In this article, we'll be discussing the top incense choices for your home. This will contain recommendationson incense scents as well as incense burners. To ease the decision-making process, this article will also contain sections on different parts of the house and which incense scent is best suited for that part of your home.

Before we begin, let's look at the four major types of incense.

1. Incense Sticks - This is the most popular type of incense. You've probably seen it in a movie, and if not, it is most likely the firstoption that pops when you search "incense" on any search engine. Incense sticks are usually made from bamboo wood.

2. Incense Cones - Incense cones are the variants that work with most incense burners, such as the waterfall incense burner and the backflowincense burner. Although there are incense burners that can be used with incense sticks, most of them tend to be created for incense burners since incense sticks are better off on incense holders.

3. Incense Coils - Incense coils are prevalent in religious and spiritual settings because they usually don't require a holder or a burnerto function adequately.

4. Incense Powder - Incense powder is an extremely concentrated form of incense. To burn incense powder, you need a particular type of burner.This type of burner is usually shaped like a pot or a kettle.

Now, let's discuss the incense choices for your home based on size. If you're looking to burn incense at home, then you'll need to know the best choices for your type ofliving situation.

1. A House - If you live in a large house, then you'll need an incense type that is great for larger spaces. For large houses, we'llrecommend incense coils because they burn for longer periods (from two to four hours depending on the size. You can also opt for incense powders. Large houses need incense variants that last longer and keep the aroma in the air foras long as possible. This is to ensure you're saving cost yet still enjoying the numerous benefits of incense.

2. An Apartment - If you live in an apartment, then you have to take a few things into consideration. The first factor is how many neighborsyou have. Incense is deeply personal, and because there are so many scents, many people tend to have scents they prefer which make other scents unbearable to them. The second factor is the ventilation in your apartment. Forthose with a lot of ventilation, we'd recommend incense cones with covered incense burners like this one. Incense burners like this one are perfect if your apartment doesn't get a lot of fresh air. Of course, you can select any type of incense and burner you like, but if you're looking to be efficientand get the most out of your products, we'd suggest working with the ventilation in your apartment instead of against it.

For smaller apartments, we'd recommend incense cones, so the fragrance is contained.

3. For Your Room - Your room can also be your home. If you're looking for the best incense options for a room, then we'll suggest incense sticks. With incense sticks, you are rest assured that the scent will be well contained in your room.In addition to easy containment, incense sticks do not need incense burners (except you choose to have one). You can burn your incense stick with a simple incense holder.
