Second review - scroll down for earlier review |
Yes, this is a pleasant everyday incense. Machine extruded perfumed incense stick. A modern scent - perfumed, attractive, a decent, refreshing light floral room freshener. Reminds me of the foil-wrapped incense that I also like as an everyday room freshener. Cheap and cheerful.

First review |
One of a bunch of incense grabbed at The Loft Ladder in The Marlands shopping arcade in Southampton, Southern England. A groovy shop which also sells old vinyl records and some cool t-shirts. This is a wood paste machine-extruded lower priced everyday perfumed incense from Balaji, who also sell dhoop and masala incense.
It's a reasonably pleasant scent - modest, light, clean, modern. The blurb on the bottom of the box says: Brings Divine Fantasia Fragrance", a Google search for which brings me to Anna Sui Fantasia, a perfume created in 2017 which is sold in a delightful bottle topped with a prancing unicorn. The scent description of Fantasia is remarkably similar to this Balaji Gem, which is lightly floral, jasmine and rose, with gentle citrus top notes, some raspberry middles notes, and the merest touch of cedarwood at the base.
One of the better everyday perfumed incenses, though not top end. It retails for 12 Rupees (12p) for 10 sticks in India, and can be bought from the excellent Poppat Sores in the UK for 75p.
