I do not really know what the "Wake up and Smell the Incense" thing that is going around is really about, but I assume that it has to do with the traditional Mass and the results the Motu Proprio will have. So, here is a picture (from a Magazine from 1947) that a friend gave me.
So our Mass goes back, without essential change, to the age when it first developed out of the oldest liturgy of all. It is still redolent of that liturgy, of the days when Cæsar ruled the world and thought he could stamp out the faith of Christ, when our fathers met together before dawn and sang a hymn to Christ as to a God. The final result of our enquiry is that, in spite of unsolved problems, in spite of later changes, there is not in Christendom another rite so venerable as ours. ~Fortescue
