HEM Hexagonal Incense - Precious White Sage

Made in India Ships from the UK

Light the tip, let the flame settle, and a clean, herbal sage scent begins to drift through the room.

This is HEM's Precious White Sage in the hexagonal box, made in India.

    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…

    Lots of reviews saying they don't smell like real Nag Champa.

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

What you'll notice
  • The scent is herbal and fresh, closer to dried leaves than to flowers or resin, and it reads as clean rather than heavy.
  • It fits the small moments of a day: unwinding in the evening, setting up a meditation corner, or giving a room a calm, tidy-feeling backdrop.
  • The slim hexagonal box is printed in soft pearl-grey, white and purple, with a sage-leaf motif, and the name appears in both English and Spanish (Salvia Blanca).
  • It works as an everyday room fragrance as well as a ritual companion, so you don't need an occasion to burn it.
How to burn it

Light the coated tip and let it flame for a few seconds. Blow it out gently so the end glows and the smoke begins to curl up. Stand the plain end in a heat-resistant holder or ash catcher, on a stable surface away from fabric and paper.

Sticks of this kind usually burn for somewhere between thirty and sixty minutes, though this varies from one product to the next. Keep a window slightly open for fresh air and never leave burning incense unattended, especially around children and pets.

White sage and the tradition behind the scent

White sage (Salvia apiana) is a silvery-leaved plant of the American Southwest, and its leaves have long been burned in Indigenous traditions there. HEM is an Indian incense house, and this stick is a fragrance made in India with its own character. It should not be mistaken for a smudging bundle or for the practices that belong to those communities. We simply offer it as a pleasant herbal scent for your own quiet rituals.

HEM is one of India's best-known incense makers, with a long-standing range of hexagonal boxes that has become a familiar sight in shops and homes. The Precious line pairs plant-inspired scents with elegant, minimal packaging.

What's included

A hexagonal box of HEM Precious White Sage incense sticks, ready to light. You will need a holder or ash catcher to burn them safely.

A thoughtful small gift

The simple packaging and fresh, herbal character make it an easy present for someone who enjoys yoga, meditation or a calm corner at home. It also pairs well with a ceramic holder for a considered gift.

Common questions

Is this the same as a white sage smudge stick?
No. A smudge stick is a bundle of dried leaves. This is an incense stick with a white sage fragrance, made in India and burned on a holder.
Do I need a holder?
Yes. The sticks are not self-supporting, so stand them in a heat-resistant holder or ash catcher to catch the ash as they burn.
Is the scent strong?
It is a clear, herbal fragrance that fills a small room without feeling sweet or heavy. Opening a window a little keeps the air fresh while it burns.
