If I opened the window very much at all during the Seattle winter, not only would a lot of cold air come in, but so would a lot of rain and damp...lol...

I just got a lovely custom incense made at a Ren Faire in San Francisco. I was down for a visit. The lovely woman chatted with me about what scents I like and then crafted it entirely from herbs, and it doesn't need charcoal to burn either! It's very earthy, with hints of ginger and cloves.

I really love the Incense, it gives me that feel good feeling, but I really can't take too much of the smoke. The smoke starts to irritate my eyes and throat after a while. May be I should give these sprays a try, never used one.

I loving using incense too, it seems to last a lot longer than room spray. But, like someone earlier said, it does seem to bother people. Growing up, my parents always thought I was smoking pot, when all I was doing was burning incense! lol I did find an in between though... Wax tarts! Has anyone tried these? You can usually find them at any candle stores, or online. A lot of people make them now, too. They are nice, but they only really smell at the beginning. After you burn them a couple of times, they seem to lose their fragrance. frown But it something different to try.

Incense makes me sneeze and leaves a really musty smell in the room once it has finished burning. I like the wax tarts, and I also like scented oil candles. You can get them with varying oil levels so that they either melt completely (like the tarts) or stay in candle form.

ya I agree that most incense does make you sneeze and stinks up the place....but thats with synthetic incense.
Natural incense is so much different than the cheap stuff. I love the fact that your making a connection with nature and it healing aromas.
Of course if your allergic to to say pine well than it will bother you.

peace

P.S what are wax tarts sounds interesting

I also use essential oil in a spray bottle to mist in the bathroom and meditation roomand even as a body mist. As a body mist try essential oil of clary sage with a touch of patchouly and vetyver.
You will have heads turning!Very uplifting.
For bathroom I use lemon and in wonter eucalyptus. And calming orange in the meditation room.

I like Nag Champa but the smoke does get to be a little too much. I now use those reed diffusers but I would love to learn to make my oil scents to put in the bottle. I do kind of worry about what is in that stuff.
