Bought from my local hardware shop for £1, and imported into the UK by Sifcon. The original Satya company was split between the two brothers, and this is an incense produced by the distributor Nagraj Setty under the name Shrinivas Sugandhalaya LLP. Nagraj did not have access to the original factory, and has struggled to make incense of the same quality as the original, though because he has the distribution contacts, still manages to sell on a large scale. It is a machine made masala soaked in a fragrant oil. Some of the dried ingredients have fallen off and are gathered at the bottom of the pack. There is an intense aroma when burnt - quite heady. Too heady and sharp for me. It reminds me of Brut scent - which was popular with teenage boys in the Seventies. It is a clean citric scent, but fairly crude and one dimensional and simply too strong. I had to move it to the far end of the room. It's not a bad scent, and some will be attracted, but this is not one for me. Perhaps it's one I can use in the garden.
