Incense & Incense Holders

Lighting incense is the cheapest way to make a room feel different. Strike a match, and the next twenty minutes are marked out as separate from the rest of the day.

Our collection covers lavender, jasmine, vanilla, frankincense, dragon's blood and traditional om and meditation blends, alongside carved wood, ceramic and brass holders. From $2.99, so you can try a scent without committing to it.

Lavender is where most people start and the safest choice before bed. Jasmine and vanilla are gentler and suit smaller rooms. Frankincense and dragon's blood are resinous and considerably stronger, wonderful in a well-ventilated space and overwhelming in a bathroom.

Incense pairs naturally with the rest of a wind-down: a crystal on the windowsill, a candle, twenty minutes where nothing is required of you. It also makes an easy gift, because it's small, inexpensive, and asks nothing of the person receiving it.

You'll need a holder. Ash falls as the stick burns, and it will mark a surface.

Choosing incense sticks

Lavender is the one people reach for before bed, and the safest starting point if you've never bought incense. Jasmine is sweeter and floral. Vanilla is warm and works well in a room you spend a lot of time in. Frankincense and dragon's blood are resinous and smoky, more traditional and much stronger. Sandalwood and om blends sit somewhere in the middle.

If you're unsure, start with lavender or vanilla. The resinous scents are wonderful and also the ones people most often find overwhelming in a small room.

Incense for meditation and winding down

The scent matters less than the signal. Lighting incense at the same point each day tells your brain something is starting: a meditation, a wind-down, the end of the working day. That's the same principle behind a bedtime routine, and it works for the same reason.

A stick burns for roughly twenty to thirty minutes, which is a convenient length for a practice or a bath.

Incense holders

You need one. Ash falls, and it will mark a surface. Our wooden holders in lotus, tree of life, flower of life and feather designs catch the ash along a channel and sit flat. The ceramic and brass burners suit thicker sticks and cones.

The backflow burner is a different thing entirely: cones designed so the smoke falls downward like water. More of an object than a tool, and the most given as a gift.

Burning incense safely

Use a proper holder on a heat-safe surface, keep it away from curtains and anything that might catch, and never leave a burning stick unattended. Open a window or crack a door, since incense is smoke and a closed room gets heavy quickly. Keep out of reach of children and pets, and take care around anyone with asthma or respiratory sensitivity.

Frequently asked questions

Which incense is best for relaxing?
Lavender is the most popular for winding down and the easiest starting point. Jasmine and vanilla are gentler and suit smaller rooms. Frankincense, sandalwood and dragon's blood are stronger and more traditional, and better in a well-ventilated space.
How long does an incense stick burn?
Roughly twenty to thirty minutes depending on thickness and airflow, which happens to be a useful length for a meditation, a bath or a wind-down before bed.
Do I need an incense holder?
Yes. Ash falls as the stick burns and will mark a surface. A holder catches it and keeps the stick stable. Wooden channel holders suit thin sticks, while ceramic and brass burners handle thicker ones and cones.
How do I burn incense safely?
Light the tip, let it flame for a few seconds, then blow it out so it glows. Use a proper holder on a heat-safe surface away from anything flammable, ventilate the room, and never leave it unattended. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
What is a backflow incense burner?
A burner designed for hollow cones, where the smoke sinks and flows downward like a waterfall rather than rising. It needs backflow cones specifically, which are different from ordinary incense cones.
Is incense safe for people with asthma?
Incense produces smoke, so it can irritate the airways. Anyone with asthma or respiratory sensitivity should be cautious, keep the room well ventilated, or choose an alternative like an essential oil diffuser or a wellness spray.
Do you ship incense to the US?
Yes. We ship to Canada, the United States and internationally from Kitchener, Ontario. Canadian orders arrive without surprise customs charges. Duties may apply outside Canada.
