Recensioni
First of all, the incense arrived in time. And when I opened, I was greeted by a pleasant bouquet that seemed like receiving a hug from Nebet Aset Herself. This is not the type of incense that 'smells good', or 'sets a mood'. This is not your stepmother's incense—this is incense that takes you by the hand and tells you 'you are coming with me'. Get ready to use these pellets and take a trip to Aset's place. Afterwards, ground with a good tea and enhanced journaling. May this incense be abundantly available. Dua Nebet Aset, Weret Hekau.
Received it while I had Covid so couldn’t fully appreciate the fragrance right away, but now that I’m feeling better, I love this. The bottle is beautiful and each ball of incense provides just the right amount of smoke, while the fragrance itself is authentic and high quality.
Small free gift also great. Seller communication on point. Recommended.
