Agar is an evergreen tree from which incense sticks are made. Batti means wick. So, the wick made from the agarwood is called agarbatti. Since the Agar tree is found in India’s tropical climate, India is a leading producer of incense sticks.
Agarbatti is a norm in most Indian households. Some people burn them daily, while others reserve them for special occasions. Like camphor, this scent has a way of transporting you to a divine and higher space. Sambhrani and dhoop are variations of agarbatti.
Agarbatti is used in temples, homes, and offices to purify the air. Agarbatti is also known for its calming effects. It can help to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. Due to these reasons, they are said to be the best choice for soothing aromatherapy.
