Palo Santo Copal Large Incense Sticks, 4 Sticks

• Palo Santo gives the blend its dry, woody character, with a calm, slightly sacred feel in the air.
• Copal adds a resinous depth, the kind of scent that feels warm, rounded and gently ceremonial.
• The smoke suits quiet corners: a reading chair, a meditation mat, or the table after dinner.
• It is a good choice if you like incense with a natural, earthy direction rather than a sweet floral one.
• The larger stick format gives the ritual a more generous presence in the hand and holder.

The blend centres on Palo Santo and copal, two aromatic materials often used in incense for their woody and resinous character. Nothing here needs dressing up: light it, let the smoke begin, and allow the scent to become part of the room rather than the whole story.

Light the coated tip, let it catch briefly, then blow out the flame so the end glows. Place the stick upright in a heat-resistant incense holder or ash catcher, away from curtains, shelves and draughts.

Burn incense in a ventilated space and never leave it unattended. Let the ash fall safely, then clear it once fully cool.

This incense comes from Peru, where Palo Santo is closely associated with the dry forests of South America. Its name means ‘holy wood’, a reference to the reverence around the tree and its distinctive scent. Copal has its own long place in ritual burning across parts of the Americas, valued for its resinous smoke and ceremonial atmosphere. Here, that context is best held lightly: a thoughtful fragrance for marking a transition, setting an intention, or making an ordinary room feel more considered.

The pack contains four large incense sticks with a total weight of 20 g.

A thoughtful gift for someone who enjoys incense, meditation, journalling, yoga, or a slower evening routine. The Palo Santo and copal pairing feels quietly distinctive, especially for those drawn to woody, resin-led scents.
