Does Incense Remove Odors?
Yes, when it comes to eliminating odors and making your home smell wonderful, incense can be a great alternative to scented sprays, candles and plug-ins.
Keeping your house smelling fresh is easy with incense. Incense neutralizes odors in your kitchen, bedroom, or bathroom in a wholesome and natural way.
However, please remember that while incense can hide unpleasant smells in a variety of ways, it cannot entirely eliminate them. This means it won’t take long for the smell to return after the incense burns out.
The scent of incense varies, but is usually spicy and strong.
Some cheap incense smells are too overpowering, making them only compete with bad smells, rather than neutralizing them. Japanese incense usually does not have these issues though.
Even though I like the smell of traditional Indian incense – a combination of flower, plant, and herb scents – sometimes I felt that it was too smokey.
As for Japanese incense, it’s less smoky than Indian, and the scents are nature-based, which makes it more refreshing.
The smoke produced by Japanese incense is just enough to get rid of odors and they leave a somewhat subtle scent behind. I have tested them on several friends who have fragrance sensitivities and found it to be effective and reliable.
Does Incense Make Your House Smell Good?
The smell of incense does make your house smell good. It is a form of fragrance therapy. The scent of incense can improve a person’s mood.
You can use incense for many purposes. Incense sticks and similar products have long been used for religious purposes, but nowadays, they are more popular as fragrances.
Incense can be used as a form of natural air freshener. You can use them alone or in conjunction with other home fragrance products.
Incense is available in different variants and smells. The prices are usually quite reasonable. The fragrance of the incense depends on the ingredients used in it.
When incense burns, it sets a layer of smoke around the house, which, when mixed with the air inside, makes the house smell good.
However, incense only makes your house smell good for a short period of time. After some time, the smell of incense tends to fade away and replace the original homely smell in your house.
You can burn the incense on an incense burner or ashtray. You should keep the burner or ashtray in a corner of the room or in any other place you want the scent to stay longer.
The smells of fish, cabbage, pork, and other foods that surround the kitchen can be eliminated using incense.
Also, incense is generally considered safe for use by adults, children, and pets.
Does Incense Get Rid of Cigarette Smell?
If you are trying to find a way to mask the smell of smoke, burning incense could be an option.
Burn the incense on a non-flammable surface for as long as possible. Once the cigarette smell has disappeared, snuff it out.
According to my research, I have noticed that on several Facebook groups for smoking enthusiasts, incense is suggested as a potential solution that can temporarily mask the scent of cigarette smoke, which allows smokers to enjoy their guilty pleasure without exposing their secret.
Does Incense Get Rid of Weed Smells?
Yes, incense does help in getting rid of weed smell to some extent. However, it does not remove the smell completely. It just adds a different smell to the room and masks the smell of weed.
It is important to distinguish two different types of smells when it comes to weed. Fresh weed should have a skunky, pungent, flowery, sweet, or piney smell. If it isn’t good weed, it can smell somewhat like hay.
Another kind of smell is that of burning, musty ashtrays, normally associated with spent bowls or old roaches.
By burning incense, you can temporarily hide both types of weed smells.
However, despite its ability to mask smells, incense does have its limitations. As long as your roach, bong, or bowl is still around, the weed smell will come right back just as strong once your incense has been fully consumed.
Also, be aware that the potency of the incense is different from one type to another. The more potent the incense is, the more effective it is in absorbing weed scents.
While burning incense can be a hassle, it is always better than not using any at all. Although the room may still smell like weed, it will be much more pleasant with the incense burning.
Marijuana and Incense
Incense can be used to mask marijuana odors, especially if you don’t have time to deep clean the area. All you have to do is light an incense, and the incense smell will quickly overpower the pot smell. The solution isn’t ideal, but at the same time it is not a bad one.
Additionally, when cannabis smoke lingers in the air, the incense smoke acts as a camouflage for the smoke.
Burning incense before smoking helps to prevent the marijuana smell from taking over the room. Also, remember that natural incense can cover the smell of marijuana without being as noticeable as synthetic incense.
Ultimately, incense is only useful if you’re trying to mask the smell of marijuana from someone unfamiliar with its smell. Otherwise, they will just figure it out for themselves.
