Gulessence Rose,Loban & Sandalwood Incense Dhoop Cones - Made from Cowdung & Temple Flowers | (Pack of 3)

Three boxes of Gulessence dhoop cones in rose, loban and sandalwood, made from cow dung and recycled temple flowers. This is the more traditional of the cone sets - loban and sandalwood are the two fragrances most used in Indian ritual, with rose as the lighter option for everyday.

Key Features

• Loban: resinous and heavy, the classic ritual scent
• Sandalwood: woody and grounding
• Rose: soft and floral for lighter days
• Charcoal-free 1.5 inch cones, hand-rolled
• Roughly 35-40 minutes of burn per cone
• Free ceramic plate

Ingredients

• Cow dung and recycled temple flowers
• Loban resin, jatamansi, nagarmotha, sugandh kokila, haubera
• Natural herbs and essential oils

How to Use

Place the cone on the ceramic plate, light the tip and blow out the flame. Loban builds quickly, so light it a few minutes before a puja begins rather than during it, and open a window afterwards.

FAQs

What exactly is loban?

Loban is benzoin resin, burnt in Indian homes and temples for generations. It smells balsamic and slightly sweet, quite different from a floral cone.

Is this set too strong for daily use?

Loban is. Rose and sandalwood from the same pack are fine every day, with loban kept for festival days and puja.

Can I mix a rose and a sandalwood cone together?

You can, though the sandalwood will lead. Burning them separately keeps each scent recognisable.
