Short and simple. Highly perfumed sticks. Decent quality - no off-notes either on the stick or the burn (which have similar scents), though there is a fair degree of volatility, possibly from aldehydes, which can be quite icy in the nose and cause headaches. The scent is sweet, fruity, soapy, perfumed. There may be herbs and flowers in the mix, but the accord assaults me more with the fruits. Lagging slightly behind are faint, delicate florals. It's an OK accord, but does feel more like a "fruity fresh" bubble bath than what most would associate with incense. I like incense makers who are modern and bold and come up with new and lively scent accords, such as this No. 10; however, pleasant though it is, it doesn't touch my soul or my intellect. This is too familiar as an everyday scent associated with room fresheners, and various bathroom lotions and potions, to tickle my interest.
Essentially this is well made, decent quality incense with a pleasant and attractive scent, though too familiar as an everyday home fragrance to spark much interest. But it is likeable, and I'm quite happy to burn these sticks around the house. They are well behaved, and, though the scent (as most perfumed incense does) fades rather than lingers, it does sweetly inform the room with an acceptable and inoffensive fragrance.

This was part of a Variety pack, commonly available in America, though also available on UK Amazon for just under £12 including delivery.
