Ranga Rao Flute Incense Lavender

Part of a 6 for £5 deal in Gillingham market, these are cheap, basic, thinly machine dipped incense sticks using chemical fragrances. The appearance is black, mat charcoal, which smears down the handle of the undyed bamboo stick. The incense is laid on fairly thinly and burns quickly. There is little sense of lavender in the aroma, which is gently woody with some warm bergamont middle notes, and dark berry fruit high notes. It's not an unpleasant aroma, but is mild and forgettable. It is warm and calming, and would be fine as a background aroma, especially in the bedroom areas. They are made by N. Ranga Rao & Sons of Mysore under their Flute brand.
