Incense in the world's spirituality
Incense Tradition
The incense tradition extends from Egyptian kyphi through the olibanum of Catholic liturgy, Japanese kōdō, Indian dhoop and Tibetan monastery incense sticks to Arabian bakhoor. Incense — burned mixtures of resins, woods, flowers and spices — was humanity's first form of perfumery and remains the backbone of sacred and secular aromatics today.
