The sweetly resinous note of palo santo
The scent of palo santo brings you a warm, sweetly resinous, lightly smoky character that is a favoured companion in many meditation practices. This Japanese version preserves the base notes while staying more restrained and cleaner in line, in keeping with the tradition. If you appreciate warm, woody scents, you will find this incense a gentle daily companion.
A clear line without a bamboo core
The sticks are made entirely of scented material, so the burnt-bamboo undertone does not disturb the softer note of palo santo. The smoke rises evenly in a clean line and fills the room gently. The Japanese style generally creates a softer atmosphere, which is why even more sensitive users enjoy it.
When to light a stick
The palo santo notes are well suited to meditation, calm moments after yoga, or evening reflection. Use it in the morning when you would like to begin the day with a warmer tone. One stick burns for about twenty to twenty-five minutes, so it can accompany a short practice or quiet music nicely. You are free to choose the moment when your mood calls for this scent.
Use and safety
Place the stick in a stable, heat-resistant holder on a flat surface, and keep distance from curtains and papers. Always ventilate while burning and never leave a glowing stick unattended. Once the ash has cooled, it can be wiped away easily with a soft cloth. With an attentive approach, home use will remain safe over a long period.
Storage and keeping the scent
Store the sticks in a cool, dry place, preferably in their original packaging, away from direct sunlight. This keeps the fragrance fresh for many months. When switching to a new scent, a pause of several hours and ventilation is recommended. In the presence of asthmatic guests or small children, please use the incense in moderation and only for short periods at a time.
