Apple Wood doesn’t burn as traditional incense sticks or cones, it requires a very high heat to ignite and can then be used in a similar way to a smudge stick. We recommend igniting it from a fire or using matches carefully. A lighter will not ignite the wood due to it having a lower flame temperature.

Rest the wood in an open flame and blow gently to fuel the glowing embers, place in the lid of the open tin or in a heat proof dish and position in the heart of your home to allow the fragrance to travel throughout the entire space. This will burn for a 10-15 seconds and the smoke will distribute to fill your space with the aroma.
