Stamford Mythical Black Incense Pixie's Dance


Second review - scroll down for earlier

Yeah, rubber bands and a hint of ginger is what I get on the cone. Not unpleasant. Quite intriguing in fact. Some of that rubber band returns when being burned, but sweeter. On the whole not an enthusiastic scent, not one to carry you away. Indeed, it's fairly neutral in the way of that grey paint that seems so popular now in refurbished pubs. Smoke and grey paint. Ho hum.

First review

This has a sombre tone - rubber bands and drying paint, quite serious and quiet and slightly studious. Not at all what I would associate with pixies or dancing. The names of these cones appear to be selected quite randomly. The scents are varied - some lighter and sweeter than others; and some are more fun and enjoyable than others. Most are pleasant, but not all. For such an interesting theme, the scents are pretty random. Some work for me, and others less so. This one is not fun, not heavenly, but not offensive either - it's just meh. It'll burn away and inform the room, but in such a sombre, neutral tone, it's like painting the room in brown.  Stretching for positive points - well, it's warm, has some woody, and reasonably pleasant sandalwood, so can give some backbone to a grey, foggy Saturday.  But, yeah, mostly meh.
