What do reviewers say about Holy Stick and Ambre Sultan?
This isn't the incense that screams for attention. Holy Stick is the smoke that stays, close, warm, personal. The cardamom keeps it bright. The benzoin keeps it soft.Holy Stick
This is not the amber of amber-filled cookies or syrups. It is raw, resinous, and aggressively warm, with herbal and savory notes that emerge depending on your skin chemistry.Ambre Sultan
