Which Should You Buy?
This is *the* reference for a pure Catholic church incense, bar none. It's divisive; some find it a meditative masterpiece, others a dusty, unwearable relic. Performance complaints are consistent, so be prepared to overspray or reapply.
This one's a divisive affair, a 'love it or hate it' church incense that screams solemnity and ancient spirituality. Many love its photorealistic, cold incense vibe, while others find it too sharply medicinal or even plasticky.
