I do. Although I find that the smell is too strong while it's actually burning but I like the scent it leaves after. What I do is light a stick then leave the room and do something else while it's burning.
I am also picky with the type of incense I burn. I only use Nag Champa. This is what I learned from Wikipedia:It is an Indian incense originating from the Champa flower
It has a high concentration of Sandalwood
It is burnt in Hindu temples called Ashrams
It absorbs moisture from the air which causes it to sometimes feel damp
Bob Dylan is known for burning Nag Champa during his concert performances, as is Grateful Dead and The Black Crows
So do you enjoy burning incense?

Yes, I do. i burn an incense after cleaning a room or the house. I choose those incense that has great smell like Vanilla or Lavender. I read about incense that it takes away negative energy aside of those sweet smell. It is nice to smell that scent specially after cleaning the house. happy

I LOVE incense, coffeeshot and there is some Nag Champa burning right now. It is my absolute favourite scent. A very strange but interesting Jamaican friend put me on to it several years ago and the smell always reminds me of him. It has a peaceful efect on me and feels almost mystical.

Hey coffeeshot! Yes I do burn incense and have for years. I
have never burnd the Champa incense. I have burned Sandelwood
though. I have also burned Jasmine which is one of my very
favorites and Strawberry and Vanilla. Those are usually the
ones that I like the best. But Jasmine is the one that I use
the most. It is rather strong when you are burning it but I
have always loved the smell of incense burning so I have
gotten used to it over the years. It tends to relax me.

we have a nice little incense burner from our last trip to Holland (imported from India( of course) haha
We both like the incense burning, especially after the supper meal when we finally relax, it is soothing and relaxing. we have bought the mixed pacs before but we are rather keen on certain scents and really dislike others.. since they are a real mood setter.. nice in the bedroom too.. very sensuous.

Sandlewood, rose, lavender, cinnamon and gardenia are nice ones that come to mind.

For some reason, Vanilla makes me nauseous,, why is that??

I do have incense and will burn it sometimes. I actually like the smell that comes from the incense. I think it is better than an air freshner, because the scent from air freshners dies down too quickly, but the aroma from incense lingers longer. Some air freshners can become overwhelming for the short time the smell is there, but I find incense to be a soft and soothing smell.
