Just a quick note of thanks.

I have had major hand surgery. It was more extensive than I thought it would be. So in addition to stitches, I also have screws and an external hardware brace holding my hand together. More fun than I expected. : )

I am off pain medication and am shipping packages again. As my hand is thickly wrapped and I am my only employee it may still take a few extra days for your order to go out as the going is slow.

Again, I thank you so much for your patience in receiving your order from me.

Shoyeido's potters have come up with some gorgeous new incense bowls and incense wheels and we've got them in stock!

Olfactory Rescue Service

We're pleased to introduce you to the Olfactory Rescue Service, formerly Mike's Prattle. The Olfactory Rescue Service (ORS) exists to review and discuss the world of retail incense in order to help bridge the gap between East and West in terms of understanding incense and helping the reader find higher quality scents, sources for these scents and to connect with others passionate about fine scent. Written in a highly understandable language, Mike, Ross and Nancy help bring the world of incense to your door, one scent at a time.

While ORS cooperates with all reputable incense companies (several of which send samples for their review), it currently remains a third party resource and only claims bias in favor of excellent service, fair pricing and the constructive.

After reading what Mike, Ross, Anne and Marian have to say, come back to Essence of the Ages for all your incense wants and NEEDS!! We carry 99.99% of all incense they review!
