Why Does My Incense Waterfall Smell Bad?

By IWB on March 3, 2024March 4, 2024

Incense waterfall cones, also known as backflow incense cones, can at times smell very bad or have an underwhelming scent. Here are some of the possible causes and what you can do about it.

Quality Factors:

Many manufacturers opt for low-grade, easy-to-burn ingredients to cut costs, resulting in less pleasant scents.

Crafting high-quality, all-natural incense cones is an expensive process. Each cone weighs several times more than an incense stick, leading to higher raw material costs.

The slower drying time for cones (up to a week) due to their shape and weight adds to production costs.

Incense cones are more challenging to keep lit compared to sticks because their burning surface increases as the cone burns.

Chemically Colored Varieties:

There are brightly colored (often chemically colored) incense cones that are commonly sold on popular shopping platforms.

These cones may be visually appealing however they often lack aromatic quality.

You should stick with Handcrafted cones which have improved fragrances and a longer burn time, and captivating visual effects also.

Backflow Incense Burners:

Backflow incense burners, which are also called incense waterfalls, create the mesmerizing effect where smoke flows downward.

Theys use Backflow incense cones which are specifically designed for these burners.

The scent of these cones can vary significantly based on their quality and ingredients so again you stick with cones which are made of natural ingredients.

To summarize, the scent of incense waterfall cones can be disappointing due to cost considerations, manufacturing practices, and the choice of ingredients. If you’re seeking a more aromatic experience, Stick with high-quality, natural incense cones.
