- Chinese incense culture refers to the incense formulations and production techniques that were developed in China by the Chinese cultures as well as their usage in daily life. Records on the use and production of Chinese incense can be traced as far back as the Spring and Autumn Period (722-481 BC), in which incense played a part in religions and secular life and came into great prominence around the Han dynasty The production of Chinese incense has always been strongly tied to the Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Similar ingredients and processing techniques are used in both incense and medicine production. Consequently Chinese incense also features itself prominently in TCM and is often indicated with physiological and psychological benefits. Although modern Chinese use and contact with incense is primarily though religious ceremonies, traditional Chinese use in dynastic time is largely for bodily wellbeing. Mencius stated regarding incense that it is not simply an item for enjoyment but important for health and wellbeing (爲性性之所欲，不可得而命安。). Calibrated incense sticks and powders were used in both secular and religious Chinese culture for keeping time.
