Description

Gardenia & Calendula - Where Flowers Meet Balance

When you light this incense, gardenia opens first with its creamy, almost intoxicating sweetness. It's the kind of floral scent that doesn't shout but rather wraps around you like a soft blanket. Then calendula appears, bringing a subtle herbal brightness that prevents the gardenia from becoming too heavy. Together they create something balanced - sweet but not cloying, floral but not overwhelming.

Sagrada Madre crafts these sticks by hand in Argentina, using traditional methods passed down through generations. Each stick contains natural charcoal and fruit biomass as a base, with no synthetic fragrances or chemical additives. The company works directly with local communities, ensuring sustainable harvesting practices and fair compensation for their skilled craftsmanship.

Gardenia has long been associated with purity and peace in many cultures. Calendula, known as marigold in English-speaking regions, has been valued for centuries for its gentle healing properties. When combined in incense, these flowers create an atmosphere that feels both protective and opening - a space where you can let go of what no longer serves you.

What makes this incense special: The gentle floral sweetness of gardenia balanced by calendula's herbal character. It's ideal for moments when you're seeking connection - with yourself, with others, or simply with the peace in your own space.

What Does It Smell Like?

✧ Creamy Floral Sweetness

The gardenia dominates at first with its full, creamy presence. Think of fresh flower petals on a warm summer day - sweet but natural, rich without being heavy. The scent feels almost touchable, like you could reach out and feel its softness. As the stick burns, this creaminess remains constant, creating a gentle backdrop.

✧ Subtle Herbal Brightness

Calendula weaves through with a lighter, slightly citrusy herbal note that lifts the gardenia's sweetness. It's the kind of accent that makes you notice the complexity rather than just one-note florals. These two scents support each other beautifully - one soft and enveloping, the other bright and clarifying.

How Do You Use This Incense?

Light the stick and let the flame catch for a moment before gently blowing it out. The smoke that rises will carry the scent throughout your space. Each stick burns for approximately 60 minutes, though indoors 5 to 10 minutes is often enough to shift the atmosphere.

Want to close your ritual mindfully? Press the burning end gently into shell sand. The sand carries the energy of water and helps you conclude the moment with intention. This incense works beautifully for evening wind-downs, for conversations that need depth, or for those times when you simply want to enjoy a soft, loving fragrance in your home.
