Incense In The Wind

Radiating Incense In The Wind - a painting by Hai Linh Le

Satya (BNG) White Sage




This is a beautiful, subtle and delicate incense. There are a number of aromas on the stick, some musk, some leather, something sweet and jammy, something like bubblegum - really quite seductive and compelling. This delicate, subtle array of aromas, while not being as emphatic, translates well on burning, creating a beautiful and serene atmosphere in the house. This is not a scent to dominate or call attention - it just gently informs the room, lifting the mood and the senses, with occasional drifts of beautiful scent.  Really nice this one. I have been burning it every morning for the past few days. Sets up the rest of the day nicely.

Satya (BNG) Egyptian Jasmine




This is a sweet, gently floral, traditional masala. It's a very decent and pleasant scent, though perhaps a tad too modest to get excited about. The scent is quite oily on the stick, and the volatile oil appears to burn off a little too rapidly leaving just a bit too much of the core. An OK scent, but on the whole too weak to use for anything other than a very modest background scent.
