Let’s be honest, modern life can feel like trying to defuse a bomb while being pelted with notifications. If your personal “check engine” light has been flashing for a while, we’ve found a more sophisticated solution than just screaming into a pillow. Meet the Collins “Do Not Disturb” Incense, a fragrant “off” switch for the world.


Handcrafted in Korea using ancient techniques, this isn’t the overpowering stuff your uni flatmate used to mask suspicious smells. These clever sticks are made from natural wood and oil without a bamboo core, so they burn cleanly, leaving a gentle lavender scent designed to calm your frazzled mind. Think of it as aromatherapy for the man who’s one bad email away from living in a shed.


The real genius is the packaging. It comes in a slick, travel-ready tin containing 70 sticks and a clip. The lid cleverly doubles as a burning tray, allowing you to deploy your personal zen-zone anywhere—the office after a dreadful meeting, the bathroom when you’re hiding from the kids, or even your car (while parked, obviously).


For $29, you get 70 opportunities to tell the world to kindly back off without uttering a single word. It’s the perfect gift for any gent teetering on the brink, or for yourself, because frankly, you’ve earned a moment’s peace. Go on, light one up and embrace the sweet smell of solitude.
