Siro Crushed Strawberry

 


A hex pack of machine-made everyday room-freshener incense by Siro Fragrances of Bangalore. They also seem to trade under the name Vriya, selling the same products. It's a new company for me, and I haven't been able to get much information. Their website has copyright 2018 on it, so it's possible that's when they were founded, or that's just the date they set up the website.  Looking up their address in Bangalore on Google Maps doesn't show anything.  This Australian wholesale site says that Siro incense is made by the same people as make Satya Nag Champa. Hmmm. Possibly a translation issue. There's some Amazon customer reviews from buyers in USA in 2018 which are varied. They were sold in the Netherlands, and are currently sold by Ephra World in Germany at a reduced price of 99 Euros. 

There is a bright synthetic fruit scent on the stick, along with a lot of volatility and pine disinfectant. There is a vague synthetic strawberry aroma on the burn. It's not good. I shall be putting the pack out in the outhouse to keep the cat's happy. To be fair, this is not quite an offensive incense scent, but there are better, brighter, more uplifting scents to burn in the house.
