Palo Santo Peruvian Holy Wood - Set of 5

◦ **About Peruvian Palo Santo** • Native to Central and South America, Peruvian Palo Santo grows for forty to fifty years. It weathers storms and insect activity, gradually dying and decaying. Naturally deceased Palo Santo undergoes a long period of weathering, during which its internal structure naturally ferments to produce resinous compounds. These resinous compounds possess a unique aroma, and Palo Santo is believed to have powerful purifying effects. It has been widely used by shamans in its native regions and is also frequently used in Western religious practices to craft various ceremonial objects. • Sourced through legally approved permits for sustainable harvesting from local Peruvian authorities. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55182961468_feda5a4b95_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55183192900_cb0f9132c5_b.jpg ◦ **How to Use** 1. Light one end of the Palo Santo stick with a flame until it glows red, then extinguish the flame (approximately ten to twenty seconds). Use the rising smoke to purify your space, yourself, or crystals. 2. Peruvian Palo Santo is natural wood without added accelerants. Under normal humidity, each stick will smolder for approximately 20-40 seconds and extinguish automatically in about 1 minute. The aroma can linger in a space for 30-90 minutes (within a 6-ping area). To prevent olfactory fatigue, it is recommended to burn it no more than 3 times per hour. 3. Each Palo Santo stick can be reused multiple times. The Palo Santo from "In the Mountains" is sourced from Peru, offering a more complex and nuanced aroma compared to the fresh scent from Ecuador. It contains a high concentration of essential oils that are slowly released when burned. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55183047704_1739e4bb43_b.jpg ◦ **Aroma Profile** • Palo Santo is wood from naturally fallen trees that have been affected by insects. The scent and aftertaste can vary slightly depending on the part of the tree and the region of origin (the primary aroma is always woody-sweet). Darker pieces with more resin burn with a richer, more layered scent, similar to agarwood. Lighter, slimmer sticks offer a refreshing scent with notes of citrus and mint in the aftertaste. ◦ **Dimensions** • Each stick measures approximately 8-11 cm in length, with inconsistent width. Please refrain from purchasing if this is a concern. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/55182777561_f6cee82785_b.jpg ◦ **About the Handmade Brass Travel Incense Holder** • The long-awaited Palo Santo Holder is finally here!
