Al Oud Incense Stick – Oud Hamra

1. Place Stick in Holder

Begin by selecting a stable and heat-resistant incense holder or stand. This is important to catch the ash as the stick burns, keeping your space clean and safe. Insert the thinner wooden end of the incense stick into the hole or slot provided in the holder. Make sure it stands upright or at a slight angle to allow the smoke to rise freely. Place the holder on a flat surface, away from any flammable materials, fans, or drafts. Creating a dedicated spot for your incense helps build a calm, intentional space for relaxation or ritual.

2. Light the Tip

Once your incense stick is securely placed in the holder, light the tip of the stick using a lighter, candle, or match. Hold the flame to the tip for about 5–10 seconds until it catches fire. You'll see a small flame and the tip will begin to glow. This step activates the fragrant materials in the incense, allowing the aroma to develop. Be cautious while lighting and avoid holding the flame too close for too long, as this can cause the stick to burn too quickly.

3. Blow Out the Flame

After the tip has caught fire and is glowing, gently blow out the flame. You should now see a soft, glowing ember and a thin trail of fragrant smoke rising from the stick. This smoke is what carries the aroma throughout your space. If no smoke appears, relight the stick and repeat the process. Never leave a burning incense stick unattended, and make sure it is burning safely away from children or pets.

4. Enjoy the Aroma

Allow the incense to burn naturally and fill your space with its calming fragrance. Incense sticks typically burn for 30–60 minutes, depending on their size and thickness. Use this time to meditate, pray, relax, or simply enjoy a peaceful ambiance in your home or workspace. For best results, burn incense in a well-ventilated room and always extinguish it completely once you're done. Regular use of incense can help create a serene and aromatic environment in your daily life.
