Frank & Rose Incense Sticks

A perfect blend of the highest grade Rose oil (70%), small quantity of a frankincense resin (30%), pure honey and precious halmaddi. A beautiful delicate scent of halmaddi based flora, with some vanilla and sandalwood along with a resinous and supremely smooth masala. This is a very ethereal yet earthy fragrance. It is as complex as our inner journey  – light and woody, ethereal and floral, male and female aspects combining and dancing in a perfect union. Some connoisseurs have called Frank & Rose a ‘lokum’ incense – we tend to agree with them; it has an ethereal sweetness common to the best Turkish delight indeed! If you prefer a less sweet and more woody Frankincense & Rose blend, please try our Frankincense & Rose Incense Sticks, made with 80% frankincense oil and 20% rose oil. Mike from the the Olfactory Rescue Service informs: “While I have not tried a pure Bhagwan frankincense, the Rose I was sent (and will review in a later installment) was incredibly well done and it’s hard to tell if that’s what is in this. The incense is really about the collision between the two, and it is an interesting one because it seems fairly dynamic where you can get the individualities of both while mostly experiencing them interact together. I think that’s a really fine trick in a “two ingredient” incense, where it seems like the relative strengths of both vary during the burn. In fact because I wasn’t sure how this would work, I spent a bit of time with this one. The honey in the mix actually reminds me of what might happen if the Holy Smoke line went for more premium perfume oils. Strangely the way the middle meets is something almost like a confection, with some caramel or even fruit in the mix which shows that the base is as much of a player as the two ingredients listed. Its a long burner as well, and my experience was I liked this more and more with every stick.” Full review is available here: https://olfactoryrescueservice.wordpress.com/
