The ridiculously low price might not indicate it, but Satkara, is a high-grade Artisanal Oud distilled in 2021 from wood sourced in the jungles of Sylhet. This luxurious oil boasts a unique blend of scents and is under-priced given that is falls under that rare, almost unicorn-like conjunction of events where a relatively large batch of superb incense-grade was available and subsequently produced a high-yield of artisan-crafted Oud.
Satkara opens with a tantalizing blend of smooth high-quality Swiss dark chocolate, zesty Shatkora Sylheti citrus fruit used for cooking, and an umami gourmand note. The opening scent is complex and sophisticated, making a lasting impression.
As the Oud evolves after around 5 to 10 minutes, Satkara's heart notes emerge. The rich and aromatic scent of coffee blends seamlessly with the plain chocolate notes, creating a deep and intoxicating fragrance. After 30 minutes, Satkara's base notes come to the forefront. The scent of antique wood is warm and comforting, while the leather note adds a touch of sophistication and elegance to the fragrance.
Satkara's benefits and uses are numerous, making it a must-have for any fragrance or aromatherapy enthusiast. Its long-lasting and distinct fragrance can be worn as a signature scent or on special occasions. The calming properties of the oil make it an excellent choice for aromatherapy, reducing stress and anxiety. Satkara is truly a remarkable artisanal Oud that exudes luxury and elegance in every drop.

At Kinana, artisanal fragrance means perfumery made by hand, in small batches, by makers who answer to their materials rather than to a production schedule. Where an industrial scent is engineered for consistency and scale — built to smell identical across millions of bottles, to a tightly controlled cost, favouring synthetic bases and standardised accords — an artisanal one is composed with care around genuine naturals and well-chosen isolates, accepting the small variations that come with real ingredients rather than smoothing them away. It favours quality and provenance over yield: real oud rather than an oud-like accord, materials chosen for their character, and compositions given time to rest and mature. Our purpose at Kinana is to bring that craft within reach — fragrance with depth and individuality, revealing itself gradually on the skin and carrying the character of what it was made from, rather than a uniform impression produced at scale.
