Oud Academia has powerful branding potential as the educational and research arm of agarwood ecosystem. Here’s how we can define it clearly and position it as a center of excellence for agarwood science, artistry, and enterprise under your Crown Agroforestry Group umbrella.
Crown Institute for Agarwood Science, Art, and Sustainable Enterprise (CI-ASASE)
Born from the rare fragrance of Aquilaria malaccensis, Oud Academia™ stands as the first integrated center dedicated to the education, research, and craftsmanship of agarwood and perfumery arts in the Philippines and ASEAN.
At Oud Academia, science and artistry converge. From the propagation of agarwood trees and sustainable inoculation protocols to the refinement of oils through Supercritical CO₂ Extraction (SFE) and Reduced-Energy Hydrodistillation (REHD), every program nurtures mastery rooted in innovation, sustainability, and cultural heritage.
Here, knowledge is distilled like the wood itself—slowly, purely, and with purpose. Learners don’t just study—they immerse themselves in the world of oud, crafting perfumes, incense, candles, wines, soaps, and artisanal creations that embody both tradition and modernity.
Through partnerships with Crown Agroforestry Group Inc. (CAGI) and academic collaborators like Cavite State University (CvSU) Region 4A, Iloilo Science and Technology University (ISAT-U) Region 6 and De La Salle University (DLSU) Region NCR, Oud Academia transforms local expertise into global excellence. It trains the next generation of Agarwood scientists, distillers, artisans, and entrepreneurs, equipping them with the skills to lead in the sustainable luxury and wellness industries.
Oud Academia is not merely a school—it is a movement of knowledge, craftsmanship, and stewardship. A place where every lesson carries the scent of heritage, and every graduate becomes a guardian of nature’s most precious fragrance.
