What incenses do you usually use for what rituals ?

[lines10]

Basically title. For me, it's apple+cinnamon and lavander all are by Satya. I like them, they're really nice but I'm only starting. Wanted to see your "incense list"

Frankincense is my go to. Going to give copal a try next week.

Frankincense is a good general one. Rosemary is often used in British folk magic as a 'stand-in' for any herb.
It depends, local herbs and resins for local spirits. Frankincense for the dead, sometimes rose.

If I'm working with a spirit I'll use an incense that they like or corresponds with their nature, but otherwise I mainly use frankincense + myrrh.

I've also recently gotten into using resin incense as opposed to a stick incense and that's been pretty engaging, being able to make your own incense blends is definitely nice.

Definitely seems more intimate.

It depends on what I´m doing. But i rarely use incese sticks for my rituals and mostly burn a mix of resins and herbs.
What i pretty much always have at home is frankincense, dragons blood, styrax and sandarac. And my collection of herbs and seeds that i picked myself (for example mugwort, sage, lavender, rose petals, ash seeds, henbane seeds and many more)

wormwood

Mugwort, too.
Depending on what I'm doing, I drink mugwort tea as well as burn it (I find wormwood too bitter)

As well as incense, I'm increasingly drawn to using colognes and waters. Much like Florida water in American folk magic, I use 4711 cologne for some cleansing work, and rose cologne or rose water for my Dead and Our Lady.

Frankincense + myrrh; Sandalwood or Dragon's Blood are my go to incenses

 

[Amadeus]

Frankincense + myrrh; Sandalwood

Yes same here, my favorites I get these as rocks and sticks. I remember using some opium incense sticks as well, they felt quite nice.
Most of the time I use frankincense, myrrh and sandalwood, experimenting with others every now and then.

I've become very fond of cedar recently.

Must agree, I have some white cedar and bergamot incense sticks that are really nice.
