When these showed up they were very pungent. But after sitting on the shelf for at least a few months (its been over a year) they've become pleasant and have a light vanilla and wooden smell. I think they needed to dry a bit.

One of my absolute favorites for daily use

Why only 4 stars? First, this is a BEAUTIFUL scent - calming, Earthy, and very faintly floral. Great quality used for small rooms and burns for about 10 to 15 minutes. The downside, call me crazy if you want, but I advise against this incense if your house is haunted. It ENERGIZES spirits to interact physically. THAT is unpleasant. However, if that’s exactly what you’re seeking, then this is it!

I am a huge incense fan, and aloeswood is my favorite fragrance. I've tried a lot of different ones at various price points, and this is the best I've found. The scent is spicy, woodsy, and light - very natural, not "perfume." This will always be in my incense collection now, and is one of my two favorites. (My other favorite is Kayuragi Incense Sticks - Aloeswood , which is more expensive per stick and is a little bit heavier.) I burn it daily. Also, although the price seems expensive - this is more than I usually pay for a box of incense - it is a large box with quite a lot of sticks. It will last a long time, and it is well worth the extra price for the high quality. Couldn't recommend it any more highly for aloeswood fans, or anyone who wants a complex, spicy fragrance that is equally pleasing for meditation or just daily atmosphere.

The incense smells excellent and the product itself is good quality. The issue was with Amazon’s packaging. It was shipped in a amazon envelope with no fragile marking, and the box arrived crushed with several sticks broken. This is a delicate item and should be shipped in a box. I’m keeping it because the scent is great, but Amazon needs to package fragile incense more securely.

The smell of Kyara is definitely something sought after. These incense sticks are definitely a rounded version of the agarwood aroma: it's sweetened by other spices (mainly sandalwood) and there is definitely a wealth of musky and masculine tones. I can tell that there is agarwood in there but a reminder that this is a blend so if you're looking for pure agarwood/kyara/jinko, this is not it. It is definitely an amazing scent and I will use it very often! Just know what you're buying! Personally I love this smell and I can't believe that 300 sticks were so affordable. I'm very happy with this purchase!

I read the reviews before purchasing, but I was not prepared for the strength! Considering the price of actual agarwood, I highly doubt there is much at all in these sticks. It's a nicely spicy-woody-sweet scent that almost smells chocolatey under the (maybe cedar?) wood smoke top note. I find it pleasant, but your mileage will vary. It will definitely fill a room. Maybe break a stick in two and just do half to start with. A bit more smoky than the chrysanthemum variety, which are almost smokeless, but also not as bad as bamboo-core incense in smoke volume (and no burning grass smell lingering after the incense has faded). Mine came with the top of the box taped shut, so even though it was just tossed in a paper mailing bag with other stuff in the order, no spilling or broken sticks.

Probablement le meilleur encens dans cette gamme de prix. Chaleureux et sensuel.

ottima fragranza

Not very smoky, good scent

Rather stronger scent than expected. Not ideal for my small space. Too bold, spicy-woodsy overall too much scent for me! Should have read the reviews more carefully before I purchased this box. Sigh….
