Incense (Latin: incendere, "to burn") is composed of aromatic biotic materials, which release fragrant smoke when burned. The term incense refers to the substance itself, rather than to the odor that it produces. Many religious ceremonies and spiritual purificatory rites employ incense, a practice that persists to this day. Incense is also used in medicine and for its aesthetic value. The forms taken by incense have changed with advances in technology, differences in the underlying culture, and diversity in the reasons for burning it. From Wikipedia under the

Asked by ! - Wed Aug 26 20:01:55 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Incenses are made of herbal materials mixed with charcoal (so they burn evenly), resins (to enable them to hold a shape), and sometimes soaked with essential oils. You can use powdered herbs on a charcoal (NOT a briquet from the grill - they sell charcoals specially made for this in religious stores) as well as cones or sticks. Wal-mart might sell cinnamon incense, but make sure it's made with natural oils and herbs instead of a cheap punk soaked in synthetic fragrance oil.

I've noticed that there appears to be a difference in both scent and quality of the burn when lighting the incense and leaving the flame to self-extinguish. Any suggestions on a good way of lighting? Asked by Robert J - Thu Jan 10 02:24:50 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. When I light incense, I let it burn for a little bit(like ten seconds) and then blow it out until smoke starts rising. Then, it burns! I always let it self-extinguish. Answered by Tzomei - Sat Jan 12 18:54:31 2008 Can anyone give me step by step directions on how to make smoking incense bottles?
Q. I want to make the ones where there is no drilling involved. I have seen some online where they are using a ring to hold the incense stick in. I will also need tips on the decorating of these bottles...such as paints, stickers, or stencils that can be used on glass bottles. Asked by foxiegixxergurl2004 - Sat Oct 7 17:52:48 2006 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. only ones I have seen you have to drill an air hole...but otherwise you get a jump ring...like at ace hardware..a keyring, put the incense stick in that and put it into the bottle Decorate the bottle with paint or acid etching or stencils...but without an airhole at the bottom of the bottle it will usually go out quickly Answered by kathy n - Tue Oct 10 03:00:32 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Incense" See also:
