A question about Pinon in Santa Fe

A few years ago, I had a tiny little adobe house that houses little tiny bricks of SW pinon scents that burned in the little house. like incense. I really loved it.

I will be in Santa Fe at Christmas and wonder if it's possible to buy any SW scents to burn...like Pinon.
Any idea if I can buy any such thing to bring home?

I would love it if I could find something.

Most gift shops will have incense with SW fragrances like pinon. Sage smudge sticks are even better. These are also widely available.

This should give you an idea of what I am talking about:

Sounds great Debi, or should I say, smells great!
But what are these bigger bundles used for? Fireplaces?
I'm happy to hear I won't have a problem finding SW scents to bring hone.

This will tell you a bit more about smudging. You can also google "smudge stick" to find more:

My neigbor who works as a medical doctor cleans her apartment with sage smudge. Something about bringing back bad energy from the hospital to her apt. I started doing it and really liked it. It feels clean is all I can explain.

I just read more about smudging.
I must admit, I've never heard of it , but I'm willing to give it a try. I'll have to buy some smudge sticks when I'm in NM.
It sounds like I need a feather too.
I can't wait to smell the smudge sticks.
