Just remember that those charcoal discs are supposed to 'spark off'
in a well ventilated, or outdoors, area until they glow. I have
always been told that they give off carbon dioxide (? is that the
garden hose in the tailpipe one....sorry it's very early, no coffee
yet).
I can pass on info to you about incense bases, scents, bonding agents
and the burning agent, to make your own incense if you like. That
way you know exactly what's in your mix....much like henna...lol.
