Was swiping around IG in bed last night and you kn Was swiping around IG in bed last night and you know how one could accidentally end up ordering things when hungry and seeing the “wrong” pictures on social media. Forgive the white balance from the warm lighting..... but this incredible incredible pahang MSW durian quality despite the tail end of the season (possibly the last week-ish). Buttery, creamy, intense bitter, what more to ask for in a durian experience?! Sometimes peak season doesnt even reach this quality. Truely awed.. wonder if it is due to the weather differences from yesteryears or just a really well managed late fruiting grove. #durian #singapore #fruit #fruitsg @99oldtrees
Deeply saddened by the passing of an important inc Deeply saddened by the passing of an important incense friend. Ross Urrere was an expert when it came to incense, we met on basenotes almost ten years ago and also on olfactoryrescueservice where he served as an incense reviewer. When i started making incense sticks, he was not only a dedicated customer, but more often a connoisseur, a mentor, and a source of inspiration. These were superb creations of Ross which I will now continue to cherish, and appreciate, not only the scent of the blends, but also the fond memories of the always very friendly,passionate and humble Ross. Rest in peace Ross, you will be missed. #incense #線香 #香道

Incense from @craftincense @kencannata just in tim Incense from @craftincense @kencannata just in time for the new year. Finally got to sample Devadaru Rose after half the world have smelt it and raved about it so much that it got me extremely curious. It has been two years since Ken has gone on this incense journey, which by far isn’t an easy one, filled with challenges from different dimensions, and yet the need for a clear, clean, untainted and some what stainless motivation to actualize. I am, the imperfect teacher, whom cannot and should not mould students in my footprints, but i am glad Ken has achieved, not simply just methods, procedures, suppliers, etc, but instead a sense of olfactory acuity and creativity to bring many excellent ethereal scents to the market. Devadaru Rose indeed is as what many have described.. beautiful beyond words that it creates an emotional connection on the first whiff. Heart of Lavender was also an incense where Ken has superceded me, by being able to embed and stabilize the core lavender identity in the middle of the cedarwoods. I am seeing the future and new breakthroughs in incense culture and appreciation and in his works #incense #线香 #線香 #香道 #香文化 #沉香 #合香
