Mysore Sugandhi

The Mysore Sugandhi Dhoop Factory of Bangalore was formed in 1934, and claims to be the first exporter of incense from India - their name means the fragrant incense factory of Mysore, and their Chandan Dhoop was made under the patronage of the Maharaja of Mysore. 

Some of their basic single scent perfume-dipped incense was sold under the Aargee brand in the UK. Aargee is now Stamford London, and no longer  uses the Aargee brand, so those incenses are discontinued under that brand; however, the scents will still be available with the Mysore Sugandhi brand.
