Yadalam Vaastu Rose Thick Dhoop (out of business)




This is a gently spicy and woody rose incense, with herbal, almost Tibetan, notes. This relates closely to some Japanese incense as well.  The base is sweet, gentle, creamy sandalwood, then lifts to a herbal patchouli aroma with hints of cannabis, particularly joints rolled with grass rather than resin.  There is something pleasantly earthy and "real" about this. It's not really a rose or even a floral aroma - it is too woody, earthen, rugged, and herbal for that. Hmm - there's a suggestion of sexy musk as well. I like this. Forget the Rose title, this is a grunting and rutting earth pig of an incense. Gentle, soft, and calming, but fantastically earthy in a rich, sexy, freshly picked mushroom sort of way. I like this.
