joss sticks
Burning aromatic rods
Joss sticks are slender sticks of incense, typically made from fragrant wood, resins, or aromatic compounds.
They're burned during religious ceremonies, meditation, or simply to scent a room.
The word joss comes from a Portuguese term for god, reflecting the sticks' association with Asian religious practices: The temple was thick with smoke from joss sticks.
