Champa, Golden Nag and Indian incense tradition
Champa incense is closely associated with Indian incense making, where sweet floral blends have long been used in temples, homes and meditation spaces. In contemporary practice, it is often chosen to mark the shift from ordinary activity into a more considered moment: lighting the cone, watching t…
