What do the incense sticks smell like?
Incense sticks:
Offline: Sandalwood (grounding, relaxing)
I Can Buy Myself Flowers: Plum blossom (floral)
Forest Walk: Hinoki cypress (like a pine forest).
Palo Santo: The scent is woody, warm, slightly resinous with a subtle sweetness.
How long does an incense stick / Palo Santo burn?
Incense sticks burn for about 25 minutes. Palo Santo smolders and produces smoke for about 1–2 minutes, then needs to be re-lit. One Palo Santo stick lasts for around 20–30 uses. The same applies to sage.
How do you use Palo Santo?
Light one end over a candle for about 20 seconds, let it burn briefly, blow it out, and let the smoke work its magic for a few minutes.
What’s special about these incense sticks?
They are handcrafted in Japan using traditional methods that date back to 1850. They are made without a bamboo core, which means they burn with less smoke. This makes them more pleasant for indoor use, and the scent is subtle—not overpowering.
Are they 100% natural?
Yes, they contain only natural ingredients—no synthetic additives.
What can they be used for?
Perfect for winding down, focusing, or simply creating a pleasant room fragrance.
Where and how is the ceramic holder made?
The ceramic is handmade by me, Alina, in my little studio in Wiesbaden. It has never seen the inside of a truck—let alone an airplane.
