Song of India Incense

The Song of India incense has rated right up there with the Primo Patchouli incense, in my book! 

Song of India is an India temple Incense.  It has a very fine fragrance that matches and blends into the human scense of scents.  It’s so plesant that you don’t realize that incense is even burning.    When you enter the room — It’s like HEAVEN!!!   The scent lingers in the room for several hours after the incense has gone out.  This finly scented incense is availabe in candle, stick, perfume and…..coming soon…..cones.

The best part, though, is that R-Expo (owner of the trademark) donates a portion from the sale of thiir products to benefit the needy children of India.

Quality of Incense

The quality of incense I’ve burned that I’ve gotten from you blows away anything I’ve ever gotten from the dollar store.  I’ve tried several different scents and varieties and love them all!  I will never buy dollar store stuff again.

If you like HEM Moon Incense…..

If you like HEM Moon Incense…..you might also like HEM The Planet incense.  They go right along together in scent.  The scent also lingers in the room for  quite some time after the stick has finished burning.

This product will be available soon at Scent Dragon

What is a Grade 1 Soap?

Grade 1 is the highest category laid down by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The grading of the soap is determined by the percentage of Total Fatty Matter (TFM) in the soap. TFM content is the ratio of mass of the fatty content to the mass of the soap. So, the higher the TFM the better and purer is the soap. The TFM of a Grade 1 soap is minimum 76% with no fillers (least number of additives), thus making it a purer soap. The soap with the higher TFM gives more lather, lasts longer and, more importantly, cleans better.

The goodness of soap lies in the % of TFM contained in it. A high quality (Grade 1) soap has to contain 76%TFM. Least quality soap (Grade 3) at least 60%.

 

For more information about true soap visit this Wikipedia page.

What does ayurvedic mean? Ayurvedic originates from Sanskrit ?yurvedah? : ?yuh?, meaning “life,” “life principle,” or “long life” and the word veda, which refers to a system of “knowledge.” Thus “Ayurveda” roughly translates as the “knowledge of life” or “knowledge of a long life”.

Primo Patchouli

I’m not a patchouli person…..I don’t usually care for the deep earthy smell that most patchouli fragrances have.  However I was looking for a gift for a friend who loves the fragrance.  I asked Live help for advice on which one to choose as there were several different patchouli’s available.  They suggested the Primo Pure & Natural Real Patchouli Incense.  When I received it, of course I had to smell it, and I have found a Patchouli I really like.  Primo Patchouli.  It’s not as earthy, as most patchouli fragrances I’ve smelled.  It’s got sort of a sweet smell to it.  This is the only patchouli I will buy and burn.  I had to place another order just to get a package for me since I gave the original one I purchased to my friend (who also really likes it too).  You can purchase it online from Scent Dragon.  I’m glad I asked live help for their opinion.
