I know almost everybody here uses incense... Most of the incense I have come across smells like crap and basically makes the room smell like smoke. So what are some good brands or Internet sources? At my local store, they have a huge variety but only a few smell good. Their jasmine smells AMAZING so I just buy bulk, but I want other good brands and scents.

I use nag champa oil. It is so much better than incense because there is very very little smoke. I love candles, so i would rather do it that was anyways.
*I don't just use nag champa. There are alot of different oils out there that are pretty good, so there is no reason to just stick with one imo.

Gonesh incense - almost smoke free, and long lasting fragarence. [image] [/image]
- but the real fun is in experimenting - i have found any indian (from India) type is always good. Super Hit is pretty releiable. Nag Champa always satisfies. but the Indian bodega is always the best way to find new brands,20 stiks for $1.

I just walked in the door five minutes ago w/ a new jumbo box of nag champa.
I've burned this exclusively since I was like, 12.
Best Incense Ever.
Except lately they've been putting a trial box of some other stuff IN the nag champa box. And they're cutting down on my nag champa space.
The others stuff is okay, but I want my nag champa!

No, the trial box is "Aastha"
Made by the same people as Nag Champa. Shrinivas Sugandhalaya.

Nag Champa is good, but I don't understand why so many stoners rave about it so much. Its just not that special.
I like a variety of incenses. Change it up, y'know. One of my favorites is Gonesh #8. That shit smells way better then Nag Champa IMO!

The trial box I've gotten in big super hit boxes, is the diggity dank! Super hit is a wonderful aroma though. I used to buy powdered incense to put on top of burning charcoals, you can find some really good kinds, and they're damn pungent.
There are so many different kinds of yummy incense, just gotta hit up the right shops.

I love Nag Champa but lately have been having a hard time finding the exact stuff I like. At first it was the blue box of some shit I can't spell or pronounce. Then it had samples of something that smelled like pine tree mixed with weed and the usual stuff... it was amazing. The Aastha or whatever it was came in a blue box and wasn't bad but almost seemed too strong... maybe it was just the small room. I just wish I could find out what those samples where, they where light brown wood with brown insence covering. The other ones I buy are all dark brown wood with light covering and they smell too sweet or something.
last time I just saw some names like Celestial, Sunrise, and Midnight... which aren't as good. Guess I need to find someplace else to buy that stuff.
