Incense NOT just for Hippies!
Let's get it straight from the beginning. Incense is NOT just for hippies or meditating Buddhists. Just because it was around in the Sixties and used a lot by Hippies does not mean it is exclusive to their use. But, let me tell you something. Those hippies knew a thing or two and one of those things they knew was that incense was a great way to cover smells at festivals.
A great way to now fragrance the home, the use of incense, both sticks and cones, is becoming increasingly popular. Simple to use and give off a great fragrance. Choose from a myriad of fragrances.
Incense has come down through history as mans' quiet companion prompting his myriad pleasurable moods. Its nuanced aromas refresh and relax our senses of perception. Incense breathes inspiration. Cone incense is especially adapted for discretion, being easily burned in a small cone holder, to add subtle fragrance and freshness to your car or home. Choose the aroma that best suits your mood; fruits for refreshment, flowers for a pleasant air, woods for exoticism and fantasy notes just for plain fun.
From the most remote times, incense has been cherished for its exotic fragrance by the privileged few. The original aromatic resine was employed in the stately courts or ancient kings; it was the original gift of the 3 Magi. Prized for its medicinal properties, its ability to arouse a myriad of moods, as an offering during meditations, a ritual for purification, incense has proven its utility.
In our modern days of congested cities and stale air, incense has been found to be safe and pleasant natural deodorant for the home and inspiration for the tired soul.
At Clufty Trading we have a lot of incense packed into a small space. From Spritual Sky to Satya, Ancient Wisdoms' Freedom to Mahendra, you are sure to find a brand and fragrance to suit your needs.
If you haven't tried incense before, perhaps now is the time?
To use:
1) Light the tip of the incense stick or cone
2) After tip begins to glow blow out the flame
3) Place the stick or cone in/on a holder
4) Enjoy!
Caution:
Keep out of reach of children
For fragrance purpose only
Not for consumption
Keep away from flammable materials
Never leave burning incense unattended

Peppermint Essential Oil
Essential oils are extracted from various plant parts like flowers, leaves, stems, roots, seeds, bark, resin or fruit rinds. Each plant contains only a tiny percentage of essential oil, so several kilos of the plant are harvested to extract a few millilitres of oil. Therefore, these oils are highly concentrated and usually dispensed in drops, or mixed with a base oil for massages. They contain hundreds of therapeutic constituents and are used in personal products, aromatherapy, and for sanitary and healthcare reasons.
Peppermint essential oil is said to be good for ailments like asthma, colic, fever, flatulence, headache, nausea, chest congestion and vertigo. This oil is supposed to be excellent for mental fatigue and depression, refreshing and stimulating with its menthol content. It is good for the skin and is used in lotions to treat sunburn, itchiness or inflamed skin. It helps fight bad breath and gum infections when used in mouthwashes. When used in an oil burner it is not only therapeutic it also keeps away mosquitoes and other insects.
Peppermint is native to the Mediterranean but is now grown in other countries in Europe, America, and Asia. Discoveries prove that peppermint has been used since ancient times in Egypt, Greece, Rome, China and Japan. According to Greek myth, a nymph called Mentha was turned, in a fit of anger, into a mint plant by her lover’s wife Persephone. According to Pliny, peppermint was used to crown the Greeks and Romans during feasts. It has been used medicinally in England for the last few centuries.
