Incense is a biological material that releases a fragrant aroma when burned.
Incense is composed of aromatic plant materials, often enhanced with essential oils that can be used for aromatherapy or mood alteration depending on the combination chosen. The most common form of incense is direct-burning, which requires that the incense be lit directly by a flame and then fanned or blown out, leaving behind a smouldering ember that releases the material's fragrance into the air.
