Built like a perfume, with top, heart and base notes: wooded garden air lifted by nutmeg and tangy mandarin, over two sandalwoods. The pack names muscade, mandarine and bois de santal.
Key Features
- Five ingredients. 100% natural, and all of them named.
- Hand-rolled. Made in the South-West of France.
- Vegan. No animal fats.
- Quantity. 25 sticks per box, at 45 minutes of burn each.
Pūrē Standard
- Five ingredients, all of them named. Sandalwood powder, red sandalwood powder, nutmeg powder, guar gum and water. That is the whole list, and it is the reason we brought it in: almost nothing else in this category will tell you what is in the stick.
- The spice is the actual spice. Ground nutmeg and two sandalwoods doing the work, rather than fragrance sprayed onto a blank bamboo core, which is how most incense is made.
- Guar gum as the binder. A plant gum doing the job that synthetic binders usually do, with water as the only other input.
- Forty-five minutes per stick. Roughly double a standard stick, so a box of 25 lasts.
- Handmade, so batches vary. Expect slight differences in appearance and burn. We would rather that than uniformity.

Our Take
A quiet one: nutmeg, mandarin and red sandalwood, less citrus cleaner and more wooded garden in autumn. Hand rolled in France with nothing synthetic in it. For when you want the room to smell considered rather than scented.
