The range
Collection 01 · Still
For the hours that ask for nothing.
Two fragrances from the outdoors. Magic Lavender is a lavender field at violet hour: herbal, cool, softly powdered. Forest Dew is a wooded path after rain: green leaves, pine and damp earth. Both are composed dry, never sweet, so they stay in the background where calm lives.
Aromatic floral · Unwound
Lavender fields at violet hour
Lavender at violet hour: flower, bergamot and clary sage over soft tonka and cedar. Composed for the end of the day, when the lights go low and nothing more is asked of you.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensGreen woody · Refreshed
Wet leaves, first light
A forest path before the sun arrives: crushed leaves, pine and the smell of rain on earth. The freshest fragrance in the range, for rooms that need a window opened.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensCollection 02 · Curious
For the evenings you feel curious.
Three fragrances inspired by aromas the old trade routes carried. Dragon's Blood is dark red resin and slow fire. White Sage is dry herb and open sky. Palo Santo is sweet wood with a citrus edge. We borrow the scent and name where it comes from. We make no claims for it.
Resinous amber · Bold
Deep red resin, slow fire
Inspired by the deep red resin of the old incense routes: blood orange and clove, a resin and rose heart, amber and patchouli beneath. The boldest fragrance in the range, for after dark.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensAromatic herbal · Uncluttered
Dry herbs, open sky
The scent of a dry hillside in the sun: sage leaf, eucalyptus and lemon over cedar and hay. We borrow the aroma and name where it comes from. Dry, airy, never sweet.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensWoody balsamic · Warm
Sweet wood, slow smoke
Inspired by the holy wood of South America's dry forests: lemon zest and pine resin over sweet wood, frankincense and benzoin. Warm, bright and welcoming. We borrow the scent, with respect.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensCollection 03 · Devoted
For the first lamp of the day.
The two fragrances of the Indian altar. Royal Sandal is temple wood: saffron above, rose within, sandal all the way down. Nag Champa is the champa flower on sandal, the classic made clear again. For puja, for meditation, or for the ten quiet minutes before the house wakes.
Creamy woody · Devoted
The temple wood
The fragrance of sandal paste ground on stone at dawn: saffron and cardamom above, rose within, sandal and khus beneath. Composed for the first lamp of the day, and for meditation.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.

Champa flowers on sandal
The classic, composed again: champa flower and ylang-ylang over sandal, honey and a halmaddi-style resin. The fragrance that travelled from the Indian altar to the world, made clear again for the daily lamp.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensCollection 04 · Radiant
For the evenings you dress for.
One fragrance, composed in layers like a pearl. Oriental Pearl Mystery opens with bergamot, pear and a thread of saffron, turns to jasmine, orange blossom and orris, and rests on amber, sandal and a whisper of oud. Offered in Signature and Gift editions only.
Amber floral · Radiant
Amber, white flowers, a held breath
Composed in layers, like a pearl: bergamot and pear on the surface, jasmine and orris beneath, amber, sandal and a whisper of oud at the centre. For the evenings that matter.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensCollection 05 · Balanced
For the room you are arranging.
Three fragrances from two traditions, kept distinct. From Feng Shui: Metal, cool and precise, and Water, deep and flowing. From Ayurveda: Vata Dosha, the warmth and sweetness the tradition pairs with air and space. Inspired by these systems. No claims made on their behalf.
Clean mineral musk · Precise
Clear, bright, precise
Inspired by the Metal element of Feng Shui, which the tradition links with clarity and order. Aldehydes, white tea and cool cedar: crisp, pale and precise, like cold air and clean linen.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensAquatic floral · Flowing
Deep, flowing, still
Inspired by the Water element of Feng Shui, which the tradition links with depth and flow. Sea salt and water mint over lotus and water lily, with driftwood beneath. Cool, quiet and fluid.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensWarm spicy woody · Grounded
Warm, sweet, rooted
Inspired by Ayurveda, which pairs warmth and sweetness with Vata, the dosha of air and space. Sweet orange and ginger over cinnamon and tulsi, rooted in khus and sandal. A fragrance, not a treatment.
Proposed notes. To be confirmed with the maker.
Tell me when this opensWhat a dhoop bar is
Dhoop is incense made as a solid bar, with no bamboo core. You break off a small piece, set it on a stand or a heat-resistant plate, light one end and blow out the flame so it glows. One bar gives many uses.
Weight, burn time and what is in the box will be on this page and on every pack once they are confirmed. Not before.
