Kapoor" refers to camphor, a white translucent flammable solid with a strong aromatic odor. It is derived from the laurel camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora). Camphor is burned for its pleasant scent and for its purported medicinal properties. It is believed to have antiseptic and decongestant properties. Incense comes in many forms, including sticks, cones, and powders. It is burned for its fragrance and for its spiritual significance. Incense is often used in religious ceremonies and during meditation. Kapoor danis can be simple or elaborate. Some have a lid to contain the smoke and fragrance, while others are open. Electric kapoor danis are also available, which use electricity to heat a plate to burn the incense or camphor.
