Incense FAQ

Sandalwood, agarwood, coils, cones and backflow burners — how to choose and burn them well.

What is the difference between sandalwood and agarwood incense?
Sandalwood smells warm, creamy and woody; agarwood (oud) is deeper, resinous and more complex. Sandalwood suits daily use; agarwood suits quiet, focused sessions.
What is backflow incense?
Backflow cones are hollow-core cones burned on a special burner; the smoke flows downward like water. Use a backflow-specific burner — a regular holder will not create the effect.
How long does one incense stick burn?
A standard 21 cm stick burns about 30–45 minutes. Coils burn for several hours; cones about 10–15 minutes.
Is your incense natural?
Our incense is made from plant powders and natural binders. We avoid synthetic perfume oils; scent notes listed on each product page describe the actual botanicals.
How should I store incense?
Keep sticks and cones sealed in a dry place away from direct sun. Humidity is the main enemy of even burning.
