Oakland Gardens Premium Hand Dipped Incense Sticks, You Choose The Scent. 100 Sticks Blue Spruce. (Blue Spruce)

I bought the pumpkin spice sticks for $11 and selected the French lavender too. didn’t realize the price was so different. The French Lavender was 19.95 for the same size bundle of the pumpkin spice.. I only bought the F.L. because it was their best seller. I got it today, the smell is nice. But I honestly thought there was bugs in the bag for a minute! It took me a min to realize maybe that these little seed things was for the scent? And the sticks still had oils on them, like they were still Infusing. The incense bag was double bagged because of the excess oil. And the stick themselves are wet. It left a residue on my hands. I wouldn’t trip but for 19.95 it should’ve been packaged better and dry! The pumpkin spice scent is nice though.

I would give one star if it weren’t for the fact I love the smell. But, it’s powerfully strong, and I cannot burn them. I burnt one and it smoked heavily, very dark clouds of smoke. The second one I waited a whole day to burn and only burnt half before I had to put it out. I started to feel sick. Terrible headaches all day. I suspect synthetic chemical fragrances and not essential oils. The Japanese (Shoyeido and Nippon Kodo) and Nag Champa I burn do not make me feel ill like these and the smoke is light colored/minimal. Hoping they refund me but not holding my breath.

Smells really good, one of the qualities of this is it smells like real French Lavender all rolled up in a incense stick with its gummy stickiness and has little flower petals of Lavender thrown on top of the incense bag to roll this incense into a relaxing smooth scent, quality is amazing tho I’ve smelled different lavender oils this one smells wonderful for the price, very worth it and smells like the real oils of a lavender!! Thanks

I am familiar with the Mango Butter scent, so I decided to give this brand a try. I like the aroma these incense give off, however, I wish they were just a little bit stronger. With that being said, my family hasn't complained about these as they sometimes would with the usual brand that I normally buy. These work effectively. They have a nice slow burn time of at least 45 minutes. I can actually purchase sticks similar to this at a discount mall in Atlanta at a cheaper price and significantly higher quantity, but the drive alone is between 45 and 60 minutes under ideal traffic conditions and the quality is definitely inferior. My normal sticks that I usually purchase gives me 20 more sticks, but at more than twice the cost. I use the far side of my garage, or second bay, as my mancave, but then it's NOT really a mancave, because it's co-shared with my daughter. Our area is complete with a stereo, personal seating arrangements for my daughter and I. At any rate, we both smoke cigars and both dislike one another cigars, how ironic lol. But that's where these incense come in. I burn two sticks at a time and our club smells great!!! I would recommend this brand and will buy again in the future. I think these sticks are a very good value for the money. I'm sure that I may have some sticks where a few of the tips may be chipped off, but I equate that more with a shipping and handling issue and not a craftsmanship issue. These are shipped in bubble wrap protected large envelope and I have no problems with that, but a small box with bubble wrap would provide better protection for the sticks during shipping. I'm also certain that in doing so, the cost would increase! I'm happy with my purchase!

I took a chance on this incense because my usual pine scent, Wildberry Evergreen, wasn’t available. I am SO glad I did! In my opinion this is much better. The pine scent is more true, there are no fancy “hints” of anything else like in a cologne that would make it a little perfume-like. It’s just real pine, like a campfire or fireplace and it’s really the scent I’ve been looking for all along. I leave some sticks out of the package around the house, and it even gives off a lovely scent without burning!The sticks burn slowly so they last a nice long time, and my order arrived under the estimated time. I’m thinking this will be my new go-to for pine incense, so it was a good accident that I could not find my other brand and tried out these. Happy!

These are not your discount-store variety. Potent and burn 20 minutes longer than cheap sticks. I use this scent for morning meditation and I intend to try their variety pack over the holidays. Comes in a re-sealable bags---no fuss no muss.
