I am writing this review for FNO original aroma.
I first found this site through another site, incensereview.org, which has most mainstream incense blends on review, as well as a few other not so mainstream, yet powerful, products. There were many great reviews on the product, and from what I could tell, this is what I was looking for. To be completely honest, my initial thought of http://www.aroma-clinic.com/ was that the site was possibly a scam. There were broken links, and pictures that wouldn’t show up. I spent hours doing a little research, a whois search to find owner of Domain, etc; when it came down to the actual purchase I must admit I was still a bit skeptical, and I would not have even placed an order if it were not for the great reviews given by incensereview.org.
First off, I ordered the product on a Monday, and received the item on Wednesday. This was awesome, as I have had problems with shipping in the past with other sites. When the product arrived, I was very excited to say the least. The product comes in a very thin, black-plastic, which feels rather cheap and unprofessional; however, don’t let outer appearances fool you this product is A+ quality INSIDE the package.
Upon opening the product, you are greeted with a slightly minty odor that is very pleasant. The quality of the herbs was noticed first, after collecting many products, I have gotten used to low-grade material with large stems, and in some cases seeds that will pop out of your burning bowl creating a fire hazard! However this product is among the highest quality of herbs I have had the privilege to burn yet. There are very little (if any) twigs, stems, seeds, or unburnable product. The product does not produce a harsh smoke; in fact the product is so smooth you may not realize it is burning.
The overall affect is enveloping, with its aromatherapy kicking in almost instantly. The aromatherapy aspect is a complete body therapy that begins with your chest and moves its way to your head. The affect is rather strong, and can last anywhere from a half-hour to an hour; and unlike other incense blends the ceiling of the therapy is not lowered over time throughout the day. The punch of the product can be a bit intense for beginner burners, so as always be safe and smart.
I have tried many different blends out there, and with the laws changing so fast it is nice to find a company that is 2012 compliant, and 50 state legal! This was an impressive feat, and I am still in awe of quality of the product, given the laws and restrictions to make this product 50 state legal.
Overall I would rate this product a 9.7 out of 10. If this product would linger a bit longer, would definitely be 10 out of 10. And just for a little background, here is a small list of other products that this product DOES compete with:
1. Mr. Nice Guy – Jeffery (or any Mr. Nice guy product for that matter, is beaten by FNO)
2. Cloud 9 Platinum
3. Insane Incense( Extreme, and Insane)
And much, much more!
