In summer, happiness can be wonderfully simple: warm air, the scent of fruit and soft evening light. Incense fits those moments beautifully. The Chakra collection, in colourful tubes, brings both fragrance and atmosphere. These classic incense sticks can accompany a daily ritual or meditation, or simply a moment when you feel like enjoying their scent.
We often associate incense with woody notes such as palo santo, white sage, cedar or sandalwood. Yet it can have a fresher, fruitier character too. The Chakra collection offers seven fragrances: mint, orange, lavender, strawberry, lemon, blueberry and blackberry. Each is associated with a chakra, with its colour and scent symbolising an area of life, from creativity and relationships to intuition and inner calm.
Light a stick and watch the smoke drift slowly upwards. Enjoy it in the morning, at the end of the day or whenever you want that distinctive incense atmosphere.
Orange is juicy and warm, with a gentle smoky note. It is richer and more sensual than a sweet-shop orange scent. In chakra traditions, it is associated with the sacral chakra, pleasure and creativity. Summer offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy the moment.
Mint tells a different story: fresh, green and cool, with the characteristic smoky undertone of incense. In this collection, it represents the heart chakra, openness and connection. A lovely choice for a quiet pause, alone or with someone else.
The scents are different, yet both suit August: long days, time on the terrace and spontaneous gatherings. Sometimes those moments stay with us for months. Perhaps even until May?
What do August's juicy orange and refreshing mint have to do with May? I would love to hear your theories 😊
