I just woke up and opened my computer to say good morning to all of my brothers and sisters this fine Tuesday.
I'm burning:
Kourindo - Hana Kourin
It's a perfumed sandalwood stick, and while I'm not crazy about sandalwood in my sticks recently, this one is perfumed, and you can barely make out the sandalwood past the perfume.

@Joe I just lit Balaji Kumudini (Water Lily), it is a new release by them. It is loud like most Indian incense, but this is a very well done white floral. It's like sitting next to a pond, it rained an hour ago and you are getting wiffs of Night Jasmine.
My day started with Baieido Koh Shi Boku.

I like Baieido, but I've never tried Balaji. Where does one buy it? I typically stick to Japanese incense. However, I'm always willing to try new materials.

@Joe You can order from aavyaa. They ship internationally. Indian incense is perfumed and 5-10x stronger than Japanese incense. From Balaji I recommend Kumudini (Water Lily), Chandan (Sandalwood, this is their most popul), Botanical (Floral). You can also lookup other brands like Orkay.

Smells so Oud
Prof Incense - Soil Ambon followed by Kangiiten - Dreams of African Sandalwood.
Well, Bakhoor can be made using, either post distilled or pre distilled oud sticks, cedarwood chips can be used too, I add some spices on mine too, benzoin etc. What else other ingredient can we add to make it more exotic?
