It's ok.
Predominantly grassy and hay-like, but if you're looking for a strong citrus character it's not to be found here. A quiet citrus note appears at higher temperatures.

Pretty mellow
I think pretty much everyone knows the scent of lemongrass. Even as a dried product it can hold its own in an incense mix. It can provide a second note to more powerful scents. Also, unless you are a seller 1 oz is more than enough for several months of enjoyment in incense.
