Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lineage
This one's a divisive marvel. Lineage conjures up anything from a serene seaside temple to a full-blown fish market disaster, but you can't deny its unique, mineral-infused incense character. It's not a crowd-pleaser, it's a conversation starter.

Our Verdict - Mandala
This one's a proper divisive amber-incense rollercoaster. Some find it a bright, uplifting masterpiece, boasting an almost fruity effervescence. Others reckon it's a screechy, synthetic mess, a chaotic battle of notes, and a scrubber that just won't quit. Definitely not a safe blind buy.
