Named after the Krishna pilgrimage town of Mayapur, this is an attractive floral focused masala incense sold in the Krishna pilgrimage town of Vrindavan, though made elsewhere, possibly Pune. I've been enjoying these Vrindavan incense sticks. They are well made, decent quality, with pleasant scents. And stunningly cheap. This one is warm, mildly sweet, slightly powdery, an attractive balance of wood and floral with touches of that lambs wool scent I associate with halmaddi. It's not a scent that particularly excites or delights, nevertheless it is damned attractive, and is extraordinary value for money. If I wasn't so compelled to go incense hunting, I'd be quite happy to buy huge stocks of varied scents of Vrindavan sold incense, and burn them all the time as my everyday incense.
Available at £1.06 for 20gm from Vrindavan Bazaar. They ship internationally at reasonable rates.
