AnswerAgarwood is the most expensive, it comes from aquilaria trees.The tree usually becomes infected with mold and produces a resin that ranges from $5,000.00+ per pound.Ebody African Black.Brazilian Rosewood.The most expensive would be those not legally available anymore - i.e. Brazilian Rosewood.
