So, a year ago one of my quirky/hippy friends gave all of her friends a packet of incense for chirstmas. I thought I woudl never use these crappy things and they've been sitting in my closet ever since last week - when I decided to clean my closet out. I decided that I might as well use them, and now I can't get enough!!! :D They're eucalyptus in scent, and it just makes my room smell so good :D

I've decided that I'm going to buy some more - so where do you buy them, are there any good brands (?), and what are some good scents?

I like the smell of it - and I also have a small eucalyptus tree. I mom's always taking cuttings for it and hanging it in our house, so I guess that's why I like it. If anything, Juniper shrubs small like cat piss/ammonia.

All incense smells the same to me when it's burning. The sticks sometimes smell different from one another, but once you fire them up there doesn't seem to be much of a difference.

That is the MOST HORRID SMELLING CRAP of all time.
GAWD , it is the stink of all stinks. Combined with stinky feet and it's enough to gag a maggot.

For REAL incense, get to a Japanese / Buddhist store and get some of the stuff they burn in the temples. Sandlewood and others made from REAL aromatic oils and with a binder that isn't 75% organic waste products.
That is an olefactory joy fest.

I burn incense. But not the aroma smelly ones. I burn "real" incense, the ones you get when you go to a Buddhist Temple. I do it out of respect for my grandparents who have gone to a better place...
