Balarama Zam Zam Frankincense

  


Quite a green, almost mouldy, aroma on the stick. Interesting, though not exactly attractive or inviting. Fairly volatile and chemical. Perfumed. Old stale damp roses. Ho hum. I generally like Balarama made incense, especially these long sticks, be they branded Zam Zam or Kuumba; but there are incenses by Balarama that I haven't liked. I suspect this is going to be one of those I don't like. 

The scent on the burn is more attractive - somewhat sweet and resinous with a gentle woody warmth. Little real awareness of frankincense, but there is some sense of it - just not that deep. It does develop into a warm, musty, sweet, resinous fragrance which I am somewhat enjoying. Yeah, it's OK.
