SAC (Sandesh)




The Sandesh Agarbathi Company (SAC) was founded in 1970 by D.N.P. Guptha  in Bangalore, the centre of India's incense industry. They started as a cottage industry, but are now a significant exporter around the world, with over 250 different incense products, many of which were listed on the  now closed American retail site IncenseOnTheWay.  The company is a member of the All India Agarbathi Manufactures Association. They also trade under the GR International name with what appears to be the same products.

Conclusion: An acceptable everyday incense company who make cheap perfume-dipped and masala incense. There's nothing exciting or unusual here - they are pretty average, so I'm not that interested in exploring their perfumed products any further, but I might have a sniff around more of their masala products - their Atma Darshan Flora is fairly decent.
