Inca Aromas


 
Inca Aromas are a  Brazil incense house. Their incense can be found on the USA website Exotic Incense, who export to the UK. I'm curious about the connection between the company and the Inca Empire culture. The company was founded in 1993, with the current owners taking over in 2001, and moving the factory to its current location in Brazil in 2009. The two best known incenses associated with indigenous peoples of South America are palo santo wood and copal resin.  I have asked the company for more info about the Inca connection, and they put me on to the original owner, But he has not responded.  

Brazil has a strong incense culture. They import a large amount of incense, primarily from India, and there are a number of small local incense producers, such as Inca AromasBright Side, and Nirvana, which export, mainly to the US.

Conclusion: I like this incense house. The incense is a little different, and the association with the Incas is very compelling. The scents are fresh, heady, earthy, natural.  I'm interested in exploring more incense from Inca Aromas, and more incense from Brazil.
