I bought a copy on my first visit to this wonderful shop and promised a friend I would let her read it when I finished but I’m enjoying it so much and it’s the kind of book I’ll dip into each week I ended up buying her a copy too! Mail order was hassle free, reasonable delivery charge and arrived promptly. Can certainly recommend.
Very nice little 30 min burning time sticks by a Nippon Kodo brand (if I remember correctly) they smell really nice, the smell before the burn is a little different though (a little more aloeswoood-y) but I think that's normal for Japanese brands of scents compared to my more accustomed nose to the Indian variants, since Japanese incense are made more with the powder bases, but I do think this one has a synthetic aloeswood (from what I have read on reddit), but high quality synthetic aloeswood oil, so nothing like cheap perfumed incense, just so you know, you wont be getting 100% real aloeswood for this price, its far too endangered and a precious material, but for what it is, it is very delightful, reminds me of a Japanese version of all the Indian Oudhs (another word for aloeswood), nice and relaxing and smells great. Sweet, woody, resinous and definitely spicy. Will be buying again in the future. Very nice sticks.
Just Love love love this, love the idea, love the look, and the weight. This was a present for my sons first house, he isn’t moving until September but I couldn’t wait to give it to him, he loves it too
Ditto as above. This purchase was a gift. Therefore has not been read by myself.
