Which Should You Buy?
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.
This is a seriously hyped-up, dark Christmas concoction that's either a "true love" or a bit of a meh let-down, depending on your skin chemistry and incense sensibilities. If you want to smell like a sophisticated Christmas Eve service in a bottle, this is your jam.
