There are a number of new offerings at Mermade Magickal Arts right now, many, like the three below are designed to be used with the new heater they are selling. I have found that a lot of people really like this approach as smoke just does not work for them. Deep Earth Premium-2013: These blends […] […]

Sarasoju is a nice, pretty straight up sandalwood. I am assuming that besides the wood that there is sandalwood oil as it has a very rich, deep sandalwood scent but you would need to use oil to get it to smell this way. Regardless, I think this is a winner and if you are looking […] […]
I’ve deleted the “Recent Comment Activity” thread, and felt it was just time for a friendly reminder of what is considered acceptable commenting behavior at Olfactory Rescue Service. Of course as always 99% of you always seem to implicitly understand what’s OK and what’s not and we appreciate that. The general rule of thumb is […] […]
Some of our reviews are getting to be pretty old and there have been many changes in the incense scene since they were written. I was at Kohshi a few weeks ago and stocked up on some of my daily favorites and decided that it was time to “re-review” some of these. So in the […] […]

In appearance it is a nice gloss black body with golden lotus flowers around it. It has a ceramic base that the actual ceramic heater rests […] […]

Today I decided to open up my container of Nippon Kodo‘s ”Kurobo” Nerikoh and give it a review. Upon first impressions I am confronted with a sweet, woody and spicy mix of scents, straight from the package. It is slated as having aloes wood and sandalwood, while its name is a phrase meaning “Black Priest” in Japanese. I was initially […] […]
For those of you who have asked where to get my incense I now have three incense blends available at Mermade Magickal Arts. Ocean of Night, Sandalwood & Ambergris and Souked Agarwood. There are also sample sizes. The Souked Agarwood is a limited run given the cost and availability of the agarwood I like to […] […]
Howdy! Today I will be reviewing Nippon Kodo’s ”Hatsune” Nerikoh. This kneaded blend tends to be a strong, syrupy sweet mix. I ordered a ceramic container of this, and was pleasantly surprised when I received it. It is slated as having aloeswood and sandalwood, while its name is a phrase meaning “the first bird warbles of spring” […] […]
