HEM Hexagonal Incense - Dragons Blood
Dragon's Blood opens deep and resinous, warm and a little smoky, with a darker, more dramatic edge than most incense. Light a stick in the evening and the room settles into something richer and slower, the kind of atmosphere that suits meditation, a quiet ritual, or an hour when you want your space to feel more distinctive.

About this product
What you'll notice
- A rich, resinous scent that leans warm rather than sweet, with a slightly smoky undertone.
- A bold, mystical character that gives a room more depth and drama than a lighter floral or citrus stick would.
- HEM's hexagonal tube is printed in deep reds and golds, with a coiled red dragon at each end of the pack.
- It sits comfortably with meditation, relaxation and spiritual rituals, or simply a quiet evening at home.
The scent: why it's called Dragon's Blood
The name is more romantic than literal. 'Dragon's blood' is the traditional name for a deep red resin, long used in incense and ritual across many cultures. The red colour and dark, balsamic warmth gave the scent its name, and this stick aims at that same character: resinous, warm and slightly smoky. The scent here is described as a fragrance profile, so expect the impression of the resin rather than a pure, single-ingredient burn.
From the HEM range
This one is made in India, a country with a long and layered incense tradition, where fragrance has been part of daily and ceremonial life for centuries.
How to burn it
Light the tip and let it flame for a few seconds, then blow it out so the end glows and releases a steady thread of smoke. Stand the plain end in a heat-resistant holder or ash catcher. Burn in a well-ventilated room and never leave it unattended.
What you get
One hexagonal tube of HEM Dragon's Blood incense sticks, packed and ready to use. You will need only a holder to catch the ash.
A considered gift
It suits anyone who loves a darker, warmer fragrance, or who keeps a quiet corner for meditation and reading. A tube slips easily into a card or a small gift set alongside a holder.

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerLemon 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

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerI 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.
