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.
