American Heritage Mesquite Incense Bricks

Yes, you should use a heat-resistant incense burner or dish designed for bricks or resins. Because these bricks are solid, they require a stable surface that can handle direct heat without damaging your furniture.

Each brick is designed for a slow, steady burn that typically lasts between 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the airflow in your room. They are meant to release fragrance gradually rather than all at once.

Mesquite has a naturally robust, earthy profile, so it can be quite potent in very small, enclosed spaces. If you find the scent too strong, we recommend using it in a larger, well-ventilated area or burning it for shorter intervals.

These bricks are crafted to capture the authentic, woody essence of the desert southwest. They rely on the natural aromatic properties of the mesquite wood rather than synthetic perfumes, resulting in a cleaner, more grounded scent.

While you can extinguish a brick, the quality of the scent may diminish upon relighting. For the best experience, it is recommended to let the brick burn completely through once it has been ignited.
