Temple of Incense - Himalayan Spikenard Incense Sticks

All About Temple of Incense

The Temple of Incense began in 2012, on a little market stall on Portobello Road, when two sisters from South London set out to bring you the best in world-class incense. The daily ritual of burning incense has been engrained in their lives for as long as they can remember, and they’ve dedicated everything to bringing that bit of magic into your homes. All their products are handmade with consciousness and positive intention. Their ingredients (vegan and cruelty-free) are found in all corners of the world to bring you the kind of incense that’s real luxury. It is artistry, alchemy in a stick - and let’s face it, you and your home deserve that level of love.

All About Himalayan Spikenard Incense Sticks

This precious Himalayan Spikenard incense from the Himalayas is known as ‘divine’ in Ayurveda and revered in the Bible. According to Christian Gospel, spikenard or ‘nard’ was the precious oil used by Mary Magdalene to anoint the feet of Jesus Christ. This was a time when one jar of oil was worth a years’ wages.

We’ve used this oil, carefully blended with bakhoor, musk, oakmoss and vetiver to create a majestic stick to complement and even rival our famous Oudh.
