Why are incense cones so popular?

Whether you’re looking for a way to make your own home smell nicer, or you want to find that perfect gift, there are multiple reasons that you might be looking for the right kind of incense. If you find yourself in that situation, let us introduce incense cones.


Incense cones have been popular for centuries and continue to be a popular choice for adding fragrance and ambience to a space. There have been multiple evolutions of the traditional cone as we know it, with Oud incense cones being one of our favourites types based on aroma and fragrance intensity.

There are multiple reasons why incense cones are so popular:

  • They’re easy to use: Incense cones are simple to use and do not require any special equipment or setup. All you need is a cone holder or ash catcher and a lighter, and you're ready to go. This makes them a convenient and hassle-free choice for adding fragrance to your home. That being said, you can buy nice diffusers if you want - more on that later.


  • They’re long-lasting: Incense cones can burn for a long time, depending on the size and type of cone. This means that they’re a cost-effective choice for fragrance, as you can enjoy the scent for several hours or even days without having to constantly replace them.


  • They’re versatile: Incense cones come in a wide range of scents. As a result, you can choose a scent that fits your preferences and the atmosphere you want to create in your home. Alternatively, you can choose a box with multiple different scent options, to increase the chances that there’s a scent that you really like. Once you’ve identified the right option, you can get that one in bulk.



  • They’re inexpensive: Incense cones are generally less expensive than other fragrance options, such as candles or plug-ins. If you’re trying to watch how much you spend, but still want to find something that’s really effective and smells great, incense cones can be a budget-friendly choice for adding fragrance to your home.


  • They’re easy to find: Incense cones are widely available and can be purchased at most stores that sell home fragrance products. If you’re struggling to find somewhere with a scent that you like, this shouldn’t be an issue with incense cones.


  • They have a nice aesthetic: In addition to smelling great, incense cones have a really nice, calming aesthetic. You can find a wide range of different diffusers to put the actual cone in while it burns, with infinite different styles. In some of these diffusers, you can watch the smoke flow through the structure, as long as there’s not a breeze in your room that might disrupt the flow.



Clearly, incense cones have a lot going for them - they’re popular because they are easy to use, long-lasting, versatile, inexpensive, and easy to find.


Whether you are looking to create a relaxing atmosphere or add a touch of fragrance to your home, or you’re looking for a nice gift to get for someone close to you, incense cones are a popular and effective choice.
