Olfactory Experience: Woodsy, warm, and enveloping. Rich with notes of citrus and pine.

Palo Santo use as an incense originates from Indigenous peoples in Central and South America. Peruvians would harvest the fallen branches and twigs of the Bursera graveolens tree and burned pieces, much like incense, in order to spiritually purify energy. Shamans used Palo Santo to offer grounded and clearing energy. It is a non-endangered species in the Burseraceae family, a close relative of frankincense.

Sustainability:

Bursera only sources trees that have died naturally and have been resting on the forest floor for several years. Their ethical SERFOR-certified harvesting process ensures that no living trees are ever cut down, period. Not only does this help preserve Palo Santo, it leads to the potent, effective, and premium quality that is expected of all Bursera products.
Tree planted with every order.

INGREDIENTS AND MATERIALS

100% SERFOR-certified sustainably sourced Peruvian Palo Santo (5 sticks).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Light the end of the stick until there is a small flame. It may take up to a minute of holding a flame to it so we recommend using a candle and holding the stick at a downward angle.

Once lit, hold upright and let the Palo Santo burn for 10-20 seconds. Then blow out and spread the fragrant smoke through your home by painting the air with the stick. The smoke will continue for about a minute then cease. Afterwards place your stick in a Palo Santo holder or fireproof bowl.

Each stick can be relit several dozen times and Palo Santo ash can be sprinkled on top of plant-soil as a natural nutrient boost.
