AMBER is often referred to as the "Nectar of the Gods" or Ambrosia, because of its divine aroma. This fragrance is traditionally used as a powerful medicine to treat a number of chronic illnesses and hysteria. The sensitive user will find the numerous variations of amber incense useful for tuning into their own healing processes.

SANDALWOOD is considered sacred in India and is extremely popular because of its spiritually uplifting qualities. Sandalwood is ruled by Uranus and is frequently used by individuals desiring to recollect past lifetimes. Moat commonly, the essence is burned during prayer and meditation.

COMBINATION incenses are those which we have found to have the qualities of both the Masala and the Charcoal.

It is possible to make a masala incense and then dip it into liquid perfumes, producing a very colorful and rich bouquet.

Or, semi-liquid substances such as resinoids can be added to the masala along with essential oils or liquid aromatics.

These incenses usually have a great deal of depth, and once burned, leave a lingering after fragrance.
