The magic fragrance of this natural incense is based on old customs, traditions and the belief that every plant or aroma has its own magical purpose. It is like a witch recipe, where each plant and its aroma have a very important aromatherapic and magic function.

Frankincense: The plant was named after the French word “franc”, meaning “luxurious”. Frankincense has long been used for producing incense. Frankincense (Boswellia) incense was one of the presents of the Three Kings to baby Jesus. In Ancient Greece frankincense resin was burned on altars and in temples, because it slows down and deepens breathing, which helps to calm down and immerse in prayer and meditation. The smell of frankincense calms and soothes, it is used during meditations even today. 

Juniper: Since ancient times juniper has been used to protect from and ward off evil spirits. The energy of the burning plant helps to develop the personality’s consistence and perseverance, the ability to distinguish lies and fight them easily. It protects the aura form aggression, helps to quickly find a proper way from any difficult situation. It also helps to avoid self-projected destructive irritation, gain the deserved authority, and develops such qualities as nobleness, grace, etc. This aroma has rejuvenating qualities. 

Sandalwood: its aroma harmonizes and calms, helps to reduce stress and turmoil, is a perfect mood booster for people suffering from depression, fears, and everyday problems, helps in cases of nervous breakdown or anxiety. Eastern cultures believe that this aroma is particularly attractive to various deities, thus sandalwood incense is often used during meditation, sandalwood is used to build temples and sculptures of gods and prophets. 

Nards: the smell of nards is believed to help fight depression, especially when it is caused by a person’s low self-esteem. To a self-loathing person nards return the proper self-perception, integrity and graciousness. For thousands of years the valuable nards were brought by caravans through Silk Routes from Nepal, Himalaya to Egypt. Egyptologists found it in Cleopatra’s ointment jars, it was glorified in Solomon’s “Song of Songs”, described in gospels by John, Matthew and Mark. The evangelists tell a story of an unknown woman who anoints Jesus’s hair with expensive nards oil from an alabaster jar before the Last Supper.
