Incense is a scent that we are all familiar with, it has a rich historical significance and can create a certain ambiance. However, not everyone realizes the benefits of burning incense inside their home, office, or garden. In this regard, let's explore six reasons why you should consider purchasing an incense burner.
Fragrances and aromas have the ability to evoke specific responses. They can be used to promote relaxation, aid in sleep, enhance concentration, stimulate creativity, boost motivation, and increase sexual desire. Additionally, there are various religious, aesthetic, and practical reasons to use fragrances.

Relax and unwind
Light a few incense and cozy up on the sofa with a cup of tea, a good book, and some relaxing music. Alternatively, you can run a warm bath and swap out candles for a few incense. The gentle fragrances will help you unwind and create a peaceful atmosphere, allowing you to take some time and distance yourself from the stresses of everyday life.
Frankincense, Sandalwood and Cedarwood are all ‘calming fragrances’, so work well for general relaxation.
Generosity and Mindfulness
Whether formal or informal, religious or aesthetic, you create good Karma by taking an incense stick and lighting it as an offering. A simple way to do something, without expectation of return. An act of generosity and letting go.
Make this a mindful activity and select an Incense Stick of high quality. Take time and pride in preparation, selecting your stick, incense bowl, and lighting materials. Light, ‘listen’ to the fragrance, and relax.
Stimulate creativity
A well-selected fragrance can be used to enhance your abilities, stimulate ideas, and improve mental performance. Aloeswood-based Incense is known for this as well as ‘uplifting’ fragrances such as Lemongrass, Citrus scents, Geranium, and Ylang-Ylang.
Air purification
Certain floral-based ingredients have antibacterial properties – such as the Nag Champas. Plus, Incense is an easy, quick, and accessible way to cover unwanted household smells like cooking, pets, damp clothes, etc. Cedar, Myrrh, and Citrus scents will ‘cleanse’ the air, leaving behind a freshness and a new beginning.
Increase sexual desire
Yes! Use fragrances such as Jasmine, Vanilla, and Rose to create a ‘get it on’ mood. We stock a very popular Romance Selection box of Luxury Indian Incense by Sacred Elephant for this very purpose. The mind is a powerful thing, readily activated by these aphrodisiac scents. Also, try Cinnamon to drive passion and loving moments.
Meditation
Incense is used widely in many religious practices to deepen attention, heighten senses, and uplift one’s spirit when practicing meditation. Traditionally, the passing of time was also measured by the burning of set-length incense sticks.
Sandalwoods and Lotus are used most frequently for meditation – but you choose what suits you best. One that transports you to the place you need to be, without taking over your thoughts.
