An eight pack sampler from Auromere on the theme of flowers and spice. The sticks are the same size as the samplers from The Mother's, and that is appropriate as both the UK based Greater Goods who market The Mother's, and the US based Auromere Imports who market Auromere, are sourcing from the Pondicherry/Auroville area. Essentially, it appears that the same folks are making them, though possibly to different specifications.
I start with the Champa (Perfection), which has a delightful sweet, floral scent. I do like this. These are not masala sticks - which the Kasturi and the Sandalwood are; these are perfumed-charcoal sticks. They are simply-made little sticks with varying thickness of charcoal paste which has been impregnated with a scented oil of some sort, perhaps a perfume rather than an attar. It is light, fun, and somewhat temporary. Likeable in a modest, fun way. The sticks do briefly brighten up the room, but the scent doesn't linger. A modest Champa. Score: 31
