What do reviewers say about Pure Incense and Norne?
Natural resins and incense come together in a blend that smells like a temple at dusk, sacred smoke, not showmanship. The darkness of the opening gives way to something cleaner, warmer.Pure Incense
Norne doesn't smell like a candle shop. It smells like walking through a Pacific Northwest forest, the kind of place where resinous fir trees dominate and moss covers everything in sight.Norne
