Koya's Intimate Premium incense Sticks

Second review - scroll down for earlier


This  is an attractive everyday perfumed incense. The accord is rather similar to Chypre - a woody, mossy, citrus style scent complex. It's quite a masculine scent - or, rather, a masculine perfume scent with mossy, woody, musky base notes lifting through subtle aromatic creamy jasmine and ylang ylang to sharp citric herby floral notes like lavender and bergamot and lemon and orange blossom. Very enjoyable and satisfying. The blend of scent notes working in harmony.

First review

A highly perfumed and attractive everyday perfumed incense from Koya. Machine extruded charcoal paste on a machine cut bamboo stick which had been impregnated with a bold cologne type scent. This is a professionally made perfumed stick - well made and long burning. It is not an aggressive scent, but is very strong and confident, which is admirable, but may not always be welcome. It's a fairly masculine scent with notes of cedar, musk, cologne, bergamot, and sage. 

For those who want a splash of bold, invigorating, masculine scent to wake up the house and give it confidence, then this will do. It's not an incense for meditation or study, or for tender moments. But for what it is, it's bloody good!
