Incense of the Day

[Himanshu Sharma]

Dr. Incense Holy Lotus

This a staple for meditation. Relaxing, silky, a bit chalky, earthy scent. These old recipes are precious, indeed.

Kunmeido Asuka and Kyara Tenpyo

The Dynamic Duo of this house.
Both have a thick agarwood presence.

RPP - Laoshan Monkoh
Very lovely monkoh experience... very relaxing.
but the problem is... keeping myself from burning more of this precious incense. I can't get enough of this!

KZ Tarakan and Dr. Incense Tarakan

Kz’s is smoother and more perfumey,
but both are quite similar
and equally as good.

7 orchard from ASO. Though it has rugged look and difficult to keep burning, I love this incense very much. Poetry in a stick. Art is not about technical perfection... But still, I wonder how would it be like if Jawed refines this incense a bit more.

Yamadamatsu Kyara Firebird Red Label
newer batch

Interesting recipe, overall a nice stick,
but for my taste...a little overdone
too many facets that create a bit of disharmony.
Not a stick for contemplation or meditation IMO.

Shoyeido Myo-Ho

Top notes that made my mind soar
so I needed to light a stick of Baieido
Koshiboku to bring me back down,
the end result was a comforting effect.

Floating mountains from ASO
Not as much experience with sticks but this one has ruined me ! Nothing else I’ve ever tried compares to these ! Off the charts this one!!

I'm heating a small piece of this on the subitism burner as we speak! Really wish I could pick up more of this one.

 

[Oudamberlove]

Kunmeido Kyara Tenpyo

The agarwood note is quite evident during this burn,
no short-cuts with this stick

 

[Oudamberlove]

Baieido Koshiboku

I never get tired of this stick.

I have quite a few bakhoor variations from several vendors in Dubai.

Some of these are scents you just want to be able to capture in a bottle and use as an oil. I'll see if I can post some pics of them. Extremely fancy boxes they are in. Can't remember the names unfortunately. Will check the boxes see if the name is written.

I tend to smoke the whole house with bakhoor every Friday, keep it smelling exquisite! Generally on a coal burner as its better for larger areas.

Anyone recommend any subitism heater for more focused heating for agarwood? I had one from a friend of Adam from Feel Oud, but it fell apart.

Started this morning off with Classic Nha Trang (real Nha Trang) incense.

Absolutely love it. No wonder Nha Trang profile is so sought after.
