You came looking for great value incense. We found something better.
Most incense you’ll find online, on market stalls, or in health food shops is what the industry calls a dipped stick — a charcoal bamboo stick dipped in synthetic fragrance oil. Fast. Cheap. Smelling the same everywhere.
Even products labelled “natural Masala” often follow almost the same formula — a charcoal base with synthetic fragrance oils, chemical binders, and a coating of brown powder. The wrapper changes. The quality doesn’t.
We do things differently.
Monsoon Incense carries only genuine hand-rolled Masala incense — natural ingredients, no synthetic oils, no chemical binders, no charcoal base. Instead of charcoal we use coconut shell powder — a cleaner, cooler-burning natural alternative. Every product is sourced exclusively from specialist producers in southern India where manufacturing standards and raw material quality are consistently higher.
You may have known us as Good Incense. The name changed in 2024. The standards didn’t.
What the experts say
The Olfactory Rescue Service (ORS) is the oldest and most respected incense review platform in the world. This is what they wrote about us:
“There are honestly a lot of nice incenses in this line — it’s a line that intrigues me quite a bit, definitely quality but not having the hallmarks of incenses more commonly seen in the west. It’s the kind of trend you hope for.”
