Review on Discover the Divine Aroma with our Resin Incense Sampler Set - Includes Most Popular Resins, like Frankincense, Myrrh, Benzoin & More! by Amy Ruiz

To clarify, I am new to using incense resin. But what I've learned so far is that there are many ways to heat or burn incense resin, the key is temperature control. Once you understand that not everything needs to be lit, you'll find that they're great for beginners (someone new to various resin smells). I also tried lighting them directly. It's a no no. They don't want the resin actively burning with flames, they smell like plastic (that's resin). However, once you master control of the heat over the flame, you will begin to smell the odors as they should. No toxic or harmful smoke. I don't think they are fake as fakes don't make economic sense as they actually smell nice. This is a good introductory example, but please learn to "burn" them without burning them.
