Any Incense Users Out There?

A few months ago I started burning incense again after not doing so for many years. Enjoying so far, with a few good and a few meh scents. Getting time to reorder so wondering if anyone has any suggestions of scents and manufacturers. Tried some from Satya and Hem and have preferred the more earthy scents like Dragons Blood and Patchouli.

hate the stuff. It always reminds me of Roman Catholic services. "Nice dress but I think your handbag is on fire"

With asthma, I cannot use candles or burn incense.

At grocery stores, walking through the heavily perfumed, clothes washing detergent aisle tightens my bronchial tubes. Feels like I'm choking.

It's hard to go wrong with the old standby: Nag Champa...particularly by Satya Sai Baba / Agarbatti. It lists the manufacturer as "Shrinivas Sugandhalaya.

Been meaning to get back to you, old age and all. I already had this by that manufacturer and like it. I also picked up something from the same manufacturer called Super Hit. It is a very pleasant scent similar to Nag Champa. Give it a try if you want.

@Mark013 I think the standard small box of nag champa I have, that was purchased about 20 years ago is still half full. 😂. I pretty much only use it when my house gets a random foul odor (like if I have to bomb for bugs or something). I feel like 25 yrs ago, I might have tried something from the same company, that maybe was in a green box...or perhaps brown. It's been a while, and those days are kinda hazy if ya know what I mean... generally, I don't do incense much, as me and clean air seem to get along best... and besides, my house is pretty sparsely decorated and all hardwoods, so no smell, good or bad seems to stick around very long. But...Super Hit is logged in the brain, and I'll be sure to sniff a box of it next time I'm in a headshop or see it somewhere!
