About resin incense
In tradition, resin incense made from tree saps, gums, and botanicals has been burned across many cultures to
mark sacred space, deepen meditation, and refresh a room before ceremony or ritual. Many people burn resin
incense for a fuller, more complex aroma than stick incense typically offers, especially during longer rituals
or gatherings.
How to burn it
Light a charcoal disc with tongs — not your fingers — and set it in a heat-safe censer or burner until it
glows and develops a light coating of ash. Sprinkle a small pinch of resin on top and let it smolder; a little
goes a long way, and you can add more resin as it burns down. Explore more
incense and aromatherapy, or pair it with a proper
incense burner designed for resin and charcoal use.
Care & safety
Always burn on a heat-safe surface away from anything flammable, use a censer or burner designed to handle
charcoal heat, ensure good ventilation, and never leave burning charcoal or resin unattended. Keep out of reach
of children and pets. Store unused resin in a cool, dry, sealed container away from direct sunlight.
Frequently asked questions
What is it, and what scents are available?
It's a 100-gram container of natural resin incense, meant to be burned on charcoal rather than lit like a stick or cone. It comes in Copal, Sandalwood, Myrrh, Musk, and Benjui (Benzoin). It's a decorative and aromatic product, not a health product or medical device.
How do I burn resin incense?
Light a charcoal disc with tongs and place it in a heat-safe censer until it glows and ashes over slightly, then sprinkle a small pinch of resin on top and let it smolder.
How much resin should I use, and how long does it burn?
A small pinch at a time is enough — the resin will smolder and release fragrance for several minutes, and you can add more as needed while the charcoal stays lit.
Do I need a special charcoal disc and burner?
Yes — resin incense requires self-lighting charcoal discs (sold separately) and a heat-safe censer or burner rated for charcoal heat, since resin won't smolder on its own like a stick or cone.
Is it safe to burn indoors?
Yes, when used with proper charcoal, a heat-safe burner, and good ventilation — never leave it burning unattended, and keep it away from children, pets, and flammable materials.
