Step into a calm, woodland sanctuary with every breath. This Forest Temple blend wraps the warm, resinous aroma of Palo Santo around the crisp, refreshing green notes of juniper, grounded by the rich depth of cedarwood, with just a hint of bright, uplifting bergamot. It’s like taking a slow, peaceful walk through a sun-dappled forest. Perfect for meditation, evening wind-downs, or creating a serene space in your home.
These incense cones are not only a joy to burn, they’re a sensory ritual you can craft yourself. Using dipropylene glycol (DPG) ensures the oils soak evenly into the cones, so the fragrance releases slowly and beautifully, filling your space with balanced, lasting aroma. Making your own cones also lets you personalize the scent, connect with your creations, and add a unique, handmade touch to your space or gifts.
