Incense Bundle Chandra Devi Tibetan Natural Incense Sticks Combination Pack - Fairtrade Incense from Tibet (6 Packs)

I've recently come back from Tibetan China and I couldn't carry enough incense home with me. I'm glad to find the real thing here for a decent price. Even in the monastic towns far north, the Tibetan incense is largely coming from Nepal. Thanks for getting it stateside.

The scent is mostly the same amongst the variety. It is kind of stale. Trying to separate them from the bundle is a little difficult. They will often break even when carefully placing in loose sand.

Got these guys in today and so far I am grateful of all that I received. These are not on the stick that most other western incense are. These have a great scent but that is subjective (subject to the person smelling them), therefore it might be best to order a small quantity first to see if you like them. As for me, I am an Air and Earth spirit and I enjoy the smell of these incense. As far as longevity goes, that is also subjective to how you use them. Many have asked how to burn them or what to hold them in. If you are into incense then I have to assume you are creative so be that, creative. There are some incense holders that have a larger hole for holding incense that are without the stick. If you don’t have one then get a clothes pin or a small cup with some sand. Overall I recommend these highly.

Decades ago, I bought some Tibetan incense that were amazing in scent and production. They were fine grained, and seemed very full of the medicinal herbs. I have never been as satisfied as I was by those, and I have never found them again. Now, these incense are good. The smell good, like other affordable Tibetan incense I have purchased. These have coarser texture herbs, and smell more like what I believe to be the less expensive, woodier, filler herbs, rather than something sweeter or... maybe sticks vs leaves?? It makes differences between the varieties in the pack, more subtle and less distinguishable. That said, they’re still good, and I am still pleased to have them, they simply seem less refined than some I have previously experienced.

These are fantastically scented incense sticks! They light and burn easily, but they also break easily so if you have clumpy man hands, go easy on handling them!I'd recommend filling a wide mouth jar with salt or light sand and gently pushing an incense stick down until it feels like it'll stand on its own. It'll be much safer to light this way. These don't have sticks in them so they don't fit into traditional tiny holed incense burners.The scents are earthy and mild... very relaxing. Not perfumy and overpowering.They come wrapped with string. Easiest is to unwrap them most of the way so you can slide a stick out more easily. I'd also suggest storing them in a little cigar or shoe box so they don't get bumped and broken. If they break, they still burn! Just for a shorter time.

I like Tibetan incense and these smell cheap to me. They smell like they have a lot of filler in them. The Lord Buddha was the most pleasing scent, but it took 2 sticks to equal the strength of other Tibetan incense.I would recommend Potala incense from Dharma Objects. The 10” sticks last 2 hours and smell amazing! It has top notes of sandlewood that come though clearly with the earthy tones of traditional Tibetan incense. The 5 pack of Himalayan incense sold by Juccini is terrific! It has lush earthy tones with over 30 ingredients. It’s much better than this incense.If you want the best Tibetan incense produced from the actual monasteries and villages in Tibet and Nepal check outIncense-Traditions.ca. Mind Roling incense by the Mind Roling Monastery is heavenly.

discovered Tibetan incense at a cool shop in Sedona but was paying $7 - $20 per box. this is the real deal and even more authentic in some ways since it’s made in Nepal and not India. there’s only kind in the bundle we didn’t like much - the “natural herbal” was a bit too flower-y. the Snowlion, Amber and Musk and Lord Buddha are our favorites - a bit more earthy and musky with sweet top notes reminiscent of throwing fragrant wood on a campfire. definitely will be buying more.

I don’t know what’s happened to the overall quality of Tibetan incense and this is another poor example. I opened all of them for comparison. None smell great, Lord Buddha smells like bubblegum ! They don’t burn long at all. I’m packing them all back in the box and returning
