Incense Sticks

1985?

You can buy really good ones from ethnic shops. ebay linky

I've found the sticks from Poundland rubbish, have bought some decent ones from market stalls like in York, there an outdoor market near The Shambles I think it's called. Try good quality unusual gift shop, I try buy from shops that actually burn them on the premises then you can tell the quality by that too. I also find the cones better than the sticks.

I do burn candles a lot but I find that incense sticks really are a quick and effective to clear cooking smells in my kitchen/dining area!
Regarding candles, unless they are good quality, ie: expensive, it is difficult to get a quality aroma!
Thanks for your input, realblender!

Last year I had a Doh moment and realized where do they get theirs usually: Asian supermarkets or big shops! Been pleased so far and do have a sniff at the box.

15gm is not much, very roughly how many sticks in each pack?

Thanks Mum2ConnornCerys - agree Poundland ones are rubbish! Also, I do like incense cones!

Thank-you Setdosa - shall have a look

Thanks Simplez - not sure if we have any Asian supermarkets in N.Ireland - but will google!

Thank-you Leeandemmamason - shall have a look, did'nt notice any in Tesco !

I hate the sticks and prefer the cones. Less mess, better smell and look nicer.

They look good, I've ordered some. Are they easy to use? I've never used any before.

I go to this random spiritual shop which sells all sorts, look for the little shops and never buy the cheap 10 for £1 ones. Your best bet is to buy authentic Indian ones online. Nag champa (I think it is ) smells great and strong x

My sister uses the Naga champ cones, and they smell really nice.

The only sticks I have ever found to be any good are ones called black magic, although I got some alright ones in B&M one time, that were black current scented.

the chinese supermarket on donegal road does insence, loads of kinds and very cheap. good quality though.

I like the sound of these Incest sticks

Thanks everyone - all very usefull info. Shall be checking out all recommendations!!
Really appreciate all your inputs!
