At Nri & Ember, we believe scent is more than fragrance—it’s memory, medicine, and ritual.
Co-founded by two women guided by a deep reverence for ancestral wisdom and everyday ritual, Nri & Ember creates incense designed for the quiet moments—morning prayers, moonlit reflections, slow Sundays, and sacred self-care.
Each offering is thoughtfully infused in small batches, allowing custom-crafted blends of resins, florals, woods, and spices to fully saturate every stick. Much like a melody that lingers long after the last note fades, every fragrance carries rhythm and memory—smoke rising like a song, wrapping space in mood and meaning.
The name comes from two guiding forces—Nri, an Igbo word meaning nourishment, and Ember, the glowing spark that remains after the flame. Together, they represent the balance of peace and power, stillness and transformation.
Whether you’re setting an altar, cleansing your space, or simply pausing to breathe deeply, Nri & Ember invites you to return to yourself—one plume of smoke at a time.
Scented offerings for the soul.
