Fumino Cinnamon Apple Clove


A Satya style incense from Fumino, an incense and home decor brand owned by Inbound To Anglia Ltd, a one man company currently based in Southampton. The incense is made in Bangalore by an unnamed third generation company, a description which matches Satya.  Six pack deals on Amazon are available for under £10. 

This one is functionally named Cinnamon Apple Clove, which seems typical of cinnamon apple scented incense, such as Hari Darshan Red Apple Cinnamon and HEM Cinnamon-Apple. There is a perfumed fragrance on the stick, which leans more on men's cologne than apple or cinnamon. It's a warm, woody, mineral, marine, aroma, quite appealing and mildly sexy and seductive. 


The blurb on the back


The scent on the burn is vague, woody, mildly smoky, though has elements of the fragrance on the stick. It's a modest, though attractive, scent, and makes a pleasant, warming room freshener. I'm not getting a sense of any of the named ingredients - this is not a fragrance to "bring to mind the comforting smell of a freshly baked apple pie". It is a decent scent from a decently made incense stick, the sort of thing that Satya do, though perhaps not to the same quality or strength. This is a decent enough, modest, gentle, relaxing, warming everyday room freshener at a good price. Perhaps a bit too much smoke in comparison to scent, but that's not a major complaint.
