About: Hem Ylang Ylang Incense Sticks

The botanical is named

The listing names the cananga tree the flower comes from, which is more than a fragrance name.

Forty-five to sixty minutes

The longest stated burn in this part of the range, and this listing's own figure.

Twenty sticks per pack

The count is printed alongside the burn time.

One printed figure is wrong

The listing says 20 grams per stick. That is the pack weight; we correct it rather than repeat it.

Product Details

Hem Ylang Ylang Incense Sticks carry the deep, slightly sweet floral aroma of ylang-ylang, twenty sticks to a pack, with each stick burning approximately forty-five to sixty minutes.

The listing does something most of this range does not: it names the plant. Ylang-ylang comes from the flowers of Cananga odorata, a tropical tree whose drooping yellow blooms are picked before dawn, when the oil content is highest. The name itself comes from Tagalog, and in the Philippines and Indonesia the flowers have been strung and used for their scent long before anyone distilled them.

It is one of the heaviest florals in all of perfumery — intensely sweet, faintly banana-like at the top, with a creamy, almost custardy depth underneath. That richness is why it is used so sparingly in blends and why a single-note version like this one fills a room quickly. One stick is genuinely enough.

One figure on the listing is simply a mistake, and we would rather correct it than repeat it. It states twenty grams per stick. Twenty grams is the weight of the whole pack of twenty; a single twenty-gram incense stick would be an extraordinary object. The pack is twenty sticks at about twenty grams in total.

The burn time is also the longest stated anywhere in this part of the range. That is this listing's own figure rather than a house standard — Hem quotes anywhere from thirty minutes to an hour across comparable products, which is why we never carry one number over to another. More of the range sits in our Hem Incense Sticks collection.

No holder is included. Set a fire-safe holder on a stable, heat-resistant surface before lighting, burn in a ventilated room away from drafts, children and pets, and let the ash and holder cool fully before they are cleared. More of the category sits in our Incense Sticks collection.

How to Use Hem Ylang Ylang Incense Sticks

Set out a holder first. No holder comes in the pack, so have a fire-safe incense holder ready on a stable, heat-resistant surface before you light anything.

Light the tip. Hold a flame to the tip of the stick for a few seconds, until it catches and the tip glows.

Fan the flame out. Fan the flame out rather than blowing hard on it, so the stick settles into a slow, even smolder instead of an open burn.

Ventilate and enjoy. Set the stick in the holder and burn in a well-ventilated room away from drafts, flammable objects, children, and pets. Let the ash and holder cool fully before they are cleared.

Main Ingredients

A fragranced incense stick carrying the deep, slightly sweet floral aroma of ylang-ylang, from the flowers of the cananga tree, with natural ingredients including essential oils. A full ingredient breakdown, ratio, or purity specification is not published by the supplier. If you have known fragrance or plant-based allergies, consider a test burn first.

Shelf Life & Storage

Keep the sticks in their pack, closed between uses, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Damp and heat are what dull a fragranced stick first, and an open pack left beside other fragrances will slowly take on their scent as well. Stored this way the sticks generally hold their aroma well for 12-24 months, though this is general guidance rather than a supplier-stated date, as no expiration date is printed on the packaging.

Safety Instructions

Never leave burning incense unattended. Always place lit sticks in a heat-resistant holder on a stable, non-flammable surface, well away from curtains, papers, and anything else that could catch, and keep them out of reach of children and pets. Burn in a well-ventilated room, and let the ash and holder cool fully before handling or discarding them.

FAQs

Q: How long does each stick burn, and how many are in a pack?
A: Twenty sticks per pack, with each stick burning approximately 45 to 60 minutes. That figure is this listing's own; Hem quotes different burn times across its range, so we do not carry one product's number over to another.

Q: Is each stick really 20 grams?
A: No — that is an error on the listing. Twenty grams is the weight of the whole pack of twenty sticks. A single twenty-gram incense stick would be an extraordinary object, and we would rather correct the figure than repeat it.

Q: What is ylang-ylang?
A: The flower of Cananga odorata, a tropical tree grown across Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean. The blooms are picked before dawn, when their oil content is highest, and the name comes from Tagalog.

Q: What does it smell like?
A: Intensely sweet and full, faintly banana-like at the top, with a creamy, almost custardy depth underneath. It is one of the heaviest florals there is, which is why one stick is genuinely enough for a room.

Q: Do I need a holder?
A: Yes — none is included. Any fire-safe incense holder on a stable, heat-resistant surface will do.
