What is Kynam?

Kynam, also known as “kyara,” is a particularly rare and highly valued type of agarwood, which is the resinous heartwood produced by trees of the genus Aquilaria. This occurs when the trees are infected by a certain type of mold, which causes them to produce a dark, fragrant resin as a defensive mechanism. Kynam is known for its exceptional quality, rarity, and the depth of its fragrance, making it the most prized and expensive form of agarwood.
