How to identify good incense:
- Look for a solid stick of pure rolled plant material. Avoid incense that is rolled onto a bamboo core, which is usually coated with an un-aromatic filler and then 'dipped' in perfume.
- Ask for the ingredient list. The best incense is composed of pure wood and herbs. Whereas most incense on the market is dipped in synthetic fragrance and will not deliver the therapeutic benefits it's designed for.
- Price. If someone is pedaling sandalwood or other incense cheaply it’s probably too good to be true and you are buying a counterfeit product.
- White smoke. Pure incense burns with a whiter smoke or an elegant 'cloud' as the ancients used to call it.
