R. Expo The Great Indian Caravan Namaste Neroli & Basil Incense Cones

 



These are from Sacred Essence, where they are available for £2.99 a packet. Other places also sell them - The Great Indian Caravan products seems to be everywhere at the moment. The packaging is colourful and appealing, and aimed at the Western market. The cones are perfume-dipped, and are mostly wood powder, though there is also some frankincense resin as well. The frankincense helps lift the aroma a bit, but not much - the scent is partly the essential oils and perfume, and partly the wood powder. As the cone burns down, it mostly becomes the tar from the wood powder. So these are not great quality cones. The scent is initially OK, but it's not long before the scorched wood powder and tar starts to appear. Sadly, these are just toilet cleaners or fly repellent. They are not cones to burn in the house.
