how to use

Medicinal papers were in use from the 17th to the early 20th century as deodorant and sanitising agents. Carta d'Armenia is prepared in this tradition: 18 sheets, each infused with benzoin resin — extracted from Styrax trees and known for its balsamic, resinous character — and aromatic extracts. Burns without flame.

Recommendations

To use as an incense: fold into 4 pieces and light the short end for a few seconds before putting out the flame. Place on a ceramic plate away from flammable objects and let it perfume your environment. The product can also be used to perfume drawers, laundry and luggage, avoiding any direct contact with fabrics.
