Curious about Temu, and about local Chinese incense, I randomly ordered a bunch of Chinese incense from supposedly small, local incense makers. Each piece of incense that arrived was individually packed inside the main bag, and each had their own customs sheet showing the name and address of the incense maker. I noted that the majority had the same packaging and logo, albeit different manufacturer names and address. The other thing, in addition to the logo and packaging, that they have in common is that the addresses are in Fujian province in the south-east of China, so I have loosely named them "Fujian Incense". I notice that they are also available from Shein and AliExpress. Indeed, all three platforms appear to sell similar products in a similar manner, and at very low prices. There are questions and concerns about all three platforms - it is unclear if the concerns are valid or politically motivated. I am new to all three platforms, but the products I have received have been decent quality at bargain prices. And the "Fujian Incense" I have burned has been very satisfactory, and is among the most enjoyable and best quality incense I have had from China.

Conclusion: A decent company making delicate and attractive Asian incense. The small sticks are a little inconvenient and mild for most uses, but for days when I want something mild or delicate, I could see myself turning to this Chinese company. And they have turned my head regarding Chinese (and Asian incense), so I will be paying more attention in future.
