A selected, natural resin incense for charcoal and incense sieves, with a slowly unfolding, warm smoke. A clean material for lovers of traditional incense.
The Warm, Balsamic Scent of Benzoin
Benzoin is the fragrant resin of the Styrax tree, loved for its warm, sweet, faintly vanilla-balsamic smoke. A soft, soothing character that tradition links with the warmth of home and quiet moments.
Composition
Benzoin resin (styrax benzoin – indonesia, sumatra).
How to Use
The resin is traditionally burned by sprinkling it onto glowing charcoal or an incense sieve; on a sieve the embers release the scent more slowly and gently. A few grains are plenty for one session. Use it in a well-ventilated room on a heatproof surface.
Good to Know
This is a natural resin, so the size, colour and shade of the grains may vary a little from piece to piece — the mark of a real, unprocessed material. Keep it well sealed in a cool, dry place and it will last a long time.
