Frequently Asked Questions
About the incense
Most incense is a bamboo stick dipped in a charcoal coating and synthetic fragrance. You're burning the coating, and that's what causes harsh smoke and headaches.
Looshi sticks are hand rolled around a bamboo core from aromatic wood powders, wild raw honey, and natural oils by women artisans in Karnataka, India, led by Richa, a third generation incense maker.
About 45 minutes of clean, natural fragrance per stick.
Each single scent box contains 20 hand rolled sticks. That's around 15 hours of fragrance per box.
Since ancient times honey has been used in Incense Making traditional incenses. Wild raw honey is a natural binding agent of fine powders used in Incense making. Honey has a warm sweet aroma which mixed with essential oils and spices elevates the overall experience.
Coconut activated charcoal is made from coconut husk, and it is clean and sustainable.
It is odorless and Non-toxic and does not contain chemical agents that can contaminate.
Natural fragrance oils, the kind we use at Looshi, are derived from essential oils. Essential oils have many aromatic properties. To create our intentional blends, we extract a specific portion of these compounds from the essential oil.
This extraction process enables us to capture the desired aromatic essence.
