Papier d'Arménie Incense Paper

To use as incense, fold a single strip accordion-style, place it on a heat-resistant surface, and light the tip. Let it smolder slowly rather than burning it like a match; the paper should glow and release smoke without an active flame.

Yes, the strips are designed for dual use. You can place an unlit strip directly into a drawer or closet to impart a subtle, balsamic scent to your clothing and linens.

Papier d'Arménie is formulated with benzoin resin, which is traditionally used to neutralize odors rather than simply masking them. It is quite effective at clearing the air after cooking or managing lingering pet smells.

The scent throw is relatively gentle and typically lingers for a few hours in a standard-sized room. It is designed to create a comforting atmosphere rather than overpower a space with heavy fragrance.

The fragrance is warm, sweet, and resinous, anchored by notes of vanilla and balsamic benzoin. It has a classic, comforting quality that feels more like a traditional home fragrance than a modern synthetic candle.
