Raajsee Palo Santo Natural Incense Cones

This carries the name palo santo though I'd be surprised if there is anything from a palo santo tree contained in this cone. This is a blend of fragrance oils which creates a pleasing accord which is intended to give the impression of palo santo. The cold throw scent on the cone is clove, menthol, lemon, caramel, honey and brown sugar with a hint of floral and  patchouli. Some aldehydes. It's actually quite attractive. Indeed, on the whole the cold throw scents of all the Raajsee cones have been pleasant in an everyday body spray or room freshener manner. Unfortunately the hot throw scent on the burn tends to be obscured by the smell of smouldering wood powder and binder.  

And the same is true here. The scent on the burn is unhappily compromised by the use of wood powder. Placed at a decent distance the heavier wood based scent molecules tend to drop and reduce before they reach me, while the lighter fragrance oil scent molecules tend to carry further, and I smell more of them. But, even so, there is still a little too much muddled and harsh bonfire smells for my comfort. 

Bought as part of an assorted pack of Raajsee cones on Amazon: 6 packs for £12. There are better quality and more attractive incense cones that can be bought for £2 a box or less.
