What it is

An incense cone is incense pressed into a small cone. Light the tip, blow out the flame and it smoulders from the top down, scenting the room for about twenty minutes. A backflow cone has a hole in its base, so the smoke falls instead of rising.

Why people choose it

  • A scent in twenty minutes One cone scents a room quickly, then it is done.
  • Smoke that falls On a backflow burner the smoke runs down like water, slow and quiet to watch.
  • Easy to keep a few Woods, resins, flowers and spices: a pack of each for different evenings.
  • Small and tidy The ash stays in the holder as a small grey cone.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Stand the cone on a heat-safe holder

  2. 2

    Light the tip, let it catch, then blow out the flame

  3. 3

    Let it smoulder down; a backflow cone goes on a backflow burner

Care: Use a heat-safe holder. Never leave a lit cone unattended. Ventilate the room.

    Fabulous smell

    I picked these up along with another scent for my backflow incense burner. The cones that came with it left this old cigarette smell and didn't last long. After checking out some reviews, I went with these Stamford ones and they didn't disappoint. The scent is amazing and they burn way longer than…

    Nicest Smell

    This is the nicest smelling one of the series by Stamford, in my personal opinion, and it gives off a nice smell that I only can really describe as flowery, as of roses I guess, and a really nice perfume-y scent of a very good perfume. This one is definitely the best one by far and is a joy to the…

    Burn well with a subtle scent

    These cones burn well and easily, creating a subtle scent. The room smells good, but it doesn't have the strong incense burn smell. It is more a pleasant background aroma that you certainly notice, but not the strong overpowering scent from some incense. I personally prefer the "quiet" scent from…

    Beautiful smell - White Sage & Lavender

    Love it! Smells delightful. Bought one to try and will definitely be buying more. White sage is one of my favourite scents so partnered with Lavender it's perfect. Not as long lasting as I would want but decent enough for the scent and it fills the room nicely. Will try others but this one is a…

    Jumbo Golden Nag Back Flow Incense Cones - Heady Fragrance

    A very heady fragrance for use in a burner, the smoke it emits makes the burner look like it's flowing with steam. Just what I needed for a back flow burner to get a better effect. All the cones are perfect in shape and the heady scent is really powerful.

    Smell amazing

    These are my favourite incense cones. They are backflow cones and they smell amazing. This is my favourite scent but they all smell phenomenal. They are a good size and last longer that lots of other brands. Great value for money too.

    Nice scent and even burn

    These cones come in a nicely presented triangle box with foil lining, and they burn really evenly. Like most incense, they can also be used to lightly fragrance drawers and other enclosed spaces, if you're looking for other uses.

    Good variety and quality of scents.

    The scent is traditional and authentic. Long lasting and natural, unlike other insensence with colours and dyes. These burn and dont leave a horrible residue of scent and smoke like other bfc. Nice variety of scents too.

    Best quality Incense Cones I've bought so far

    I've bought Incense Cones from various companies but Stamford produces the best quality in durability and fragrance. Jasmine being my favourite fragrance, have re-ordered many times. Would highly recommend to anyone.

    Good scent, unreliable burn

    It smells great but sadly the last pack I bought does not burn, no matter how many matches I light. They are extremely frustrating! They have bits of wood or something in them and they go out after about a minute.

A few things often kept alongside this piece.

About this product

The falling-smoke effect
  • Made for a dedicated backflow incense burner, where the smoke sinks and gathers in soft layers.
  • The effect comes from the cone’s hollow channel, which lets cooled, denser smoke fall instead of rising straight up.
  • It turns incense into something you watch as well as smell, a small piece of moving atmosphere for a shelf, altar or side table.
  • The slow cascade is especially striking in still air, away from open windows, fans and strong draughts.
Frankincense and myrrh in the room

The scent is built around two old resin notes. Frankincense brings a dry, earthy depth, while myrrh adds a warmer, softly sweet tone. Together they feel ceremonial without being sharp, the kind of fragrance people often choose for reflective evenings, meditation practice or a settled home ritual.

Charcoal-free incense from India

These cones are charcoal-free and made in India as part of the Biofresh backflow incense cone range. They are formed for backflow use, so the shape and inner channel matter as much as the fragrance itself.

How to use them well

Place one cone on a backflow burner, aligning the hole in the 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 allow the cone and burner to cool before touching or cleaning. A little residue is normal with backflow incense, so wipe the burner after use to keep the smoke path clear.

Why these resins feel so ritual-led

Frankincense and myrrh have been valued for centuries in spiritual, ceremonial and contemplative settings, especially for their deep resinous aroma and the way their smoke marks a pause in ordinary time. In modern home ritual, that meaning is often quieter: lighting a cone before journalling, sitting in meditation, or closing the day with a few minutes of still watching. The backflow burner adds a visual layer, making the smoke part of the practice rather than simply a background scent.

Pack size and details

Each pack contains 40 backflow incense cones and weighs 100 g. Scent: frankincense and myrrh. Origin: India.

A thoughtful gift for quiet spaces

This suits someone who enjoys incense, meditation spaces or atmospheric home décor. Pair it with a backflow burner for a complete ritual gift, especially for a housewarming, winter evening present or a small self-care gesture.

Common questions

Can I use these with a normal incense holder?
They are designed for a backflow burner. A standard holder may let the cone burn, but it will not create the downward waterfall effect.
Can standard incense cones be used in a backflow burner?
No. Standard solid cones do not have the hollow channel needed for the smoke to sink through the burner.
How long does one cone burn?
Backflow cones typically burn for around 10 to 20 minutes, depending on air flow, burner design and the cone itself.
