Padmini




Padmini were founded in the 1960s. Apparently they became known in the US for their little dhoop sticks.  The company is not that well established in the UK, though Aargee import the little dhoop sticks, Gold Statue (originally selling that under their own brand name), and a few others [2023 comment: Aargee has now split, with the incense importing continuing under the Stamford London name]. For a while I thought Padmini was one of Aargee's brand names. It wasn't until a Padmini employee contacted me on my Facebook page that I realised they were an established independent brand. So I'm setting out to explore them a little further.
