(Auroville) Meadows Spice

 



Meadows are a UK aromatherapy company founded 30 years ago in Kent, who commission the Indian fair trade community in Auroville to perfume dip incense sticks with natural perfumes Meadows make in the UK.  Their incense is available from their own online shop, or at other places such as Tibetan Dawn

This is a machine made perfume dipped (or perfumed) incense using fine charcoal. The sticks are "mini" - just under 9cm or 3 1/2 inches, and burn modestly with barely any smoke or aroma. There is a dry spice scent inclined toward woody, possibly cedar. There's a suggestion of nutmeg, and a hint of clove (though clove is not an ingredient), but very soft. Possibly a vague waft of fruit. 

It's an OK perfumed incense. It's quite modest. Quite dry. Quite soft. Gently spiced with an inclination toward wood. Fairly sombre. It didn't lift my world, but it didn't offend either. It's OK.
