GIRI is an Indian online shop specialising in bhakti (religious devotion) supplies. It is based in Chennai in Tamil Nadu, though doesn't make incense itself, so sources from incense factories across India, such as Parimal, and Aadinath Enterprises of Ahmedabad, who made these Sandal sticks.
This is a standard machine-extruded perfumed stick for everyday use. There is the usual sense of synthetic aroma compounds - soapy, volatile, pleasant, corporate. It smells more like a sandalwood soap than a proper earthy, spicy sandalwood oil. When lit the flame sends up black smoke, which I tend to associate with the use of DEP to make the scent go further.
The scent on the burn is pleasant with a gentle drift of softly sweet and musky sandalwood. It is fairly clean. A decently made stick. There is nothing special about this stick, but it does what it does well. It informs and fragrances the room with a pleasant sandalwood aroma. Job done.
