I'm obsessed with those thick and very dense looking incense sticks that burn for hours !
but are they any good ? for sure i'll order some in the next future as they look really banging !!
j'ai vu ça dans une vidéo YT il y a quelques jours et ça m'a semblé une bonne idée: vous faites juste revenir les pâtes sèches dans une poële sans rien, sans matières grasse et ceci quelques minutes, puis les cuire normalement.
Il parait que c'est meilleur mais j'ai jamais essayé !
I"m currently revisiting samples of the french house Binet-Papillon and the reviews I wrote a while back praised this house so much, and I know now why : those scents are simply exceptionnal !
On 13 tested I only disliked 3 ! and all the others are at minimum amazing (and 2 sublime)
I'm at a point where it's hard for me to be impressed, but this house impresses me again and again
you can get a discovery set of 12x2ml samples at only 48€ ($56) which is quite low in the niche world I think
let me know if you're aware of this house !

I just had this idea (because of "Papiers d'Arménie")
why won't I spray some perfume on some absorbing paper and then burn it ?
it should give interesting results no ?
anybody did this already ?
Anybody heard about Gokula ? (not the same as "Goloka" incenses)
I ordered a bunch of samplers form their website (you basically get 1 stick of all their offering) and I tested 5 so far :
3 are bangers, whiles the other 2 are a bit redundant to my incense taste but they're good, they're not bad at all
my favourite must be Agarwood And Vanilla, it's a very subtle scent but really refined. It perfumed the whole appartment with a very nice smell
what i enjoy about those scents is that they're not smoky *at all*
It's legit made sticks (with bamboo core), hand rolled and all and they look really "authentic".
but the smell is all that matters, right ?
I really enjoy burning these (I burn 1 new stick each day :) and they added a few gift sticks in my order
so if you like indian incense, I think this my be worthwhile of your time
