Welcoming guests as in the Orient
Luck & Blessing (original name: Glück & Segen) is a soft, balsamic and warm incense blend from Indigo's “Fine Incense” range. It comes from an old Arabic-oriental tradition of hospitality.

Guiding thought: “May there be blessing”
Indigo's tip for the 7th sense: surprise your guests with Luck & Blessing at your next invitation.

The welcome ritual
In the Orient, the guest burns a pinch and speaks good wishes for the hosts, such as “May you have the wind at your back”. Then the celebration begins.
A dinner with friends, a family celebration, a birthday. You have cooked and laid the table, and yet the moment when everyone really arrives is often missing.
Wealthy oriental houses have a reception room just for this. Guests receive warm towels, tea and water, and on the table there are resins, flowers and an incense burner. Each guest burns a pinch and speaks good wishes for the hosts. Indigo has translated this tradition into Luck & Blessing.
With only five ingredients, Luck & Blessing is one of the simplest recipes in Indigo's “Fine Incense” range. It is blended by hand in Vienna, as Indigo has done since 1991.
📋 How to use
Hold the incense charcoal with tongs over a flame to light it and place it on shell sand in a fireproof vessel. Let it glow for about 15 minutes until it is covered with white ash. Then add 1 to 2 pinches with an incense spoon. Enjoy the scent as if smelling a flower, do not inhale it. If it starts to smell burnt, lift the remains off with the spoon and smother them in the sand.
