Blue Pearl Incense is an American brand distributed by Lotus Brands, which is a "majority woman-owned company" marketing products "in harmony with the planet". I like that idea. The Blue Pearl brand itself is associated with the Syda Foundation, which was set up in New York in 1974 by the Indian guru Muktananda. There is a website for the brand: BluePearl, but that gives little information about who actually owns the brand, or who makes the incense, other than the incense is made in India. Some of the incense is perfumed-charcoal, some is masala. Quality of scent in the range is variable, though the Champa is delightful. There have been rumours that either Haridas Madhavdas and/or Goloka make some of the sticks, though I don't think anything is certain. I have no doubt that the Patchouli is made by HMS.
Reviews
Scents: 4
Highest score: 41
Lowest score: 18
Average: 32
Conclusion: The incense quality is random, and it's possible that the sticks are made by different producers. I have somewhat less interest in own brand distributors than in the actual producers, and though some of the sticks are very good, because this brand is rather random, and conceals the actual maker(s), I have little interest in exploring further, though I will finish off reviewing the packets I have left.
