Stick Incense: Probably the most common variation of incense, stick incense is easy to use and comes in various fragrances. It burns evenly and slowly, making it ideal for long periods.
Cone Incense: Cones provide stronger fragrances, but they don't stay for that long. They can be a great option when one wants a quick fix of fragrance.

Loose Incense: Loose incense usually uses charcoal discs and gives a more traditional and perhaps more authentic experience. You can blend a number of fragrances to have a custom blend.
Resin Incense: This incense is burned on charcoal or a specialty burner, with rich fragrances that diffuse easily in the air to fill the entire room.

2. Selecting the Right Incense
Determine why you want incense in the first place. Is it for meditation, calming, or fragrance alone? Smells come with different uses. Sandalwood is excellent for meditation while Lavendar is known for bringing calm.

3. Setting Up Your Space
Your entire experience is heavily influenced by the environment in which you burn incense. Be mindful that the area has some ventilation. High volumes of incense smoke can be diluted, the more open the space the more that the fragrance can be dispersed without being too overpowering.

4. The Burning Process
Light the incense stick or the cone's end with a matchstick or lighter. Allow the flame to burn for several seconds, before blowing it out in a safe manner. The end should glow red and start to smoke. Remember to be attentive to your incense while it is burning. Some varieties produce a fair amount of smoke, particularly resins. Leave a little airing out for proper ventilation if the smoke is heavy or the aroma is overpowering.

5. Post-Burning Care
Critical to the burning process is the safe handling of incense after the burning has taken place. Extinguish incense completely if left burning unattended after use. This will help to prevent a possible fire. To prevent a build-up of residue that may affect the scent in future burnings, occasionally clean your incense holders and burners. Furthermore, to preserve the aroma and quality of incense, it is best to keep unused incense in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight exposure.
