Summary: Essential Magickal Cookbook!
Comment: This is one book I could never do without! There are so many recipes for all variety of spells, charms and empowerments, not to mention info on how to make natural soaps! Many of the oil mixtures make fantastic perfumes- I love the Sweet Pea Bouquet.
The chapter on substitutions is an invaluable resource in itself- I think a lot of books on magick put too much emphasis on ingredients rather than the actual process and intent, this book, like Cunningham's folk magick series, advocate that we should always remember power comes from within- very important!!! Like all Cunningham books, this one includes a basic intro to magick which is always worth re-reading to reinforce that we are the main ingredient in magick!
While this book is great for ideas and recipe creation advice, I'm a great advocate of witches writing their own spells and magick, and this book can be a means of discouraging this which is the only qualm I have in recommending it. Keeping that in mind, Cunningham's 'Incense, Oils and Brews' is an invaluable reference for any witch, pagan, wiccan or even new ager! I couldn't live without this book in my collection!!!

Summary: A must-have reference book!
Comment: This is one of my favorite books by Scott Cunningham. He explores so many different methods of magickal creation that there is something for everyone and more. If you want to learn more about making your own incense, brews, potions, powders, inks, soaps, tinctures, oils, herbal baths,etc., YOU MUST BUY THIS BOOK. Each section is informative and full of recipies, explanations, suggestions, and warnings. The chapter on substitution is excellent and the charts and appendixes are helpful as well. The book's tone is more instructional rather than spiritual, especially compared to Cunningham's other books. If you are looking for in-depth information about magical herbs and oils, I highly recommend reading Cunningham's Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs and The Magic of Aromatherapy in addition to The Complete Book of Incense, Oils, and Brews.

Summary: A Must Have For Every Wiccan Library
Comment: This is the first book I read about Wicca and of Scott Cunningham. He is thorough with his explainations on each recipe - the substitution list alone is worth the price of the book. If you are new to wicca, exploring wicca or have been practicing for many years, this book is a constant you will return to again and again. The references contain good information to assist you in further exploration. I especially appreciate his openness. He is not at all pretentious as I have read in other books. Scott encourages you to be creative, free thinking and not to be constantly worrying about "getting it right". A very down to earth writer who knows his subject well and communicates it in such a way to get your "magical kitchen" started. May all who read this book find the "magic" in everyday things!
