I can confirm that Chrome Incognito doesn't do much. After setting the cookie, and then closing the Incognito window and starting a new one, I could see:

  userData mechanism: undefined
  cookieData mechanism: 677
  localData mechanism: 677
  globalData mechanism: undefined
  sessionData mechanism: 677
  windowData mechanism: 677
  pngData mechanism: 677
  etagData mechanism: 677
  cacheData mechanism: 677
  dbData mechanism: 677
  lsoData mechanism: 677
  slData mechanism: undefined
(where 677 was the number assigned to me and stored in the evercookie)



The important part is restarting the browser after using Incognito.

Works fine.
