Palo Santo Sticks 50g, 5-8 Sticks Green Tree

Light the tip and the pale wood gives way to a sweet, resinous smoke, soft enough for a quiet room and distinct enough to make a moment feel intentional. These palo santo sticks are made for a small daily ritual: before meditation, after tidying a space, or when you want scent to slow the pace of the evening.

Sweet wood smoke for a slower pause

• The scent is warm, woody and gently resinous, with a clean sweetness that sits lightly in the air.
• Each stick is a simple piece of natural wood, so knots, grain and uneven edges are part of its character.
• It suits quiet corners, meditation spaces and after-dinner rooms where incense might feel too strong.

The scent as it warms

Palo santo has a distinctive fragrance that comes alive only when the wood is heated. It starts as dry wood smoke, then softens into something sweeter and more balsamic, the kind of scent that makes you notice your breath and the room around you.

How to burn it safely

Hold one end of the stick and light the other until it catches. Let it burn, then blow out the flame and allow the smoke to drift through the space.

Place the stick in a heatproof dish between uses. Keep it away from fabrics, draughts, children and pets, and never leave burning wood unattended.

Peruvian palo santo, gathered with care

Palo santo means ‘holy wood’ in Spanish, a name linked to the way the wood has been valued in South American ritual practice. In Peru, it is traditionally used as fragrant ritual smoke to mark a transition, clear the atmosphere of a room, or begin a contemplative moment. This pack is from Peru, and the harvest is locally checked, with wood taken from fallen trees rather than felled ones.

Size and pack details

This is a 50 g pack containing 5-8 palo santo sticks. The exact number varies because each natural piece differs in shape and weight.

Storage and care

Keep the sticks dry and store them away from damp rooms, as moisture makes natural wood harder to light. After use, let the tip cool fully before putting it back with the rest of the pack.

A thoughtful ritual gift

It makes a considered gift for someone who enjoys incense, meditation, yoga, or small home rituals. The scent is distinctive, but the format is simple and approachable.

Common questions

Can I relight the same stick?
Yes. Once it has cooled and there is enough wood left, the same stick can be relit for another ritual.

Is palo santo the same as incense?
No. Incense is usually a prepared blend shaped into a stick or cone. Palo santo is the fragrant wood itself, burned directly.

Why does the stick count vary?
The pack is filled by weight, and natural sticks are not identical. Thicker pieces weigh more, so the final count can differ from pack to pack.
