If you have not tried Tibetan Incense, it is absolutely a stop you should make on your journey to experience different incense from around the world.
Tibetan Incenses are made from herbs, woods, flowers and are pressed into sticks, they are not wrapped around a blank stick like Indian or american incenses are. What you get is the pure fragrance of the woods, resins, and herbs in the incense.
Most Tibetan Incense is woody, so what you smell is generally either a 'dry' wood or a 'sweet' wood. A dry wood may contain undertones of herbs or resins that are not especially sweet, and a sweet wood would be blended with resins, herbs and plants that give the wood more of a warm and sweet character.
Tibetan incense is hand-made, and usually from the herbs and woods from the area where the incense makers are located.
