Dave Lee’s Alchemy Aromatics – Magical Incenses
& Magical Incenses Book

Posted on by

Dave Lee has been making incenses since 1978 and in 1980 created Alchemy Aromatics in response to the demand for proper, traditionally-made incenses. Alchemy Incenses are hand-made from pure natural ingredients according to traditional magical procedures. Many of the herbal ingredients are grown organically in our own garden.

These wonderful Planetary, Zodiacal, Elemental, Festivals incenses and Magical Incense book can be purchased from Dave Lee’s Chaotopia website.
