New Year's Eve incense · Frankincense, Sweet Orange, Myrrh blend

Frankincense and sweet orange sit equally, deep resin meeting fresh orange; myrrh and sandalwood close with a smooth, deep layer of wood. Solemn yet cozy, good for the altar room or living room on Lunar New Year's Eve. Start the diffuser 30 minutes before the offering ritual, placed away from the altar and candles; for more depth, add 1 drop of sandalwood.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic); sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
