Ranga Rao Flute Incense Sandal




Part of a 6 for £5 deal in Gillingham market, Flute Incense Sandal by N. Ranga Rao & Sons of Mysore, are cheap, basic, thinly machine dipped incense sticks using chemical fragrances. The appearance is black, mat charcoal, which smears down the handle of the undyed bamboo stick. The incense is laid on fairly thinly and burns quickly. There is little sense of sandalwood in the aroma, and is not essentially different to the same company's Lavender incense. There is not a lot of perfume, but when it does waft over it is acceptable. Mildly woody, warm, calming, with bergamot and a whiff of old ladies' evening perfume - a bit soapy, vaguely floral, and based on musk.

A basic, low cost incense. Not offensive, but not much good either.
