What it is

An incense stick is a fine bamboo stick coated in a paste of woods, resins and scent. Light the tip, let the flame go out, and it glows slowly for half an hour or more, scenting the room.

Why people choose it

  • A scent that stays Each stick glows for half an hour or more and leaves the room scented after it has gone out.
  • Many scents to keep Woods, resins, flowers and spices: easy to keep a few for different moods and seasons.
  • Many evenings in a pack One stick an evening, and a pack lasts for weeks.
  • Gentle smoke Lit in an airy room, the scent stays and the smoke clears.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Light the tip, let it catch for a few seconds

  2. 2

    Blow the flame out. It should glow, not burn

  3. 3

    Stand it in a holder on a heat-safe surface; let it burn down or press the tip into sand to stop it

Care: Ventilate the room. Never leave it burning unattended. Ash on a heat-safe holder.

    Great value for money & lasting smell.

    I was surprised with how many incense come in this packet. It would actually make a great gift because they are individually boxed. They smell lovely when you open the packet. I am not normally a fan of incense fragrance because I don't like the potent aroma. I chose vanilla I thought it would be a…

    Long lasting authentic scent. Really like this product.

    I have always bought and used sandalwood incense sticks over the years but by far the Stamford product is easily my best buy. This is the second time I've purchased this product and have to say I'm really happy with it. The smell is authentic sandalwood and not overly strong like some other incense…

    From Bombay with love

    Love the smell of these sticks. It took me a while to find them, but I first came across them when visiting the restaurant Dishoom in Manchester. The scene struck me as soon as I walked into the restaurant - now I have the same effect in my home. Horses for courses and all that, but a big thumbs up…

    Best incense Sticks ever

    I decided to spend quite a lumpy sum on this box and I don't regret it. The great thing is that I can give away a few small packs as gifts to my family + have plenty left for myself (the packs are sealed). The smell is delicious, yet not overwhelming and it leaves the room smelling nice for several…

    I 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. I can't see the issue, I've burnt Nag Champa that…

    The aroma from these are Lush!

    From Stanford, these incense sticks last around 35 minutes per burn. The aroma is relaxing and a lot less stringent than other scents. I've used Nag Champa Sticks before but these beat them hands down. There are 20 sticks per box and the 6 pack box contains 120 Sticks and cost less than £7 whereas…

    Stamford Floral incense

    Back in the late 70s/early 80s, I was a huge fan of Spiritual Sky incense. Sadly, they became more difficult to find in the UK. Govinda were another reliable brand, but more recently, the joss sticks on offer have been pretty mediocre, all smelling quite samey, and being quite smoky. I tried Satya…

About this product

The sweet frankincense mood
  • The fragrance opens with the familiar depth of frankincense, softened by a sweeter edge.
  • It suits slow transitions: after work, before meditation, or while the room settles for the evening.
  • The plant-based format keeps the focus on the resinous scent rather than heavy visual drama.
  • The cream packaging, leafy pattern and warm yellow accents give it a clean, botanical feel on a shelf.
  • A good choice when you want incense that feels warm, composed and gently ceremonial.
Plant-based incense sticks

These incense sticks are part of the Plant Based Incense Sticks range.

How to burn them safely

Light the tip of one stick, let it catch, then blow out the flame so the end glows. Place the plain end in a suitable incense holder or ash catcher, away from draughts, fabrics and anything flammable.

Burn in a ventilated room and never leave incense unattended.

Frankincense in scent tradition

Frankincense is one of the classic resin scents, long used in ritual, ceremony and home fragrance across many cultures. Its character is often described as warm, balsamic and quietly atmospheric, which is why it appears so often in incense. Here, the sweetness softens that resinous depth, making it easy to use as a small daily marker: lighting a stick, opening a window slightly, and letting the room take on a more considered tone.

Size and details

This pack weighs 50 g. The scent is Sweet Frankincense, from the Plant Based Incense Sticks range.

A thoughtful small gift

It makes a gentle gift for someone who enjoys incense, meditation corners, evening routines or a beautifully scented home. Pair it with a simple holder for a complete little ritual set.

Resonates with Frankincense

Common questions

Do I need an incense holder?
Yes. Use a heat-resistant incense holder or ash catcher that keeps the stick stable and collects falling ash.
