African Cush is a wonderful name. It only appears to be used for this particular foil-wrapped incense - Moroccan Bazaar and Zam Zam use the name, so supporting the notion that Zam Zam have taken over Moroccan Bazaar. There is a "Land of Cush" in the Bible, which may have been in Arabia, or Africa, or both. If it was in Africa, then it was most likely to be Ethiopia. To add interest, there is an ancient and known Kingdom of Kush, which was in present day Sudan - an area between Egypt and Ethiopia.
As with other foil wrapped incense, there is a pleasant sweetness to the stick which does translate into the scent when burning. It is a light, floral scent, with that pleasant sweetness, and an underlying hint of musk. It kinda feels like a modern designer scent, and has a similarity to not only other foil wrapped incense, but also Tree of Life incense - particularly Shalimar, and Angel Wings by Regent House - all of whom are British. I like these scents - they are delicate, attractive, clean, fun, and quite modern.
