Slow burn ♡
Another test batch, working towards the new blend I’ve been tinkering with. I mentioned in my Instagram stories that the incense I’ve been making with my handmade tinctures has needed extra curing time, the scent becoming more anchored in the stick a week or so after drying.
It’s not something I’ve experienced with my other blends. I noticed it after giving an initial lacklustre test batch another go, some weeks after creating it.
It’s a subtle shift, but one that definitely impacts my assessment of how it’s developing.
This is the formulation process. Lots of back and forth and waiting time, testing and changing, until it clicks.
You can check out the natural incense I make in my shop.
Everything I offer is handmade by me in my home studio – including this sweet little burner x
