King Karma Xtreme - Herbal Incense Review




Overall, King Karma Xtreme reminded me of a mix between Aztec Warrior AKA Red Eye and Cloud 9 Mad Hatter. They recently upgraded there 1g bags to 1.5g.

Smell:
The smell is similar to Cloud 9 Mad Hatter, it has a smilar minty smell, but also different, 

Taste:
Not the best, not the worst. It doesn't really have any flavoring in it.

Potency & Length of Effect:
As with most incense around now, the effect is only about 30-45 mins long. This stuff is potent and you'll be good on a couple of hits at first. If you've smoked Aztec Warrior, this is slightly less potent then that but it has a similar intense high.

Price:
I think I'm going to start leaving this out from now on since the prices vary so much around the nation. Locally this stuff is $20/g but online seems to run about $15/g. There's probably some cheaper, just look around.

Taste: 7/10
Potency: 8.7/10

White Rabbit Intergalactic Bunny Organics Herbal Incense Review


White Rabbit Intergalactic Bunny Organics is currently a 50 state legal product. This is more of a beginners product and isn't for experienced users. It gave you the effect, but a mild one that never really goes where you want it too.

Smell:
I don't really know how to describe it. I've smelled it before but I can't pinpoint what the smell is.

Taste:
The taste isn't very good, as with most incense. But this one is a little below average, although nothing that wasn't smoke-able.

Potency & Length of Effect:
White Bunny lasted for about 40 minutes or so. It wasn't a very potent blend, definitely below average. I had to smoke about twice as much as I usually do.

Price:
It varies a lot depending on where you get it. I've seen it very cheap but also seen it up to $25/g.

Category 6 Herbal Incense Review - Hypnotic Haze



Smell:
It's the typical hypnotic smell. I'm not sure what hypnotic is but it's the most consistent smelling flavor between different types of incense. If you've never smelled it before, it's very good. One of my favorites.

Taste:
The taste is pretty good, a step up from most incense.

Potency & Length of Effect:
Category 6 was a little weak and burned up pretty quick. I may have just gotten a bad bag, though. Don't get me wrong, it's a good product that i'd recommend but it could be a little more potent. The effect lasted for about 1 hr 15 mins - 1 hr 30 mins.

iAroma Potpourri Herbal Incense Review - Apple


 iAroma incense is made by the same company who makes ZeRo GrAviTy and is a very similar product. It may even be the same thing just a different flavor.

Smell:
It kind of had a little hint of an alcohol smell to it and it definitely didn't have an apple smell!

Taste:
Much like the ZeRo GrAviTy the taste isn't all that. The main ingredient is marshmallow leaf so it can be a little harsh at times. It tastes similar to the way it smells.

Potency, Effect & Length of Effect:
iAroma's potency, like everything else, is much like the ZeRo GrAviTy. I smoked the same amount and got the safe effect for the same length of time. It had a mellow head high that lasted about an hour. It was a little weaker then I prefer but everyone else seemed to enjoy it. If you smoke a little more you can get the desired effect, though.

ZeRo GrAviTy Potpourri Review - Juicy Fruit & Pineapple



ZeRo GrAviTy Potpourri is decent but nothing special. It has a mellow effect that's good for newer incense smokers. This is what it says on the back if you can't read the above picture: "Zero Gravity is the state of floating and weightlessness. The feeling of being in outer space. Are you willing to defy the laws of gravity" and then "Ingredients: Marshmallow Leaf, Flavoring Additives".

Smell:
It smells almost just like the Juicy Fruit gum!

Taste:
The taste isn't all that. The main ingredient is marshmallow leaf so it can be a little harsh at times. The taste isn't as good as the smell.

Potency:
ZeRo GrAviTy Potpourri is not the most potent blend around but it's not bad. I'd recommend this for someone new to incense, but it'll work for veteran smokers too.

Effect:
 The effect from ZeRo GrAviTy is a mellow head high. It was a little weaker then I prefer but everyone else seemed to enjoy it. If you smoke a little more you can get the desired effect, though.

Length of Effect:
ZeRo GrAviTy lasts for about an hour, give or take.

ZeRo GrAviTy Potpurri Review - Pineapple

Smell: 8/10
Taste: 6.7/10
Potency: 7/10
Effect: 7/10
Length of Effect: 7.5/10

I recently got another bag of this Pineapple stuff and the smell was completely different than last time. I would give this new bag like a 6 for smell. Maybe it's just a bad bag? I don't know but it's definitely not the same.

Head Trip - Olde No 10 Blend - Head Trip Review Herbal Incense Potpourri


Head Trip is great! This is definitely the strongest stuff I've had in a while. It looked kind of odd, was powdery and had a couple big incense looking leafs in it. But it turned out to be pretty good. This is not for your average smoker though.

Smell:
I didn't like the smell. It's very citrus like, it reminded me of Pine-sol.

Taste:
The taste was very similar to the smell. I didn't really care for it myself.

Potency:
Head Trip is very potent.  It's one of the stronger blends that I've had. I got this and smoked a couple big bowls, taking a good 10-15 solid hits and man was I wasted. I would not advise that. Start out with a few hits and wait to see how you feel. The effect will creep up on you out of no where.

Effect:
 Head Trip has a very strong head and mild body high that comes on slow but lasts a couple hours, slowly mellowing out over the time. It sometimes has a creeper effect that will sneak up on you. I'd say just do a couple hits and wait 10-15 minutes and see how you feel before smoking any more.

Length of Effect:
One of the longest lasting effects from incense that I've had. The first time I smoked a lot and it lasted for about 4 hours. The second time I was little more conservative but it still lasted a good 2 hours. 

Price:
I've seen this stuff at all different prices, but the average seems to be about $10/g. With a quick google search it should be easy to find.

Golden Leaf XXX Kush Natural Potpourri Blend Review

I bought some of this Golden Leaf XXX from www.buyeverythingforless.com, I got the kush flavor. Supposedly it's a natural blend containing althaea leaf, damiana leaf, mashwmallow leaf and other natural herbs. But I think there is some chemical in here too. For a lab report you can visit GLTest.com. I'm not sure on the legality of this product since some of the recent bans in MO, TX, OR and some other states. You'll have to look into that yourself. I'm also gonna switch up the review format a little bit this time to make it easier to read at a glance.

Smell:
The smell is a little odd, I'm not sure how to describe it. I didn't really like it much though.

Taste:
The taste isn't bad but it isn't good either. There isn't much of a taste really, it's kind of bland.

Potency:
Golden Leaf XXX Kush potpourri is fairly potent. I burned about 8 hits or so the first time and it was pretty strong. I'd recommend a little less your first time to see how you do.

Effect:
The effect is a pretty strong head and body high. It left me with a little uneasy feeling in my stomach the second time I smoked. I had used quite a bit so I would start out slowly and see how you like it before diving right in with the bong. This may not be the right product for someone who doesn't smoke much. It also gave me the feeling of a non-smoker smoking a cigarette, king of a light headed high.
Length of Effect:
This was definitely a plus to the product. It lasted longer than most incense do, about an hour and a half or so. 

Price:
It costs $22 for a 2 gram jar or $58 for a 6 gram jar. The shipping is free. If you use the coupon code "MrHMT" you can get $30 off your first purchase of any 3, 2 gram jars.

Nugz Herbal Potpourri Review - Nugz Kush, Nugz Blueberry, Nugz Grape, Nugz Hypnotic



 Nugz herbal potpourri is pretty good, although the effect doesn't last very long. I tried both the Nugz Kush and the Nugz Bluebery. I really liked the smell of the Kush, it's probably the best of any potpourri / incense / spice that I've tried. The Blueberry on the other hand left a salt like taste in my mouth for days afterwards, I don't know what the fuck was up with that but I won't be buying that again. It comes stuck together in little buds which resembles the real stuff. The Blueberry jar I had just crumbled up easily but the Kush was much more moist and stuck together better. The effect is good but it only lasts for about 45 minutes. I paid $40 for 4 grams of this at a local head shop, but it seems you can get it online for about $25 for the same amount. I tried ordering some from 4aceswholesale.com but it said it was banned in my state of Missouri, although the stores here seem to sell it fine. Not worth the $40 but at $25 it is. Below is the ratings for each of them.

UPDATE for Blueberry Nugz, October 10, 2011:
A buddy of mine brought some more of this over so I decided to give it another try. It wasn't bad at all this time, nothing like the first time I had tried it. This time it actually tasted like blueberry's and not salt. I'll go ahead and up the taste score to a 7.5.
