As one of the many fragrances, incense is loved and appreciated by many brothers because it is convenient to smoke and burn, and can be tasted in the shortest possible time. However, many fragrance enthusiasts still find it tempting whether fragrant ash can distinguish the quality of fragrance.

1、 Touch sensation

From the tactile sensation of incense ash, it can actually distinguish whether agarwood incense is pure natural or not.

A section of incense ash that has just been burned off the agarwood incense stick is bounced onto the back of the hand. If there is intense pain, it indicates that there is a chemical accelerant in the agarwood incense stick, which cannot completely burn during the incense burning process. The temperature is preserved, and incense sticks bonded with glue generally have a shorter appearance of this phenomenon; If there is a significant residual temperature, i.e. residual temperature, but no intense stinging sensation, it indicates that there may be incremental materials such as limestone in the fragrance; If there is no sensation in the hand, such as the sensation of feathers, it indicates that there are no additives in the fragrance except for the natural formula. Because of its natural fragrance, only two things are needed, natural fragrance powder and natural adhesive powder, made according to the proportion. From a common sense analysis, the fragrance produced in this way is abundant when burned and has no residual temperature.

2、 Color

In terms of the color of agarwood, generally speaking, the color of agarwood with good grades is black, but it does not necessarily mean that agarwood with high grades is black.

Because fragrant gray black indicates a high amount of oil, the relative grade will also be relatively high. But there may be doubts about discrimination because some fragrance enthusiasts do not like the black color of the incense ash in the furnace, like caterpillars one by one. Therefore, some fragrance masters will add a small amount of charcoal in the blending process, which will make the incense ash turn white. Of course, since the level of incense ash black is already high, they can naturally participate in other things to make the incense ash black. So fragrant gray black does not necessarily mean that the quality of agarwood is good, and fragrant gray white does not necessarily mean that the grade is poor.

3、 Shape

In terms of the shape of incense ash, there are two types of shapes after combustion: one is broken in sections, and the other is broken and continuous, such as standing upright and rolling. It is difficult to distinguish the unevenness of agarwood quality from its shape, as it is caused by multiple factors.

The first is the environmental impact during the combustion of agarwood incense, as humidity and temperature in the air can affect whether the incense will curl.

The second factor is the kneading density emitted during the production of incense, which will have a certain impact on the final burning shape.

The third is the origin and oil content of the incense material. Based on experience, Huian style incense generally does not break easily during combustion. Vietnam's red soil and Nha Trang are typical examples of soil settling. After high-temperature combustion, the soil particles contained in the settling will undergo pottery like effects, making the ash hard and unable to stand upright. In humid spring and summer, it will bend and have large rolls.
