Very attractive Flora style soaked oil fragrance on the stick. Nips of icy volatiles among the musk and candy powder. Pleasant florals and creamy caramel weave their way through the wool-tinged accord. A delightful blend of attars and modern aroma-chemicals. This, for me, leans more in the direction of the makers in Pune than Mumbai. There is a wonderful blend of Persian/Arabian incense tradition with Indian incense tradition in this stick; such as happens in Pune or with incense makers who have ancestors who were strongly involved in the Mughal Empire, or who are followers of Islam. There is a similarity to incense by Jahargirdar of Pune.
Delightful aroma on the burn. Warm, sweet, slightly musky sandalwood base with little olfactory forays here and there, mostly floral tinged. A really soft and tasty and comforting yet thrilling accord. Rose, dark woods, and caramel are the main takeaways. This is a very engaging and enjoyable incense. I love it.
