Aroma Appreciation Order
Hello everyone!
Burning high-quality agarwood is becoming increasingly common, offering stress relief and nourishment for both body and mind.
However, here are some suggestions for your reference:
1. The order of incense appreciation:
When purchasing agarwood chips or pieces, prioritize appreciating the lower-quality, cheaper ones first, and then save the higher-quality, more expensive ones for last.
The reason is similar to drinking tea: if you drink the best tea first and then the less desirable ones, you'll find it bland!
Agarwood prices vary, but a lower price doesn't necessarily mean it's bad; it just means the overall oil content or age might be lower, but it's still natural wild agarwood. Or, for example, high-quality Qinan agarwood. White and green agarwood (the king of incense) are such precious and their fragrances so captivating that it's hard to smell anything else; any other scent would just seem like a jumble of aromas!
They are worth every penny and have a purpose. To allow agarwood and sandalwood to fully express their fragrance and the characteristics of their respective producing regions,
we must first determine the order of value of each component from low to high for incense burning. Only then can we differentiate the fragrances layer by layer.
Therefore, the order of low -> medium -> high is irreversible.
2. Extracting the Fragrance
Natural agarwood grows in the wild amidst soil, mud, sand, insects, etc., some exposed, some hidden.
Agarwood may contain raw wood mixed with other materials, or have less oil and more raw wood...
It may also contain glue, paint, or wax... etc.
Most shops will clean the surface,
but not completely.
To ensure a pleasant experience and result, the materials to be burned must be carefully examined before selecting clean, uncontaminated agarwood resin, or cutting, pinching, or crushing it... This process is called "extracting the fragrance."
3. Appropriate Burning Methods
There are many ways to heat agarwood, some of which are listed below:
1. Direct burning
2. Electronic temperature control heating
3. Charcoal
burying Agarwood and sandalwood each have their own superior aroma characteristics from different producing regions. How to bring out these characteristics? Temperature control is crucial.
For example,
when I tasted Hainan Island red soil agarwood with an electronic temperature control heater, it had a delicate and sweet aroma, but the lingering fragrance was lacking...
However, if I used direct burning or charcoal burying, the lingering fragrance was obvious and beautiful.
When burning Indonesian agarwood, I found the aroma from the instantaneous release of oils to be too strong.
If using... Using an electric incense burner, first set it to a low temperature and then slowly adjust the setting upwards to savor the aroma;
this is when the fragrance is most beautiful. For my personal preference, this is just right.
However, factors such as the location, space, and physical condition of each person
will affect their experience with the same agarwood, leading to different evaluations.
Therefore, proper temperature control allows the agarwood to release its best aroma.
Regular incense burning not only helps you understand the characteristics of agarwood and sandalwood fragrances but
can also refresh the mind and relieve stress...
4. Incense Enjoyment Environment
While incense can be enjoyed anywhere, a tranquil mind is essential.
However, being in an environment with too many or too strong scents will diminish the enjoyment of the incense.
5. Cleaning and Replacing Utensils
Our incense burner's ash will gradually accumulate various oil stains and embers after use.
Keeping the burner clean and
regularly checking and replacing the ash will not only ensure a pure aroma but also prevent the smokeless charcoal from going out.
The above
is for your reference.
