Carta d'Armenia

““Carta d'Armenia, sheets of paper infused with benzoin resin from Styrax trees, continuing a medicinal paper tradition documented from the 17th to the early 20th century. Burns without flame.“ They smell so good and the box is a tiny treasure!”

“The best incense gift from @Grier”

“Florentine paper incense that smells amazing and comes in a little red lipstick case-like box? Say less.”

“GOODS Loving all things scented these days and all things nostalgic and well made. These are so romantic somehow, make a great gift and good for a guest bathroom or bedroom. "Benzoin resin is extracted from Styrax trees and known for its balsamic, resinous character. For centuries it was used as a deodorant and sanitising agent in medical and domestic preparations. Carta d'Armenia continues this tradition: each of the 18 sheets is infused with benzoin resin and aromatic extracts. It burns without flame, releasing a persistent resinous accord into the air, and can also be used to perfume drawers and linen." They had me at aromatic extracts.”

“You can use these incense papers to line your unmentionables drawer, or burn after you watch the news.”

“The most elegant scent to reset your space with.”

“Such a special smell, sweet and resinous, once burnt the scent lingers on for a long time. Classic SMN box design that looks so pleasing on your coffee table. Totally worth sending your best friend to a different city out of her way just to get a stock of these.”

“Incense papers that give off a warm, cozy smell as if you were standing in an old Florentine pharmacy.”
