Chinese Kyara Agarwood Incense (Qinan Oud Incense) - Premium Natural Agarwood for Home Fragrance & Luxury Gifts | Multiple (Weight 20g -Upper Medium Grade -Block)

I learned quickly that this incense is best used, in my experience, with charcoal rather than a flameless diffuser of any sort. The smoke is almost milky and very satisfying, and the fragrance is still on the softer side even when burning it. Then it lingers in the air, and it's quite soothing for my stressed-out little soul. There's a tiny bit of a ritual to it that also seems to relax me. It does burn faster on charcoal, so be warned if you're hoping for more longevity. In that case, definitely go with a flameless incense warmer if you've got one. It's way out of my normal price range, so I likely won't revisit it, but it was quite nice while I had it.

I am new to Agarwood and my interest was piqued as I have done my research on it since ordering. I love incense and experimenting with different types and methods of burning. When opening this canister I was able smell a light earthy scent, unlike others who say it is quite noticeable without burning. My 3rd bout of COVID in June changed my senses of taste and smell unfortunately. Once I lit a piece of the wood much like I would palo santo, the earthy scent became warmer, and I could sense a light sweet scent to it as well. I would say that for me this is a very light scent that feels warm and comforting, and a bit happy. The wood pieces themselves are about 1 1/2" - 2" for the most part and burn for a decent time. Due to my sense being skewed, I would like to find an incense burner as suggested to see if it appeals differently to my senses.

Uh wasnt sure what to expect with this one. It does have a lovely natrual spicy smell. The cubits of wood have random holes drilled into them to baby them up. Not a very strong smell.

This is a nice low cost way to get involved into some oud. I am not educated about oud in person but I know a lot about it from studying perfumery - so I can say the price is low, I assume the quality matches and it has a good smell! The chips are a good size for burning/heating and I think the amount you get for the price is a good value. Great place to start!

I've been a longtime fan of Palo Santo wood and burn it on a regular basis. When I discovered this agarwood, I thought I'd give it a try, and I'm so glad I did—it smells absolutely amazing. I use a little torch lighter to heat a piece up until it's good and smoking. The scent is awesome and a really nice change from Palo Santo. I even have a piece on a burn tray in my bathroom to keep it smelling pleasant, and I'll light a piece in my living room every once in a while for aromatherapy. I still love Palo Santo, but this is a wonderful new addition to my routine. I would highly recommend ordering some to give it a try—you just might love it.
