Shoyeido Plum Incense, 150 Pieces

内容量が本数で記載されていたので、勘違いした私のミスですが、驚くほど高値で購入してしまいました…

Een mooie, subtiele geur. Rustige brandduur dat de geur tot zijn recht laat komen en de ervaring versterkt.

These are my very favorite incense! I researched extensively before choosing Japanese incense, because I was craving a nice new fragrance in my home, not quite as sweet as candles or wax, but still something pleasant. From working in a shop, I already know I'm not as big a fan of most common scents of Indian incense, which are sometimes cloying, smoky, make my nose itch, or feel like they stick in the back of my throat, depending on the variety. I learned from similar reviews that Japanese incense are coreless, having no wooden stick in the center, so they burn much cleaner with less smoke, and the fragrance is much lighter as a result. Being coreless also means that these sticks are very thin. They are thicker than uncooked spaghetti noodles but a little bit thinner than a match stick, so it may also be important for you to search for the right kind of burner that supports incense of this size if you don't already have one. I burn them all throughout my house with a variety of burners I've purchased from Amazon that all hold the incense upright. That has given me the best results. It is no problem if the incense slant a little. These sticks are short enough that I never have an issue with ash falling out of smaller bowls. I also believe Shoyeido makes a burner specifically for their own incense. Just note that they do burn all the way down to the bottom, so depending on the burner, there may be times when you have difficulty removing the stub. I can usually pinch it out with my fingers or tweezers or tap it out over the trash can, or if they're really stuck, rinse with warm water. When I tried these, I was very impressed. I'm not sure what a plum blossom is supposed to smell like, but these incense have the most pleasantly sweet fragrance, not overly sweet. The operative word is sweet though, so if you don't like sweet incense, try something else. These are like the dessert of incense, so yummy. It's not perfumey or even flowery. It's difficult to describe smells, but I'll just say I haven't had anyone in my home who didn't request the product information so they could order themselves a box. This incense is 100% worth a try! If you don't like it, give it to a friend. It will make their day. These come in a beautiful box with a large supply of sticks. I gather from reviews that they are a bit shorter than other types of incense or even other varieties of Shoyeido (I did notice my Autumn Leaves are a lot longer), but they burn really slowly anyway, lasting you a long time. If you're looking for an incense that is sweet and light, please try these.

Som en självutnämnd ambassadör för folk som inte är imponerade av rökelse, kommer jag att kapitulera, och rekommendera denna doft; dess profil är stark men inte alls överväldigande. Pinnarna brinner i kanske ungefärlig 20 minuter.

El olor es muy sutil y relajante, es como si no hubiera incienso encendido, pero sí. Me gusta mucho, feliz. Lo compré en Amazon, vendido por zen minded, el paquete de 150 varillas por 15,75€ con envío gratuito. Tardó casi 2 semanas en llegar, pero no había prisa.

The item received was in well packaged. The incense smells nicely. My daughter and I really like it. It is highly recommended.
