BIC Panchavati Black Musk Premium Incense Sticks

 



Machine extruded perfumed incense sticks. 10 sticks in a standard cardboard packet. Sells for 15 rupees in India (approx 15p). I am not aware of it being sold outside of India. The pack is an attractive glossy black with lettering and design in gold. It has a beguiling image of a deer, which references the musk fragrance; though musk is not extracted from deer these days - it either comes from the mallow plant, or is created synthetically.  This is a pleasant synthetic musk fragrance, and it works well as a low cost low level room fragrance.  Well made, decently done everyday incense. Warms and calms the room. 

Having scored it, and placed it on my tiered list of reviewed incense, I noted that I gave the same score and a similar review to BIC's Almíscar (Musk) and Balaji's Musk. Balaji and BIC merged last year, so are the same company now. Even without that relationship, there's not really a lot of difference between most everyday single scent perfumed-incenses. Well, those made by decent companies anyway.  Single scent perfumed incense largely falls into three areas: there's bargain basement stuff, acceptable everyday stuff, and decent everyday stuff.  And most falls into acceptable everyday. Which is where this lands.
