'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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFrom the HEM range\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to burn it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight 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.
