Natural Flower Dust
Instead of charcoal, we use finely processed flower dust as our primary burning base. This produces clean smoke and allows the essential oils to shine.
- Sourced from temple flower recycling programs
- Dried and processed into fine powder
- Burns cleanly without toxic byproducts
- Creates minimal ash residue
- Environmentally sustainable alternative to charcoal
Natural Resins
Plant-based resins hold our incense together while adding subtle aromatic notes. They burn slowly and evenly.
Gum Arabic
Natural binder from Acacia trees, odorless when burned
Benzoin Resin
Adds warm vanilla-like notes, used in traditional incense
Frankincense
Sacred resin with purifying properties
Aromatic Herbs & Spices
Traditional herbs and spices add depth and complexity to our fragrance profiles.
- Saffron (Kesar) - Premium spice for Kesar Chandan blend
- Vetiver (Khus) - Earthy, grounding notes
- Clove - Warm, spicy undertones
- Cardamom - Fresh, aromatic sweetness
