Lately I have been all about eschewing all my scented candles for incense. I can’t really explain it – there is just something amazing about good incense. The way it fills the room; the way it envelops you. There is just something about the ceremony of lighting incense that gets me every time. Blame my Catholicism or blame Madonna; either way I have found my way back to incense. Maybe this is why all those kids in Uni were burning it all the time. Okay maybe not. And trust me the good stuff is good. It smells nothing like that cheap shit your roomie used to burn. My current favourite is from the kids at CDG.
