Encens copal mexicain

I wasn't expecting the softer, sweeter note this has compared to the sharper copal I've burned before, and it lingers in the room for hours without going smoky. Lit a bit in my home office and the whole space felt lighter and less stale by evening.

The resin burns so slowly and evenly that one small piece fills my whole office with that soft, sweet-woody aroma for nearly an hour. It genuinely shifts the mood in here, like the stale air just lifts away.

I was a bit skeptical about "cleansing energy" claims, but after burning this during my afternoon work slump, I genuinely felt more focused and the room didn't smell like a candle store. The resin burns slowly and the scent stays soft and earthy, not at all harsh like some other incense I've tried.
