How a Backflow (Waterfall) Incense Burner Works

A backflow incense burner works differently from traditional incense holders. Backflow incense cones are designed with a small hollow channel in the base that allows smoke to flow downward rather than rise upward.

When paired with a waterfall incense burner, the smoke travels through the burner’s pathways and pools gently at the base, creating the signature cascading mist effect unique to backflow incense burners.

Choosing the Right Incense Cones: Backflow (Waterfall) vs Dhoop

Not all incense cones will create the waterfall effect.

Backflow (Waterfall) Incense Cones

  • Designed specifically for backflow incense burners
  • Feature a hollow base that directs smoke downward
  • Create the cascading waterfall smoke effect
  • Often burn slightly longer than standard cones

Dhoop Incense Cones

  • Smaller, solid cones
  • Produce smoke that rises upward naturally
  • Suitable for traditional incense holders or bowls
  • Will not create a waterfall effect

For the waterfall effect, always use backflow incense cones with this burner.

How to Use (Best Results)

  1. Place the burner on a stable, heat-resistant surface
  2. Align the hole in the base of the backflow cone with the opening at the top of the burner
  3. Light the cone and allow the tip to burn for a few seconds
  4. Gently blow out the flame so the cone smoulders
  5. Allow up to 10 minutes for the smoke to cool and begin cascading

For best results, use indoors in a draft-free area away from windows, doors or vents.

Care & Safety

  • Backflow incense cones may leave a light residue — this is normal
  • Allow the burner to cool fully before cleaning
  • Wipe gently with a damp cloth after use
  • Always use on a heat-resistant surface
  • Never leave burning incense unattended
  • Keep away from children, pets and flammable materials
