A warm, woody scent rising from an open bag, and you are already in the mood of a South American forest — the 500 g Palo Santo ("holy wood") chip pack is plenty for long weeks, even months. Its delicate, balsamic fragrance is recommended for slow rituals, meditation, and refreshing the energy of a space.
What is Palo Santo?
Palo Santo is a South American tree whose aromatic inner wood has been part of cleansing ceremonies for thousands of years. The chips come from the fragrant inner part of the wood, broken into small, easy-to-handle pieces. The scent is gently sweet, woody, slightly citrus, with characteristic balsamic notes. It is not aggressive — just present, a quiet, calm presence that fills the room.
How to use
Place a few chips on a heat-resistant incense burner or ceramic dish, light them, let them burn for a few seconds, then blow out the flame — the smouldering chips release their fragrance from this point. A handful of chips works for about 30 minutes. The large format means you do not have to ration: use more for a single occasion, or top up gradually during a longer meditation.
Storage and preservation
Palo Santo chips are light- and air-sensitive — keep them in a sealed metal tin or resealable bag, in a cool, dark place. In the original packaging the fragrance lasts a long time. Do not place near a heater or in direct sunlight, as warmth speeds up fragrance loss. With proper storage, the full 500 g can be used over months.
