Two boxes of 20 hand rolled sticks: Create and Clarify. 40 sticks, 8 inches long, about 45 minutes each, around 30 hours of fragrance.
Bamboo core, aromatic wood powders, wild raw honey, activated coconut charcoal and natural aromatic oils. No synthetic coating, nothing dipped.
Create at the start, when you are looking for the idea. Clarify at the end, when you are getting it right. One stick at a time, in a heatproof holder, in a room with some air moving.

Made the slow way, since 1972
Hand rolled, not machine dipped.
Every stick is rolled by hand by women artisans in Karnataka, from a paste of aromatic wood powders and wild honey. Hand rolling keeps the finer notes that machines burn away.

In partnership with communities in Bangalore, India, we roll every one of our incenses by hand like they were made thousands of years ago.
- Light the end of the stick, blow out flame and place in holder.
- Ensure the incense burner is heatproof and non-flammable.
- Burn incense in a well-ventilated room and away from flammable materials.
- Never leave incense burning unattended or near children or pets.
- Enjoy a resignified space.
Our sticks are hand rolled from natural ingredients with no synthetic coating. Still, animals are more sensitive to smoke and scent than we are.
Burn in a well ventilated room your pet can leave freely, keep sticks and ash out of reach, and avoid burning around birds, whose respiratory systems are especially delicate.
If your pet shows any sign of irritation, stop use and move them to fresh air. For pets with respiratory sensitivities, check with your veterinarian first.
