Its leaves are dried before their scent is drawn out, and that drying is what brings out the deep, woody, slightly musky note the fragrance is known for. In incense it has long been valued for exactly this earthy depth, which is why it pairs so naturally with unhurried, reflective moments. The green and yellow of the pack, patterned with soft leaf shapes, hints at the plant behind the scent.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eThe making\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHEM is a well-known incense brand with its roots in India, and these sticks are an Indian-made product. The hexagonal pack, which holds the sticks in a slim, tall box, is HEM's signature format, easy to keep in a drawer, on a shelf or beside your incense holder.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to burn it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLight the tip, let it flame for a few seconds, then blow it out so the end glows and a thin ribbon of smoke begins to rise. Stand the plain end in a heat-resistant holder or ash catcher, and keep it on a stable surface away from anything that could catch. Sticks like these usually burn for somewhere between thirty minutes and an hour, though it varies from one item to the next, so check the listing for this pack. Burn in a ventilated room and never leave incense unattended.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hexagonal pack of HEM Patchouli incense sticks, ready to use.
