When a flavor is presented to your tongue, senses work together in a complementary dance to translate the experience to your conscience. Smell and taste are inextricably linked, and influenced by the feelings from all senses that can be aroused by the small seed or sticky sap of a tree. Food invigorates physically with energy to survive, but flavor and scent invigorate psychologically, calling upon distant memories, awakening moods, and opening up new channels of thought. This is the domain of incense, a form of warming perfume that graces bodies and living spaces with aromas that evoke powers of magic.
