Incense<\/strong> has been used by mankind for thousands of years, since the ancient civilisations of Africa and Asia.<\/p>\n

Its extraordinary effects on the body and mind have caused it to be considered from the beginning a kind of miraculous substance<\/strong>, suitable to the adoration of the gods, religious celebrations and in general to all that concerned the sphere of spirituality. The use of incense<\/strong>, as well as bark and fragrant wood, needed to appease the gods, to bring people together with them, or with the afterlife. The incense was also used to purify the environment and the body.<\/p>\n

In all ancient cultures and in the great sacred texts of all religions, from the Bible to the Qur’an, there are references to the use of incense.<\/p>\n
