I feel so deprived. I *love* incense, candles and oils scented baths, and yet my ex wouldn't allow me do used any of in during our little romantic interludes. What a bitch. She always complained that the smoke hurt her throat. :(

What is *your* favorites?

I like french vanilla candles... I like how white candles light up a room. Frankincense... or really any type of incense. And Oils? Again, French Vanilla... I love how it smells on the skin.

*Looks Down* Yep - I'm still a male. I guess I'm just an odd one. :)
 
I am a complete sucker for Victoria's Secret strawberries and champange. Other than that, I like rich, earthy smells and water scents.
 
<insert yawn> am so tired...I love Linden scented candles, Pillar's of them everywhere...I just got out of the bath a bit ago ;)
 
Lavender. I prefer the cleaner scents most times. Occasionally, I really like spicy scents, and then out comes the cinnamon and sandlewood. Currently there are about 5 lavender candles, and one pomegranite in my room.

That's one of the body sprays I wear, Victoria's Secret strawberries and champange. Yummy smelling stuff!


As far as candles go...I love the scent of blackcherry and vanillaberry. I found another new scent of orange vanilla that smells just like the old ice cream bars....

I collect candles...I have somewhere between 60-70 around the house......
 
I've just went through my incense collection... discovered I had somewhere around a dozon different scents.

I love candles too... but currently the only one I have is a Vanila pillar...
 
I love the oils. Cucumber, Jasmine, Sandalwood, and Egyptian Amber are a few of my favorites.

I have this little blue glass dolphin, and a dish hangs from it's mouth. You fill it up with water, put a few drops of oil in, and light a candle underneath. It is heavenly, and best of all smoke free.

They are also wonderful on the skin, and last forever.

I'm a big vanilla candle addict, and also the incense sticks. My sweet tart doesn't let me burn those either....I feel your pain!! ;)

Vanilla or vanilla musk is yummy. My favorite scent is one that I make myself from essential oils. It's made of light patchouli, lotus and sage.

I prefer the deep earthy scents to the more spicy ones. Some women have problems with scented oils in bath water causing bladder or yeast infections, but you can easily substitute rose petals in clear bath water with scented candles around the tub followed by a scented oil massage. Some people do have allergic reactions to incense sticks (particularly those with asthma). I usually use loose incense on top of a lighted charcoal (charcoal specifically made for incense, not barbecue charcoal!). You can buy/gather the herbs, oils, and resins yourself and create all sorts of wonderful blends.
 
MMMM I love amber oil...I also like sandalwood and patchouli. There are about 20 different kinds of incense around here but I have to say my favorite is from India...alas,I cannot find it anymore.
All candles are great, I tend to go more towards the flowery ones... rose,lilac and lavender being my faves at the moment.
 
I love the Pina Colada scented candles, they smell so damn good... make we wanna do... things...
Bloody hell, now I've got them on my mind.
Dammit.

we sell all of that at the store i work at. in fact, we're about damn near the only place around here (Anchorage) that sells much for incense, really. odd for a knife store.

anyway, i'm partial to jasmine, myself. and the cone incense. there's this really cool dragon i've seen that stands about 8 or so inches tall, you see, and you put the cones in a slot in its back. when you're burning the incense the smoke comes out its upturned mouth! it's hella cool!
