About this product

Soft vanilla, gently spiced by the masala base
  • The scent opens with vanilla’s creamy sweetness, then settles into a warmer incense character as the stick glows.
  • It suits slow evenings, reading, journalling, or the simple pause after a busy day.
  • The fragrance feels familiar and comforting, without needing a complicated note list.
  • Masala-style incense has more body than a very thin, perfume-only stick, giving the scent a rounded presence in the room.
  • Use it when you want a soft background atmosphere rather than a loud fragrance statement.
Hand-rolled with resins and plant material

These masala incense sticks are hand-rolled from resins and plant material, giving the stick its textured, traditional feel. The vanilla fragrance sits within that plant-based base, so the sweetness is carried by something earthy and warm.

Lighting your incense safely

Place the plain end of the stick into a heat-resistant incense holder or ash catcher. Light the coated tip, let it flame briefly, then blow it out so the end glows and releases smoke.

Burn in a ventilated space, away from curtains, papers and draughts. Never leave burning incense unattended, and allow ash to fall onto a safe surface.

Rooted in Karnataka incense craft

This incense is ethically produced in Karnataka, India, a region closely associated with Indian incense making. Masala incense is traditionally made by rolling aromatic materials into the stick itself, rather than simply dipping a blank stick in fragrance. The result is a slower, more tactile form of incense, shaped around scent, smoke and daily ritual. Vanilla, now loved across many fragrance traditions, brings a soft gourmand warmth that feels especially suited to home, rest and familiar routines.

Common questions

Does it need a special burner?
No special burner is needed, but it should be used with a heat-resistant incense holder or ash catcher that keeps the stick stable and catches the ash safely.
Is the scent very strong?
Vanilla is naturally full and recognisable, but incense strength also depends on room size, airflow and how many sticks are burned at once. Start with one stick in a ventilated room.

    Lemon Grass

    I absolutely LOVE the smell of lemon grass and these have not disappointed. I have one burning in my room and I'm sat in the garden but can still smell the lovely fragrance out here. They do burn for 30 odd minutes as described. I've bought some that burn down within minutes of lighting, so these are excellent. I would
