sophistication, defining opulence with every note. As such, it holds the power to transform a fragrance, elevating it into an aromatic journey that transcends ordinary scent experiences.
So, the next time you smell a fragrance or light a scented candle, remember the extraordinary journey of Oud - from the heart of the Agarwood tree to the heart of your senses.
