Loose and home-made incense

 

I'm gathering here all the loose and/or home-made incense reviews I have done. These are small operations who sell or gift their hand made incense via friends or Etsy or Facebook or forums or word of mouth. I find a direct connection between this form of incense and the original incenses made for thousands of years. Often these makers will research into ancient ways of making incense and share that research and their recipes with each other. When they sell they may charge mostly to cover costs rather than to make a profit. These are generally non-commercial operations. And they can be the most interesting and authentic incenses available.
