Dry, sacred wood meets deep, resinous warmth. Light a stick of HEM Palo Santo Masala Myrrh and the room settles into something rich and slightly ceremonial, the sort of scent that suits a quiet evening or the first minutes of a meditation. It comes in HEM's slim hexagonal tube, black with gold lettering.
What you'll notice
Palo Santo gives the opening its dry, woody character, clean and a little sweet rather than smoky.
Myrrh adds the lower register: resinous, warm and grounding, the note that lingers once the first impression has passed.
Together they read as rich and unhurried, closer to a temple corner than a perfumed room.
The tube's front shows Palo Santo sticks on one side and golden myrrh resin on the other, a fair preview of the two scents inside.
The scent in context
Palo Santo, 'holy wood' in Spanish, is a fragrant wood long burned in South American traditions for its soft, sweet aroma. Myrrh is a resin that has been burned as incense since antiquity, prized for its balsamic depth. The two are paired in the masala style, in which sticks are made from a blend of aromatic powders rather than a single note. It is an old way of building incense that rewards a slow, layered scent.
How to burn it
Light the tip, let it flame for a few seconds, then blow it out so it glows. Stand the plain end in a heat-resistant holder with an ash catcher, in a ventilated room, and never leave it unattended.
Good moments for it
Evenings at home, a few quiet minutes before meditation or journaling, or a ritual of your own that wants a grounded, atmospheric backdrop. Its depth suits cooler, darker months particularly well.
A considered gift
It suits anyone who already burns incense, or who likes a warm, woody home fragrance. Pair it with a simple holder and it makes a thoughtful, easy present.
Common questions
Does it smell more of wood or resin?
Both are present. The wood leads with a dry, clean sweetness, while the myrrh gives it a warm, resinous base.
