This is a perfumed incense mainly for the domestic Indian market, though is sold in various countries around the world. The cost marked on this pack is 15 Rupees for 14g. It is popular in the modern zipper packs which hold 100g, and are sold for around 70 Rupees (approx 70p or 80 cents).
The perfume on the stick is room freshener quality. It has an interesting musty quality - old moss and dust and mould with a spray of shoe conditioner and pine disinfectant. I wouldn't call it pleasant, but it is intriguing.
The burn is modest - damp florals, old fashioned rose perfume, a touch of dry, faded sandalwood. It's acceptable everyday room freshener incense.

Machine extruded everyday perfumed incense. A modern perfume accord; it's a pleasant scent, mostly floral - sweet rose with hints of strawberry, supported by a soft woody base - clean, slightly creamy sandalwood. Burns nicely and inoffensively. A decent room freshener.
Sticks are 8 inches with 6 inches of fragrant paste which has a slightly sharp liquid volatility. Moderate flame when lit, producing some black smoke. Decent volume of grey smoke when smouldering. Sticks burn for around 40-50 minutes. The scent informs the room gently but firmly. 14g box of about 12 sticks; MRP 15 Rupees (appox 15p). Available in the UK in 30g boxes from Amazon for £3.99 including delivery. Or £3.29 for 100g in a zipper pouch from AhaBazaar. The wording on the pack is "A clean refreshing and long lasting aroma that will transform your surroundings into a blissful state." I think that's a fair statement. It is a calming and pleasant aroma. The bliss is, of course, relative. Bindu has several meanings, though appears to centre around the concept of a dot or point. That point could be the centre of creation.
All in all a decent everyday stick with a room freshener floral accented scent. Well made and good value.
