Initially, a blue flame from a lighter (partially visible on the right, held by an unseen hand) ignites the tip of the incense cone. The flame dances for a moment, then extinguishes, leaving a small, glowing ember at the cone's tip. A faint wisp of smoke begins to rise, hinting at the aromatic experience. The lighting is low-key, with a warm glow from the ember contrasting against the dark background. The color palette is dominated by dark greens, deep browns, and the warm orange of the ember.
