The Retreat Series Incense Sticks | Calm Mint · Rainy Days · Zen Oasis — Premium Botanical Blends
Details
Rare Botanicals · 20 sticks per box
The Retreat Series is built around rare, high-grade botanicals — Mysore Sandalwood, Cambodian Agarwood, Borneol — that create complex, multi-layered scents you won't find in standard incense.
Each blend is designed around a sensory experience: a physical cooling sensation, an emotional warmth, or a stillness that asks nothing of you. Choose the retreat your body needs today.
What makes this series different
Unlike single-botanical incense, the Retreat Series uses complex multi-ingredient formulas with rare materials sourced from Mysore, Cambodia, and Borneo. The result is a richer, more immersive scent that evolves as it burns.
Choose your retreat
Calm Mint The Mountain Retreat
Physical cooling sensation
Herbal · Refreshing · Calm
Agarwood · Sandalwood · Borneol (Bing Pian) · Asarum · Honey · Botanical Binder
Natural Borneol creates a distinct icy coolness in the nose — similar to the crisp air at high altitude. The touch of Honey softens the edge, making it refreshing without being sharp.
Best for: cutting through drowsiness, cooling down on a hot afternoon, or resetting focus mid-day.
Rainy Days The Indoor Retreat
Emotional warming sensation
Floral · Grounding · Peaceful
Cambodian Agarwood · Mysore Sandalwood · Clove · Tonka Bean · Vanilla Extract · Botanical Binder
Wraps around you like a soft cashmere blanket on a rainy afternoon. The Clove and Tonka Bean add depth and warmth, while Vanilla rounds the whole blend into something deeply comforting.
Best for: slow evenings, emotional grounding, or any moment you need to feel held rather than stimulated.
Zen Oasis The Garden Retreat
Pure stillness
Woody · Grounding · Serene
Indian Mysore Sandalwood · Australian Sandalwood · Mugwort · Orchid · Botanical Binder
Creamy Mysore Sandalwood anchors the blend, with a faint whisper of Orchid drifting above it. Clean, unhurried, and without distraction — like sitting in a silent garden at dusk.
Best for: deep meditation where silence and zero distraction matter most.
How to use
Hold a flame to the tip for a few seconds until it catches.
Gently blow out — you should see a glowing ember and a thin stream of smoke.
Insert into a standard incense holder. These sticks are 2mm thick and fit all AetherFlow holders (up to 3mm) as well as standard 2mm holders. A Mini Holder add-on is available on this page.
Open a window slightly for best airflow. Let the scent settle into the room before you begin your practice.

Frequently asked
What does the Borneol cooling sensation actually feel like?
Borneol (Bing Pian in traditional Chinese medicine) creates a gentle cooling effect in the nasal passage — similar to menthol, but softer and more herbal. It doesn't cool the room; it creates a sensation of freshness when you inhale. Most people find it immediately alerting and clarifying.
Are these safe for pets?
Animals have much more sensitive noses than humans — we recommend burning in a well-ventilated room with windows open, and keeping pets away from direct smoke.
