A beautiful twist on traditional Palo Santo smudging, combining aromatic wood, handmade incense and colourful dried botanicals.
Each Wild Hollow Living smudge stick begins with natural Palo Santo wood, hand-coated with our own botanical incense blend of sandalwood, cypress, Palo Santo powder, litsea and a hint of cinnamon.
We then finish each stick with a selection of dried flowers and botanicals, creating three distinctive designs. The natural wooden handle is left exposed, making the stick easy to hold while smudging.
Unlike conventional incense sticks, these are designed for smudging rather than continuous burning. Light the coated end, allow it to smoulder and enjoy the aromatic smoke as you gently move it around your space. The stick will naturally extinguish and can be relit whenever you wish.
A Little Botanical Surprise
Each box contains two different botanical-coated Palo Santo smudge sticks, thoughtfully selected by Wild Hollow Living from our three botanical finishes.

Botanical Coated Palo Santo Smudge Sticks FAQs
What are botanical-coated Palo Santo smudge sticks?
Our smudge sticks begin with natural Palo Santo wood, hand-coated with our own botanical incense blend of sandalwood, cypress, Palo Santo powder, litsea and a touch of cinnamon.
Each stick is finished with dried flowers and botanicals, leaving an exposed wooden handle for easy use. Unlike conventional incense sticks, these are designed for smudging rather than continuous burning.
Can I choose which botanical finishes I receive?
Each box contains two different botanical finishes, thoughtfully selected by Wild Hollow Living from our Rose, Jasmine and Hibiscus designs.
We choose the combination for you, so every box offers a little botanical surprise! Natural colours and appearances may vary.
What do the different botanical finishes contain?
All three designs share the same handmade incense coating, with different dried botanical finishes:
Rose: Dried rose petals.
Jasmine: Crushed jasmine buds, cornflower and lavender.
Hibiscus: Hibiscus, calendula and star anise.
How do I light my botanical smudge stick?
Hold the exposed Palo Santo wooden handle and light the botanical-coated end. Allow the flame to burn until the coating is well alight, then gently blow it out.
The glowing ember will begin releasing aromatic smoke. If the coating doesn't remain alight, simply relight it.
How do I use my botanical smudge stick?
Once the coated end is smouldering, gently move the stick around your space, allowing the aromatic smoke to drift through the room.
You might enjoy smudging before meditation or yoga, as part of a personal ritual, or simply to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Open a window for ventilation and take your time. Smudging doesn't need to be complicated — it's an opportunity to slow down and enjoy the natural aromas of wood, incense and botanicals.
If you'd prefer not to hold the stick throughout, rest it on a suitable heat-resistant dish.
Will my smudge stick burn continuously?
No. Unlike conventional incense sticks, botanical-coated Palo Santo smudge sticks are designed to smoulder rather than burn continuously.
The ember will naturally fade as the coating burns. Simply relight the coated end whenever you'd like to continue.
Can I reuse my botanical smudge stick?
Absolutely! Each stick can be relit and enjoyed over several smudging sessions.
When you've finished, place it on a heat-resistant dish and ensure it is completely extinguished and cool before putting it away.
How should I store my botanical smudge sticks?
Store your sticks in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight to help preserve the natural botanicals and their aroma.
Always make sure they are completely extinguished and cool before returning them to their box.
Are there any safety precautions?
Use your smudge stick in a well-ventilated space, away from curtains, paper and other flammable materials.
Hold it only by the exposed wooden handle, keeping your fingers away from the burning coating. Never leave a burning or smouldering stick unattended, and always allow it to cool completely before storing.
