I used to but now it gives me a headache!:rolleyes:
I just bought some for a friend's birthday though.
I like a lot of the scents but, can't burn them myself.

For some reason, I've always hated incense. They make my allergies act up...maybe that's why.

Yes, I alternate between incense and candles. I love burning both!

Yes! I LOVE THEM!

I mostly burn them in my room. I do not burn them when the dogs are in there with me, though. I love the smell.

Me too! I love incense! :D I love candles too. Anything that smells good. When it comes to incense, I have found a little shop not far from my home that makes incense and it smells great! It doesn't even burn smokey. I can see how some incense can bother people, but if you find the right kind, it's great. ;) I have several incense burners, but my favorite one is my wolf burner. It's a cone burner, so you put the cone inside the burner and the smoke comes out of the mouth. LOL

One of my good friends brought me back some fabulous Indian incense when he returned from his trip to India. It smells sooooo good too! It actually relaxes me a lot, when I burn incense.

Rob's mom burns sented candles & I swear one of these days I'm going to go insane from all the pressure being put on my face (sinus)

The smell is too strong for me, I prefer lightly scented candles. My last roommate used to burn nag champa all the time, I loved the smell but I couldn't be anywhere near it or I'd feel sick.

Yes in my young days when i was somewhat of a wannabe Hippy, but not anymore, I think my allergies would not like them, I also heard that they believe that breathing in the stuff in your lungs can cause cancer, I have no idea if that is true or not, probably just scaremongering tactics, besides everything you touch, eat, breathe, smell gives you cancer these days.

As I am asthmatic, highly allergic to most scented things, and wheeze almost instantly in the presence of any kind of smoke, that would be a no from me.

No, I really don't care for incense...but I loooove "smelly" candles. My favorite is cinnamon (apple or pumpkin spice). :)

I do burn incense, but rarely. It has never made me sick, though after burning one piece I have no desire to burn any more. Maybe if I smelled it for a long time I would feel sick.
