    Patchouli, Nag Champa and Opium are my favourites.
    I burn incense every day, all day long.

    I've lived in some small towns over the years where nothing was really available of any quality.

    I took up the selling of incense to support my own habit. :)

    I'd place a wholesale order, and then resell it like other people sale Avon. I'd have 20 different kinds on hand at any given time with access to over 200 fragrances from around the world. Always sold Indian incence as a preference. I've found the America products to be mostly inferior charcoal sticks dipped in inferior grade oils. Most people can't tell the difference. There are good qualites of incence from Asia as well, some of it very expensive.

    Bad incense can give you a headache, mainly because the punk sticks are made from bamboo that is too green.

    Nag Champa is still the world favorite. It actually has over 40 ingrediants in it. A family secret of sorts. Lots of imitations out there too. You can get it in several forms. Powder, oil, soap.

    I keep a slightly opened package of Nag Champa in my vehicle to keep things smelling nice inside. You can do the same for clothing you have folded away in a drawer.

    You don't have to burn Nag Champa to enjoy it.

    I would definitely pay... But also, it depends how much you're talking.. I'd like a more happy face though, just personal preference.

    Sure,I love incenses. they are so useful. Once I bought some from a man who sweared they were hand made by some disciples of a guru who teached them the 'Yoga of Working'. hmmm... I guess he's Mister Natural. ---------------- Now playing: Grateful Dead - Truckin' via FoxyTunes

    I've been burning incense (and sage but I don't really consider that incense) for years. Even though I get really bad migraines, I've always found incense to be relaxing. I great way to just mellow out and watch the smoke rise. I don't burn it as much as I'd like since the little one arrived, but once he's bigger I'm sure I'll get back on track. Those burners are amazing. I would buy!

    wow first off let me say what a good topic this is, i burn incense 1 or 2 times a week to set my mood right with some green tea to great mixes to enjoy and enter into a tranquility state. as for making incense holders never made one before but now that you mentioned it i could use a really hipp lookin one with a peace sign on it or something sounds fun to make! lets bring incense back!! cause man, we all know how smooth it is, and you know what i fuckin like candles 2! hardcore gangsta ;)

    I always burn incence, when i was in high school Id have to be at the school before sun rise here in florida so the mosquitos would be out. So I would bring an incense with me every mourning, light it, and huddle around it with my friends while one of them braided my hair.

    I would, but I currently live with my parents, and my mother hates the smell of it.
