We so far have been impressed with the offerings from Sacred Elements, so it seemed natural to try Sacred Elements Juniper & White Sage, with such a promising title. It’s not every day that we are willing to break out the sage and smudge the place, but it’s fairly frequent that we want or need to. This was one of the inspirations for us to carry Sacred Elements Juniper & White Sage. We will at times add juniper to our white sage at home, so to find an incense already compounded with juniper only sweetened the deal. It’s not an over-the-top sage and juniper. It’s considerably more subtle than that. The core of the incense is that of a semi-sweet amber with champa-like qualities. This alone is enough to offer such an incense. With it’s already excellent base, there is the addition of earthy, cleansing white sage and the bright, balsamic element of juniper. We weren’t in a big hurry to add another incense to our list, but after sampling Sacred Elements Juniper & White Sage, we felt that it was a natural addition to the library of fragrances that we offer.

Smudging Without Sage
Sometimes one doesn’t want all of the smoke nor wants to deal with the process of smudging with sage. Thank goodness there are options. Some incenses contain sage as a key component, permitting one to purify their environment without sage bundles. One of our favorites is Sandesh White Sage. It has a lovely champa-type core with the addition of white sage. Don’t look for an over-the-top white sage burst; it’s considerably more subtle than that. Another one we have fallen in love with is the wonderful Hari Darshan Copal + White Sage. It combines a lovely semi-sweet amber core with the piney, cleansing property of copal and an earthy note of white sage. We also have these wonderful contribution of HEM White Sage Masala Incense. It’s a dry-type masala incense with notes of white sage. If you want something else exciting, we have a white sage incense with the crisp, clean addition of juniper, go with Sacred Elements Juniper & White Sage Incense. So all is not lost if you wish to smudge without having to deal with sage bundles. We have options-a-plenty.
