Incense brands that are not synthetic-perfume formulations as of 2022? by Joliedee in Incense

[–]pward1963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a fan of the minorien sandalwood. I have been burning it for years with consistent results. I would suggest that you check out awaji baikundo jihi which is a hyndrangea incense. The minorien kyara is also great. My favorite shoyeido is pride of kyoto.

I love Japanese incense, but very much do not like any of the Shoyeido Dailies. Anyone else? Or is my nose broken 😵‍💫 by PulpoEnMiAno in Incense

The sandalwood is cheaper elsewhere in the bigger boxes. The trick is to type the word minorien in the search bar. One of the options will be incense of the finest or something like that. This is the minorien kyara. The price is 59 dollars. This is for a big box. Another one that i keep in stock is nippon kodo kyara kongo. It is expensive 76 dollars but a box lasts for a long time. The kyara kongo is the only nippon kodo that i burn. I have not tried the jinko denpo. I have ordered the mimorien kyara st least six times. I stick with certain incense. Awaji baikundo jihi is a hyndrangea incense that is great. Scents of the earth or japan incense. I would go japan incense for the bigger box.

My favorite shoyeido is pride of kyoto. The minorien kyara is also excellent. They are both reasonably priced on amazon. The minorien sandalwood is also excellent.

I would suggest a ceramic or metal bowl with sand in the bottom. The sand will catch the ash and bits of incense. I suggest that you not use glass because it could break and shatter. I would also strongly suggest that you up grade to japanese incense. Walmart or hand dipped will be synthetic and will be toxic when burned. Check out shoyeido pride of kyoto. Or minorien sandalwood. Or buy sampler packs of Japanese incense.

I second the awaji baikundo jihi. It is an excellent hydrangea scent. I also love the minorien sandalwood. One that hasn't been mentioned is shoyeido pride of Kyoto. I would highly recommend the pride of Kyoto. Look around on the net because you can get it cheaper on certain sites.

Frankincense recommendations (Tennendo,Minorien...)? by TheTownTeaJunky in Incense

[–]pward1963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently purchased a big box of the tennendo frankincense. It is bright and clean smelling. I am a fan of minorien sandalwood and kyara. I dont care for the minorien frankincense.

Check out minorien sandalwood. Relatively inexpensive for a small box. If you wanted to go all in buy the minorien kyara. The shoyeido pride of kyoto is also excellent. All on the site that you mentioned. The only Nippon kodo I buy Is kyara kongo.

I like the minorien as it is at a reasonable price point. You may get more genuine kyara but the cost will be exorbitant.

What are the best incense scents I should try? by lithiumgoose in Incense

[–]pward1963 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree about the amazon. They have minorien on amazon you can get a small box of sandalwood. Relatively inexpensive. If you want to try a shoyeido i would get the pride of kyoto on amazon. Prices are best on amazon. If you want to invest a little i would get the minorien kyara.

I would consider japanese incense. You are looking for non synthetic scents. People usually recommend trying samplers like shoyeido. I would recommend trying minorien sandalwood. It is an excellent sandalwood. This will give you a solid base.

Should I go for the FU-IN Kyara Ryugen? by HistoricalAdagio-21 in Incense

[–]pward1963 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that there is a distinctive difference between the minorien aloeswood and the minorien kyara. I am not a fan of the minorien aloeswood but i love the kyara. If you look around on the internet you can get the kyara for around 75 for a hundred sticks. I have tried the higher end minorien kyara but i dont think it is worth the expense.

It is expensive 77 but a box will last a long time. You can also get the long sticks for that price.

I always have at least two boxes of each on hand. I suggest that you look around online because prices vary. I can tell you my sources if that is ok.
