Chakras and the Ritual of Scent

In the classical traditions of yoga and Ayurveda, chakras are the seven energy centers believed to exist along the body. Fiore D'Oriente has academically and traditionally selected the scents, colors, and keywords corresponding to each chakra to develop an incense series suitable for creating a meditative or yoga space. Designed for continuous use, these fragrances can be incorporated into your daily practice.

The Sahasrara Chakra and the Tradition of the Seventh Chakra

Sahasrara, meaning "thousand-petaled lotus" in Sanskrit, is the seventh chakra in the yoga tradition. It is believed to be located at the crown of the head and has been associated with themes of spirituality, harmony with the cosmos, and integration. This chakra is cherished during deep meditation, ritual celebrations and gratitude, and on significant mornings.

Scent Profile and Ingredients

A luxurious and sacred fragrance blended from three types of frankincense resin: Boswellia carterii, Boswellia rivae, and Boswellia frereana. By combining different facets of "the king of resins," frankincense, which has been burned in churches, temples, and mosques since ancient times, the resulting scent profile aligns with the Sahasrara chakra's theme of "harmony to the highest order." This is a honey incense made with Machilus thunbergii resin extract, charcoal, and bamboo.

How to Use

  1. Place the incense stick in an incense holder and light the tip.
  2. Gently blow out the flame and enjoy the fragrance of the rising smoke. Use to create an atmosphere before or after meditation, yoga, or breathing exercises.
  3. Please use on a heat-resistant surface, such as a smudge plate. Each stick burns for approximately 60-80 minutes.
