This ancient practice is trending, according to the NYT

Last weekend, the New York Times revealed that the ancient practice of burning incense is trending. Turns out that sales of the precious scent have soared during the pandemic, “offering a kind of escape, opening up increasingly claustrophobic spaces and rendering them, if only for a moment, beautifully unfamiliar.”

So today we’re serving up all kinds of gorgeous fragrances to fill your home with warmth – from our bestselling incense, back in stock from India and available in three intoxicating scents; to a candle bursting with grapefruit, patchouli, and vetiver; and a perfume that isn’t even a perfume, from the cheeky Christophe Laudamiel.

3. GIFTS

We’ve taken a new delivery of Montroi’s opulent Saffran Sandal incense sticks – thanks for your patience! A warm, woody, spicy scent that encapsulates the memory of iconic palaces in Jaipur, they are handmade by a community of women following an artisanal process that has been passed through generations since the times of the ancient silk route.

$50

4. BEAUTY

Beyl’s Firm & Revitalise eye cream has been specially formulated for men, to deeply moisturize the skin around the eyes, reducing the appearance of circles, puffiness, and wrinkles. We ask you this: who DOESN’T need that in their lives?

$68

5. CANDLES

Made by Casa Posta, the geniuses behind our signature petitgrain hand sanitizer, this giant candle burns with the delicious scent of grapefruit, patchouli, and vetiver. Its packaging is equally elegant – this beauty is hand poured in a heavy glass vessel using flat weave cotton wicks, and packaged in a 100% environmentally friendly box.

$90

6. FRAGRANCE

"Perfumer of the future" Christophe Laudamiel wanted to create a scent you could wear in places that forbid perfumes, or when you just don’t feel like smelling perfume but still enjoy smells. Make sense? This is the result. No Perfume is not a perfume – it’s the uncomplicated but delicious smell of wood, leather, and smoke. Nothing more. Nothing less.


$110
