Aromatherapy Intro & Safety
Whether you’re a beginner or advanced Aromatherapy lover, our Intro page covers all the essentials you need to know to get started. We also explain the simple safety rules and guidelines to safely use Essential Oils.
How to Use Essential Oils
Essential Oils can be used in a number of ways, from diffusing into the air, to adding to massage blends, inhalers or even Aroma Jewellery. We cover all of the popular methods with easy to follow instructions.
Incense Types and How to Use Them
There is more to Incense than the humble Incense Stick. Learn about exotic incense like Nepalese Rope, Tibetan Dhoop, Japanese Koh, waterfall-effect Backflow Cones and more – with simple instructions on how to burn each type.
Resin Incense Tutorial
Pure Resins like Frankincense or Copal can be burned on charcoal tablets – this page explains how resins work, with an easy to follow photo tutorial on how to burn it.
Smudging
Many indigenous tribes of the US and Canada traditionally perform a purification ritual known as ‘smudging’ to clear the atmosphere of negative vibrations and fill it with positive, uplifting energies. Learn how smudging works, and the common uses for each type of stick.
The Ingestion Question
We discuss the question of whether it’s safe to ingest, or swallow, pure Essential Oils, and why it’s best not to.
Chemical Free Cleaning
A comprehensive guide on using Essential Oils and other natural ingredients like Vinegar and Bicarb to safely and naturally clean your home. Plenty of simple recipes and tips included.

AQ HANDMADE ALL-NATURAL "OUDH" INCENSE CONES
We`ve just spent an afternoon packaging up the final stock of our all-natural handmade OUDH incense cones.
These cones were created specially for us, handmade in India by women, with no child labour (made by the same manufacturers as our ‘top tier’ AQ Handmade sticks),
The cones contain beautiful botanicals, resins and powders, and are completely charcoal free. They use a gorgeous base of makko powder and other natural botanicals, scented with natural essential oils, wood powders, resins, ground flowers and other exotic ingredients.
8 cones per $2.75 pack. Being entirely handmade (rather than ‘pressed’ into moulds), the cones all vary in size and shape.
Also available in Dragons Blood, Nag Champa and Sandalwood. You can find them all, along with our Handmade Nepalese Cones and premium Masala Sticks here:

If you enjoy using a few different incense types, an INCENSE BURNER BOX is the perfect solution.
While sticks or cones can be burned on simple ashcatchers or burners, some of the more exotic types need something a little more specialised. `
You can either have a purpose-made burner for your Japanese Morning Star, one with larger heat-proof holes your thicker Dhoop Sticks and a stand for your soft braided Nepalese Rope ...
OR
You can have one Burner Box that suits everything.
These boxes are different from the old standard `coffin` shaped stick burners - they have metal bars that you can rest any type of incense stick - standard Indian sticks, Rope, Japanese Koh or Dhoop. Air circulates around them as they burn, and once they`re finished the ash drops tidily into a tray below.
Some even have cone plates and incense storage included.
Perfect for any incense lover, or a beautiful gift when teamed with a pack of special incense or two.

SAL TREE RESIN (Indian Dammar)
$8.50 / 25g
The SAL TREE (Shorea robusta) is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae, which is native to South Asia, from the Himalayas, Myanmar to East Nepal, India and Bangladesh.
In Hindu tradition, the sal tree is said to be favoured by Vishnu; some cultures in Bengal worship Sarna Burhi, a goddess associated with sacred groves of Sal trees. Its name shala, shaal or sal, comes from Sanskrit for “house” which reflects its use for housing timber. In Nepal’s Kathmandu Valley, typical Nepali pagoda temple architecture has rich wooden carvings, and most of the temples are made of bricks and sal tree wood.
Sal Tree Resin, also known as sal dammar or Indian dammar, has a powerful but pleasant spicy, musky scent. It is used as an astringent in Ayurvedic medicine, and burned as incense in Hindu ceremonies. It is believed to promote connection to the world of the Divine, prayer and elevation, and an excellent accompaniment for meditation and breathing.

Our ETCHED BRASS SCREEN CENSER with LID is perfect for burning self-igniting charcoal discs for use with resin or wood incense
These lovely censers are made from solid brass. The base section has a removable screen that can be used facing upwards, or inverted to create a bowl shape to rest your charcoal or incense (or removed to use the bowl for burning cones or even as a small smudge bowl).
The burner can be used with lid either on or off, as both base and lid feature decorative star-shaped air holes for circulation.
Both pieces also have beautiful embossed decorations in a patterned floral design. The censer now also includes a wooden coaster to protect the surface below from heat.
The burner bowl is approx 75mm in diameter at the widest (the bowl is wider at the top than at the base, and the lid is slightly wider again). Height is approx 65mm from base to tip of lid. Charcoal tablets fit nicely in the base of the burner (add a little sand or earth to disperse the heat), or can also be burned on the inverted screen if you prefer more airflow (we recommend using TONGS to handle your charcoal for best access). Add your resin on top of the charcoal disc once lit (see below for instructions), or place resins or botanicals on the screen above for more subtle heat.
TIP: Add a layer of sand or earth to the base of the censer to insulate against the heat and protect the surface of your burner.
$32.95 each - they`re also part of our PREMIUM RESIN INCENSE KIT:

BACKFLOW INCENSE is all about Calm.
Backflow incense cones are different from standard cones - they have a hole at the base that goes almost through to the top of the cone and when the lit section reaches the hole, the smoke begins to flow DOWNWARD in a serene and tranquil waterfall.
They`re a beautiful choice for meditation, relaxation or mindfulness - Backflow is perfect for taking a moment to pause and enjoy the sensory aspects of both scent and imagery as the smoke gracefully flows over your backflow Burner.
They make a beautiful gift idea, too.
HOW TO USE?
Choose BACKFLOW INCENSE CONES rather than standard ones which won`t have the waterfall effect.
Then choose a BACKFLOW BURNER which has a stand or plate that the cone sits on, aligning the hole in the base of the backflow cone with a channel in the burner so that the smoke can flow over the burner design.
Place the cone on the stand, light for a moment until it`s well alight and then blow out the flame and allow it to smoulder. Smoke will flow from the TOP of the cone until the burning section reaches the internal hole, and then like magic, the smoke will begin to flow downwards and cascade over the burner.
Want to see some in action? See a simple little video we shot ourselves of the actual burners and cones that we stock:

YERBA SANTA: Also known as Holy Weed, Mountain Balm, Consumptive’s Weed, Gum Bush, Bear’s Weed, Sacred Herb or Sacred Weed, YERBA SANTA leaves are considered sacred in Native American and Spanish cultures.
As a smudge or incense, Yerba Santa has traditionally been used for protection, purification and setting boundaries, with a long history of use as an altar offering.
It is believed to be grounding and balancing, and can help with empowerment or courage, for grief or shyness, or the release of emotional pain.
In the US Southwest, Yerba Santa has also traditionally been used herbally for respiratory issues and healing powers. The scent is pleasant, earthy and uplifting.
