- Never leave a burning candle, incense or palo santo unattended. Keep it away from children, pets and anything that can catch fire.
- Burn on a heat-resistant holder or plate that catches ash and embers, in a room with some fresh air.
- Loose incense and resins burn on charcoal: set the charcoal on a layer of sand in a heat-resistant bowl and handle it with tongs. Charcoal and holders stay hot long after the smoke fades, so let them cool completely before touching or emptying.
- If you have asthma or are sensitive to smoke, use incense and palo santo with care, in a well-ventilated space.
- Candles: trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before each lighting. On the first burn, let a candle burn about one hour for every inch of its diameter, and never more than four hours at a time.
- Store incense, herbs and resins sealed, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight so the scent lasts.
- Stones: wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Each stone is unique in color and pattern.

Description
Bakhoor Botanical Incense — frankincense bark, warm and resinous
Bakhoor is the name for fragrant incense made from woods, resins and herbs, often scented with essential oils. Ours is made from frankincense bark and is burned in small amounts on hot charcoal.
Scent and character
Frankincense bark gives a deep, warm, resinous fragrance that fills a room and lingers. It is a welcoming, long-lasting home scent, and many people love it for a quiet evening or before meditation.
In tradition
Bakhoor has been part of Middle Eastern and Asian cultures for centuries. It is burned to welcome guests, scent the home and clothes, and accompany prayer, ceremony and quiet reflection, and in many traditions it is used in smoke cleansing rituals. We share this as culture; many people simply enjoy its warm, resinous fragrance.
