About this product
Smoke that falls like water
- The hollow channel in each cone lets cooled smoke travel downwards, creating the waterfall effect backflow burners are known for.
- It is best enjoyed where you can actually watch it: a side table, meditation corner, or quiet shelf away from draughts.
- Unlike stick incense, the pleasure is visual as well as fragrant. The smoke becomes part of the room’s atmosphere.
- Soft lighting brings out the movement beautifully, especially against a darker ceramic or stone-style burner.
Patchouli, deep and earthy
Patchouli has a grounded, earthy character with a warm, resinous feel. It is the kind of scent people often choose for evening rituals, yoga practice, meditation spaces, or a slow Sunday pause.
How to use it well
Place one cone on a suitable backflow burner, aligning the hollow base with the burner’s smoke channel. Light the tip, let it catch, then gently blow out the flame so the cone smoulders.
Use on a heat-resistant surface and keep away from draughts, loose fabrics and anything flammable. Allow the cone and burner to cool fully before clearing away ash or residue.
A modern incense ritual
Backflow incense is made for burners that guide smoke downwards rather than letting it simply drift up. The effect comes from temperature and density: as the smoke cools, it becomes heavier than the surrounding air and moves through the burner in slow swirls. In practice, it becomes a small act of attention, watching movement instead of a screen.
