Nazareth Incense Sticks - Cardamom, sandlewood, water lily, vanilla, amber, tonka bean, violets, charred peppercorns, maple leaf, saffron
We named this incense blend after the home of the Holy Family, since we saw in this mix of fragrances symbols of each member of the Holy Family. In the woody and earthy tones of the sandlewood and tonka bean, we see Saint Joseph, a carpenter and hard worker whose work was sweet before the Lord. The lilies and violets stand for the joys and sorrows of the Blessed Mother. Amber, is the “fruit of the tree” that is burned in Divine worship, and in this blend a symbol of Our Lord. A hint of saffron, a spice mentioned in the Song of Songs as a beautiful fragrance, gives a flowered honey scent. It is in union with the three members of the Holy Family, in their hidden life at Nazareth, that we go about our daily lives of work and prayer, humbly fulfilling the will of God as it is put before us moment by moment.
These incense sticks are crafted with scents that are free of mutagens, carcinogens, pthalates, toxins, and parabens. Instead of Dipropylene Glycol the fragrances used have a naturally derived product called Propanediol. Made with 100% natural plant essences and essential oils.
Incense Stick Size: 9.5" total length; 8" length of material that burns. Incense sticks are 100% natural.
Burn Time: 60-80 minutes burn time per stick, provided proper burn instructions are followed (draft-free area, not smoldering too hot/fast).
Incense Sticks can be snuffed out and re-lit for multiple uses if desired. Simply press the smoldering end against a solid surface that won't burn, like ceramic or concrete, or snip off the smoldering end with a pair of scissors or a wick trimmer. Ensure there is no remaining color in the stick before leaving. Do not leave incense sticks burning unattended.
