2 oz in a golden tin with a window, which displays the beautiful candied rose and jeweled resin incense. Each tin of incense is topped with a jet black apache tear stone, which is obsidian, black volcanic glass, representing the fiery lava that flows through Serafina's veins.
 
Serafina
The fiery one
The burning one
Her heart burns like a flame
Her soul on fire
Wings ablaze
She flies across the sky
Perfumed smoke through the air
Trails behind her
A crown of jasmine
Sweet saps, labdanum, and rose petals braided through her scarlet hair
And jeweled resins adorn her neck
From her mouth pours the phoenix
Her eyes reflect the dragon
She is the flame
Bringing light to the darkness
And warmth to the cold
 
Serafina, the Nymph of fire, and burning desire, folds her scent song into an incense of the heart. Resinous Rose and Jasmine is the song Serafina sings as she flies across the night sky, wings perpetually on fire.

This incense is rather profound; made up of 7 parts, and years in the making. They contain more resinoids than raw ingredients, which allows them to melt into a divine pool of resinous nectar. The amount of precious materials I used in this, I question myself!
 
The scent is so complex and layered, it's truly astounding. It's a fragrance I feel I have smelled in many lives before. An intuitive blend, a combination of ancient ingredients that has graced past life hands, been kneaded into dough, stored in alabaster, scooped in heaping amounts, and formed into incense before the fragrant ambrosia was bestowed to goddesses on hot coals and stones, as the tendrils of smoke carried prayers making their way to the gods. If you create an incense from the heart, with love folded into every knead, and believe in the magic, the incense when heated, can be heard whispering secrets of past lives. It envokes the memories locked behind the wall of consciousness. It awakens stories held deep within the mind, only to be remembered at certain times, when called upon, when messages are asked for.
 
The 7 parts of the Serafina Incense:
 
Part 1: A blend of resinous, sticky, handcrafted extractions, kneaded into pure agarwood powder and labdanum resin, to form a black paste. The black paste was cured, and then formed into little incense balls.
 
Part 2: Resins and woods were ground and aged together.
 
Part 3: Fragrant rose buds were dipped in my handcrafted white copal resinoid, and rolled in powdered benzoin resin
 
Part 4: The remainder of the roses, benzoin, and white copal resinoid were blended and imbued with my handcrafted rose enfleurage extrait.
 
Part 5: Bright ruby red kua myrrh and frankincense tears were painted with my absolute of balsam fir; making them look like shining jewels, and imbuing them with an extra layer of scent.
 
Part 6: Fragrant rose petals coated in Peru Balsam Resin, and dusted with powder of agarwood, frankincense, dragon's blood, and tonka bean.
 
Part 7: Fragrant Rose buds imbued with my rose enfleurage extrait, ambergris tincture, and frankincense resinoid
 
 
This incense needs to be heated on an electric incense burner, or alternatively, heated on foil or a mica plate over a charcoal. It can be burned on a charcoal, however, this burns the incense. Gently heating it slowly releases all of the delicate notes of the precious materialls, without the scent of burning resins and plants, and allows you to experience Serafina's full scent song of the incense.
