HEM Night Queen Incense Cones in El Paso

HEM Night Queen is a box of 10 charcoal incense cones built around one of India’s most beloved evening florals. Light a cone and the room fills with a sweet, heady, slightly powdery floral led by night jasmine, the flower Indians call raat rani. Each cone burns for about 25 minutes, the box includes a small metal burner plate, and our Hosts stock it right here in El Paso. Below is the scent story, how to burn a cone, and the full specs.

What Night Queen smells like

Night Queen sits in the floral family, and its signature is night jasmine, known across India as raat rani (Cestrum nocturnum), a flower prized for the intense fragrance it releases after dark. Expect a sweet, heady, night-blooming floral with a slightly powdery-sweet character that calls to mind an evening garden. It is rich and floral rather than sharp or smoky, which makes it a favorite for scenting a bedroom or living space in the evening. The name is a nod to that night-blooming jasmine heritage and describes the aroma only.

Cones vs sticks, and how to burn them

These are charcoal dhoop cones, not hand-rolled masala sticks, so the fragrance is molded into a solid charcoal base rather than paste-coated onto a bamboo core. A cone burns hotter and shorter than a stick, roughly 25 minutes versus the 30 to 45 minutes a stick runs. To burn one, set the cone on the included metal plate or another heat-safe, non-flammable surface, light the pointed tip, let the flame catch for a few seconds, then gently blow it out so the cone glows and smolders. Keep it on a stable, level surface away from curtains, paper, and anything flammable, and give the room some airflow.
