What is incense resin?

These different incenses are obtained from the resins of certain shrubs, such as boswellia for olibanum and commiphora myrrha for myrrh. They are used for fumigation on dedicated charcoal tablets. Our round metal incense holders and censers (which are also ideal for our incense powders, sandalwood shavings and bulk sage) are ideal for this purpose. Resins are also available in powder form.

How to burn resin, powder or shavings?

  • Grab your charcoal pellet with a pair of tongs to avoid burning yourself.
  • light your coal with a candle, lighter or match until it "crackles". Here: all our candles for rituals and ceremonies
  • place your charcoal on a suitable incense holder, such as a round metal holder, a stone censer or an ashtray designed for this purpose
  • then place a few pieces on the central part of your charcoal pellet
  • Then let the smoke take effect, or take your censer into the rooms you wish to purify.

It's also possible to burn without charcoal, using an essential oil diffuser and a tealight. To do this, remember to pour a little vegetable oil into your diffuser before lighting your candle to prevent the container from splitting under the effect of the heat. This method and appropriate if you want to release less dense smoke, as charcoal produces a lot of it.

You can also burn the powder directly. Simply make a small mound in your incense-holder. Then light the top, let the flame burn for a few seconds and blow (very) gently on it until it goes out, releasing its fragrance.

History of incense

Originally, incense was used in the form of resin collected by incising the bark of the boswellia serratamore commonly known as the "incense tree". Incense was first used in ancient Egypt for mummification and medicinal purposes. These were raw, unworked incenses. Their use continued beyond the Greek and Roman worlds, as part of sacred rites. The resin is still used today in incense burners for religious ceremonies. Incense is mentioned more than twenty times in the Bible and the Koran, and was one of the gifts offered by the Magi to Jesus. It has been used for over 5,000 years in Ayurvedic medicine for, among other things, its anti-inflammatory properties, which are of growing interest to Western medicine.
