    Great value for money & lasting smell.

    I was surprised with how many incense come in this packet. It would actually make a great gift because they are individually boxed. They smell lovely when you open the packet. I am not normally a fan of incense fragrance because I don't like the potent aroma. I chose vanilla I thought it would be a…

    Long lasting authentic scent. Really like this product.

    I have always bought and used sandalwood incense sticks over the years but by far the Stamford product is easily my best buy. This is the second time I've purchased this product and have to say I'm really happy with it. The smell is authentic sandalwood and not overly strong like some other incense…

    From Bombay with love

    Love the smell of these sticks. It took me a while to find them, but I first came across them when visiting the restaurant Dishoom in Manchester. The scene struck me as soon as I walked into the restaurant - now I have the same effect in my home. Horses for courses and all that, but a big thumbs up…

    Best incense Sticks ever

    I decided to spend quite a lumpy sum on this box and I don't regret it. The great thing is that I can give away a few small packs as gifts to my family + have plenty left for myself (the packs are sealed). The smell is delicious, yet not overwhelming and it leaves the room smelling nice for several…

    I was worried

    Lots of reviews saying they don't smell like real Nag Champa. Mine came cut open too so I expected the worst but as someone that's grown up with Nag Champa constantly burning in my home (34 years) They smell exactly like Nag Champa, they burn well. I can't see the issue, I've burnt Nag Champa that…

    The aroma from these are Lush!

    From Stanford, these incense sticks last around 35 minutes per burn. The aroma is relaxing and a lot less stringent than other scents. I've used Nag Champa Sticks before but these beat them hands down. There are 20 sticks per box and the 6 pack box contains 120 Sticks and cost less than £7 whereas…

    Stamford Floral incense

    Back in the late 70s/early 80s, I was a huge fan of Spiritual Sky incense. Sadly, they became more difficult to find in the UK. Govinda were another reliable brand, but more recently, the joss sticks on offer have been pretty mediocre, all smelling quite samey, and being quite smoky. I tried Satya…

A few things often kept alongside this piece.

About this product

The Protection blend
  • The blend is named Protection, a word to hold while setting an intention at the start or close of the day.
  • The black coated sticks and deep red tips give the ritual a simple, atmospheric look before the first curl of smoke rises.
  • It suits an entrance hall, meditation corner, reading space, or any place where you want a more considered mood.
  • The hexagonal pack is clean and compact, with blue motifs across the white box.
Paste on bamboo

Each stick is built around a bamboo core with a special paste, typically made from a mixture of herbs. The format is classic and practical: a slender stick that burns steadily in a suitable holder, leaving a soft trail of ash as the fragrance moves through the room.

How to burn it safely

Light the coated tip and let it catch, then gently blow out the flame so the end glows. Place the plain end into a heat-resistant incense holder or ash catcher, away from draughts, fabrics and open windows.

Use in a ventilated room and never leave burning incense unattended. Let the ash cool fully before clearing it away.

Indian incense, everyday intention

Made in India, this style of bamboo-cored incense uses scent to mark a shift in atmosphere. The word ‘protection’ gives this pack its symbolic focus: a simple theme to hold while lighting it. Many people use incense to frame a threshold moment, before meditation, after tidying a room, or when moving from the busyness of the day into something quieter.

Pack details

This hex pack contains 20 incense sticks.
