What do you get in the box, and how is it different from traditional incense?
Nine bricks arrive individually packed in small sachets, with a leaflet in six languages — English, Dutch, German, Italian, French and Spanish. The box is also suitable for storage and as a gift. The character of the Nag Champa fragrance: a sweet floral-woody scent that combines champaca flower, sandal and resinous notes.
Unlike classic incense sticks, these bricks are not lit — they sit in a diffuser above a tea light and release their fragrance through slow warming. There is no open flame, smoke is minimal and there is no ash at all. That makes them a gentler choice in sensitive homes, with small children or in an office.
How do you use the bricks correctly?
The bricks must be used only in a diffuser designed specifically for them — a traditional oil burner does not reach the right temperature. Place a tea light at the bottom of the diffuser, light it and put a brick on the copper plate. Within forty-five to sixty minutes the brick fully releases its fragrance. After use let it cool, then the blackened brick can go into the biodegradable waste.
What is this fragrance good for at home?
The Nag Champa fragrance is traditionally recommended for meditation, evening calming rituals and prayer. You will feel its real effect when you light the brick in a quiet corner where you sit down for a few minutes and attend only to the fragrance. Presence comes more easily and the rush of everyday life recedes.
What is inside the brick? Is the composition natural?
Each brick is a blend of aromatic woods, exotic flowers, natural bark, tree extracts, resins, leaves and flowers. The maker sources its fragrance oils responsibly — every ingredient is IFRA-compliant. No ash is produced during use, smoke is minimal and the fragrance is distinct and long-lasting.
What should you watch out for when buying?
It is important to use the separately available Aromafume diffuser with the bricks — other devices do not reach the right temperature. The diffuser becomes hot during use, so do not touch it and keep it away from children. If you are new to the system, it is worth choosing a sample pack first to find your favourite fragrance — you will make a good decision this way.
