Tree of Life is a brand of hand made bamboo stick incense made in the UK since 1992 by Geoffrey Davies. and distributed by Cha Cha Dum Dum, an ethnic gifts company founded in Kensington in 1968. They are available at a low price from a few internet and high street incense shops, and from Cha Cha Dum Dum direct, but only when ordering goods to at least the value of £25. They used to be available direct from Tree of Life for 99p a packet, plus postage, but the website appears to be down.
Tree of Life Cannabis Score: 20 |
Tree of Life Shalimar Score: 30 |
Tree of Life Shalimar incense sticks are of a soft, pleasant fragrance with a mild smoke. This is a pleasing, delicate, and good value for money incense, reminding me of the subtlety and delicacy of Japanese incense in the fragrance, if not in the burning (Japanese incense sticks have no bamboo, and so burn more cleanly and with less smoke). I feel if there were a little more incense applied to the sticks, this could become a favourite of mine.
These sticks have a delicate floral perfume out of the packet. The fragrance when burned starts off with warm notes of sandalwood base combined with sweet floral high notes.
