Bangalore Incense Store Jaygee's Navami

 


Powdery sweet with neutral mineral notes supported by a soft pale sandalwood. Some spice. Some  honey. Florals. Herbs. A curious though pleasant melange. Not quite sure what the accord is saying. It's a mild and acceptable "incense" fragrance. Quite soft and restrained. It's not doing much for me. There's nothing here that's offensive or off. It is genuinely quite pleasant, with soft fresh sandalwood shavings, and a general sense of decent incense. It's just that it's not doing much. It's a clean, safe, almost timid aroma. There's no beauty here. No story, Little to interest me. Good stuff. But unexciting. 

The scent on the burn is soft, gentle, inoffensive, and largely indifferent. It's hardly here - shuffling around quietly in the corner, saying and doing very little. Ho hum. 

Available from Bangalore Incense at 50g for £1.07 ($1.41, 125 Rupees). Bangalore Incense ships internationally. [As of May 2026 there is a glitch that multiplies  by a thousand the price when it comes to purchase. So a £2 (or $2) incense becomes £2,000. Jaygee has told me that if folks contact him on WhatsApp (+91-8549904990) he'll give them the true (and much lower!) cost. In the meantime he is working to fix the glitch.]
