The best incense cones will come in a variety of scents, from soothing sandalwood and uplifting lavender to refreshing orange. These cones are easy to burn and will be great for yoga, meditation, or simply creating a great ambiance.
Our top pick is the Monsfantal Backflow Incense Cones set because it has the versatility of six scents and gives you 120 incense cones for a very reasonable price. Incense cones often have backflow which means their smoke is heavy and will flow through decorative waterfall burners, and all of the cones in our guide will work well in one of these. Just keep reading to find the right one for you.
