Agarwood/oud, a natural fragrance/oil/incense is produced in Cambodia. Someone asked a question about finding it a few weeks back, either on this site or that 'other' one.
Definitely a 'Cambodia-only' souvenir, if you can find it and/or afford it, as it is one of the few countries still producing it legally.
"First-grade agarwood is one of the most expensive natural raw materials in the world."
"In Cambodia, it is called "chann crassna". The fragrance from this wood is called "khloem chann" or "khloem chann crassna". "khloem" is fragrance, "chann crassna" is the tree species Aquilaria crassna in khmer language."
