Growing up in the ’60s, I tend to have a thing for incense – very calming. Nowadays the benefits of incense have lost the “hippie” images and been promoted to the “yuppie/new age” term “aroma therapy”. This is a decorative miniture cone burner that came in the incense set. I find it too cute to use.
