I have to confess that I am new to this incense business. I never had anything against it, I just never felt I had much of a use for it. Then quite a few years ago I started working from home, and it was then that I took more notice of the stale odors and musky remnants that can emanate in a closed room or house, especially of course in wintertime. So I "borrowed" some of those incense sticks from my son and found myself delighted in the scent, and atmosphere it prompted. I then purchased a burner of my own, and bought a selection of different scented incense in the cone design, (easier to use and safer). I suppose that people that are into incense so heavily that they can easily write a review of each and every scent have their favorites to be sure. Perhaps even different scents for different moods, and seasons. As for me, all I can say is I have not found a scent yet that I have not taken too. Except perhaps for the what I refer to as the basic blends, that is, "rose", "lemon", "sage", etc. I much prefer the exotic sounding ones like "dragons blood", "midnight rain", and "autumn breeze". Not because they have cooler names, but because they are blends of different scents, and therefore usually smell a whole lot better.

This frankincense and myrrh not only does indeed have two cool names, but is one of the most pleasant out of all that I have tried so far. I won't bother to attempt to describe it to you. Suffice it to say its wonderful, and it is my opinion you will love it. Lastly, this package of 16 cones, (you get one package of 16, not three like what's pictured), was purchased along with a burner I also bought here on Amazon in order to qualify for the free shipping, (which is what I suggest you do. Either buy enough of this, or combine with other incense, or a burner. You will then be saving something on what you will pay for this for in one of those weired gift shops that sell this sort of stuff). Try it, then sit down, relax, and just breathe. Recommended...

Update: If you are interested in trying what I have found to be the very best of all the incense I have tried, may I suggest you follow the enclosed link and read my review of the Kamini incense. I have not bought any other kind since finding this. Its the best... Dragon's Blood Cones - Kamini Incense - Box of 10

The main reason I like the smell of this incense is because it doesn't have that smokey smell that a lot of cheaper incenses have. It's a very relaxing mellow smell. All in All pretty good.

I got the cones for my son...another great product by
Wild Berry. This is pure incense, doesn't give you a
headache. It's the best incense I've found, and I've been
burning incense since the 1960's
Don't be afraid of this!!

The Frankincense and Myrrh cone incense burn well and smell oh so nice. We liked them so much that I have ordered another box.

This is a classical blend of frankincense and myrrh. It is a mild, clean, and soothing fragrance - not heavy or strong. It is not overly perfumey, or flowery. It doesn't smell like smoke when burning. It reminds me of what a sacred place would smell like. I have a terrible problem with allergies, especially with incense. This blend doesn't bother my sensitivities. I am very pleased with the fragrance and would buy it again.

I ordered this along with the regular Mag Champa incense sticks as well as a 6 pack variety of incense. For some reason whenever I burn the blue box Mag Champa it actually makes me nauseated so I really don't burn that much anymore. However these cones of Frankincense and Myrrh are very soothing to me and they are not as overpowering as some of the other kinds of incense are. I am happy I bought them.

I love this product. Its easy to use and lights quick. Smells exotic for all of you who wish to be taken into another land by end of day. The down side is the package is only 16 cones. Since cones as opposed to sticks burn only about 1/2 hour this is draw-back but looking forward to ordering more from this company since pleased by this pick.

I like this incense and it was more reasonably priced here than anywhere else I've looked. Burns just long enough and gives the desired effect.

Burned these during the holidays... were great for friends and family who enjoyed them as well.

I should have bought more, but I will remedy that shortly. It is a great product. It may be a bit too strong for some people but for me it is perfect.
