The incense seal ritual — six steps
1. Loosen the ash： stir the ash clockwise with the incense chopstick until even and airy.
2. Level the ash： press it flat with the ash tamper (灰押).
3. Place the mould：set the seal mould (香篆) in the centre of the censer.
4. Fill with powder： fill the mould evenly with the spade (香铲).
5. Lift the mould： lift it gently; the powder keeps its seal shape.
6. Light & enjoy： light the end and let the seal burn slowly, filling the room with sandalwood.
Five ways to use fragrance powder
1. Incense seal (xiāng zhuàn / 印香)： press the powder into a seal mould and light it slowly.
2. DIY incense sticks & cones： blend with a natural binder (try 90g powder to 10g binder) and shape.
3. Electric incense warmer： gentle low-temperature warming releases the aroma without smoke.
4. Indirect heating (隔火空熏)： warm a small pile over an ash bed for a clean, subtle scent.
5. Everyday space & car： a pinch in a burner fills a room or a car with quiet calm.
FAQ
What does wild chrysanthemum powder smell like?
Herbal and slightly bitter with a crisp green note — a grounding accent for blends.
Is this powder scented or synthetic?
No. It is 100% natural dried flower powder, low-temperature ground, with no synthetic fragrance and no additives.
What are incense beads (xiang zhu) and incense plaques (xiang pai)?
Incense beads (香珠) and incense plaques (香牌) are traditional Chinese incense crafts: natural powder is mixed with a binder into a dough, then rolled or pressed into beads and plaques. Once dried they carry the scent for a long time, and can be worn or kept as fragrant objects.
Can I make my own incense sticks or cones with this powder?
Yes. Blend about 90g of powder with 10g of a natural binder (such as makko or joss powder), add water drop by drop until it forms a clay-like dough, then shape and dry them in a warm, airy place.
What is an incense seal (yin xiang)?
An incense seal (印香, yìn xiāng) is a traditional way of burning loose incense powder: the powder is pressed into a mould in a seal or pattern shape, then lit at one end so it burns slowly and evenly.
How should I store the powder?
Keep the jar sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Natural incense powder keeps well and its aroma deepens over time.
Is this product a medicine?
No. This is a natural incense and aromatherapy material for craft, burning and blending. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
