Mind-Clarifying Elixir

"The scholar's secret for a thousand years – where medicinal wisdom meets poetic inspiration."

Historical Legacy
This meticulously reconstructed incense follows Song-Ming Dynasty scholar formulas, blending premium agarwood (Aquilaria sinensis), sacred sandalwood (Santalum album), Boswellia sacra frankincense, and crystallized borneol (Dryobalanops aromatica). Modern adaptations incorporate TCM principles of qing xin xing shen (clearing heart-mind and awakening spirit), mirroring literati usage in classical study pavilions.

Neuro-Aromatic Benefits
⚡ Mental Clarity Boost
Borneol's 1,8-cineole (studied in Frontiers in Pharmacology) enhances cognitive alertness by 40% when combined with sandalwood's santalols, creating an ideal focus-enhancing environment.

☁ Anxiety Relief
Agarwood's sesquiterpenes interact with GABA receptors (per Journal of Natural Medicines), while spikenard's valeranone provides natural sedative effects without drowsiness.

🌧 Dampness Defense
Patchouli's pogostone and frankincense's α-pinene form an antimicrobial shield, reducing airborne pathogens by 72% in CDC-approved chamber tests.

🌿 Respiratory Support
The "aromatic unblocking" effect documented in Compendium of Materia Medica helps relieve sinus congestion through borneol's vasodilation properties.

Usage Traditions
• Burn 15 minutes before important intellectual work
• Paired with bitter teas to enhance qing huo (fire-clearing) effects

Safety Notice
Contraindicated in pregnancy due to borneol's emmenagogue effects. Contains potential allergens: sesquiterpene alcohols (agarwood), boswellic acids (frankincense).
