Shoyeido - Moss Garden. Something about it just feels like the perfect incense for me. It's not as "campfire-y" as Autumn Leaves, and has a sweet almost peach-like scent to it with a hint of smoky deep campfire smell.

I tell you my all time favorite is galbanum.

Just some of the best raw ingredients I’ve ever had. I need to order some more now that I think about it

Koyasan Daishido Reiko in the blue box

Goloka organica frangipani and gurugees pakeezah.

I don't think I will ever have a all time favorite but at the moment I'm very in love with
Goloka (premium) Patchouli, as well as with Viayshree's Nag Champa and Nag Meditation.
Oh, and Tree of Life by Fleur De Vie.

The incense brand I'm recently nuts for is Fiore d'Oriente (from Italy - produced by Natural Incense Company - they sell also under their own brand/name, seemingly same products but less expensive.)

If you ask me about loose incense / aromatics... I wouldn't want to live without Labdanum, Indian Amber or Mexican Black Copal.

How do they source the frankincense, since the frankincense trees are mainly located in Somalia and the Arabian peninsula?

Floré

Great pick, great burn, nice soapstone holder.

I have mixed feelings about this brand. The scents are 10/10!!! But they come in these little pellets which seem overpriced imho.

Some people complain they don't stay lit, but I've NEVER had that problem with a torch lighter.

All in all, I wish the pellets lasted longer and didn't cost so much, but they smell great!

Thanks for sharing! I've seen those before and often wondered what they smelled like

These are really nice, if a bit crumbly! My favorite is the piñon

this photo is magic. the smoke curls are so beautiful.

Ok so I work in a department store so I got most of these as freebies or sample size but my favorites are: Voluspa: French Cade lavender and Prosecco Bellini. Nest fragrance: Moroccan amber, rose noir and oud, velvet pear, blue garden, and holiday. Diptyque: figuier and feu de bois. Jo Malone: bluebells. Tom Ford: Tobacco vanilla. Le labo: calone and santal. The white company: orange rind and seychelles. Malin and goetz: dark rum.

Diptyque, but they're pricey.

It's got a very high concentration of kyara/oud wood. I bought a sampler set (life altering...with a constrained budget). But Shoyeido's more sanely priced incense is also great.

Diptyque over Jo Malone over Le Labo, in that order.

All of these are pricey but Diptyque is absolutely worth it.

Experiencing Shoyeido's "Infinity" & "Translucent Path" incenses was - quite honestly - a highlight of my life.

Seeing my kids being born was cool, too.

But that incense. My god.

I’ve really enjoyed Norden’s Ojai incense lately. Frankincense, cypress, patchouli, and palo santo. Long burn time, good quality scent.

I’m sure there are probably better candles out there, but I keep coming back to PF Candle Co. I’ve had a number of them over the years, and they’ve all been wonderful. Good throw, cute jar, and for $20 or so, not too big of a splurge. Tobacco and Teakwood or Amber and Moss have been the standouts for me.

Nice collection, nice censer!

Nice little collection!

Nice. I used to burn a lot of Prinknash back in the day (Basilica was my favourite). Try some of the other abbey incenses if you don't already know them, like the ones from Alton Abbey.

By the way, Prinknash Basilica is an attempt to recreate Ketoret from Exodus. 

Heck yeah

Highly recommend Heeley's Eau Sacrée, as well!

Will try them out. Personally, the ultimate temple/incense scent is Memo Tiger's Nest. I wear it on sacred days or when I perform religious rituals.

i am always looking to smell holy. thanks for the recommendation.

Where does this fall on the scale of 0 to Avignon?

I HIGHLY recommend you and u/olivedate look into the indie houses BPAL, Solstice Scents, and Hexennacht. The absolute best church incense scents out there imo.

Matiere Premiere Ensens Suave. A beautiful lux creamy vanilla incense. Smooth and modern, as opposed to an old drcrepit church pew.

And I would be remiss if I didn't mentioned Guerlain Shalimar.

Anything from the comme des garcon incense collection is good

Search the sub, we have a lot of love for incense and witchy vibes around here. 🌺

Arquiste Indigo Smoke

These are my favorites, though I can't wear anything super intense since it ends up becoming overpowering in hot weather.
