Genuine Palo Santo Wood Smudge Sticks from Peru

For centuries palo santo has been used as an incense much like the sage smudge stick. Typically people burn Palo Santo to cleanse the energy in their home or place of work, set an intention ie relaxation or simply to enjoy its unique aroma.

The wood is lit at one end until it holds a flame, wait a couple seconds for a light burn or a moment more for a more intense effect and then blow out the flame. Its aroma is then diffused through the smoke. We advise you to keep a hold of the stick while its smoking and set it down in a bowl or plate once your’re finished, it gets messy!

Bursera graveolens, also known as “holy wood,” is a tree that produces a powerful essential oil known for stimulating the immune system, purifying air and supporting emotional and spiritual health.

Our Palo Santo comes from a tree species native to the tropical dry forests of Ecuador. It has its own cycle with nature to only produce its magnificent aroma, years after it has died naturally and remained on the forest floor.
