Hem sells incense in several formats: square-core sticks, cones and backflow cones. Square sticks are the everyday choice and our product pages say their square-cut bamboo core burns slower. Cones burn compactly, and backflow cones need a matching backflow burner.
What is Hem incense?
Hem is a long-running incense brand with a very wide range of scents. You can see the whole range in our Hem collection, or go straight to the Hem incense sticks collection.
Hem square sticks
Our Hem product pages describe the Square series as sticks built on a square-cut bamboo core that burns slower. The Hem Red Apple page, for example, lists twenty sticks to a pack and about forty-five minutes per stick. See the Hem square incense collection. For a first try, scents such as Palo Santo, Citronella, Sandal-Rose and Vanilla Orange cover woody, fresh, floral and sweet.
Hem cones
Cones are compact and burn down from the tip, so they suit small spaces and short sessions. Browse the Hem cone incense collection.
Hem backflow cones
Backflow cones have a hollow channel and make smoke flow downward, but only in a backflow burner. See the Hem backflow cone collection and read how to fix backflow incense that is not working.
How do I choose between formats?
- Square sticks: everyday burning with a simple holder.
- Cones: short, compact sessions on a heat-safe dish.
- Backflow cones: a visual effect, with the right burner.
Hem or Satya?
Both are popular, and they are different brands with different recipes. Read our Nag Champa guide for a way to compare them yourself, and browse the Satya collection.
Staying safe
Burn incense in a ventilated room, away from flammable things, and never leave it unattended. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.
