Masala Saffron Sandal Incense Sticks pair sandalwood oil with saffron powder in a hand-rolled masala stick - sandalwood-forward, with saffron adding a softer richness rather than taking over the scent.
It's worth being straightforward about what "saffron" means on an incense label. Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world by weight, harvested by hand from crocus flowers in quantities small enough that a meaningful amount would cost far more than this entire box. What that means in practice is that saffron here functions as a fragrance note in the blend, not as a specification of how much real saffron went into it - the supplier does not publish a percentage, and we are not going to imply one.
Sandalwood is doing the heavier lifting in the actual scent profile, which the name reflects by putting it second: this is a sandalwood-forward stick with saffron as an accent rather than an equal partner in the blend.
Each stick is hand-rolled using the traditional masala method, worked as a paste onto a bamboo core, and arrives in a colorful handmade box at 15 grams - a size built for trying the blend or for regular use in meditation, relaxation, or simply setting a calmer mood in a room, rather than for a large stockpile that would sit around losing freshness before it's finished.
Light the tip, let it glow briefly, then gently blow out the flame and rest the stick in a stable heat-safe holder, keeping it away from drafts for an even burn. More sandalwood-forward sticks sit in our Incense Sticks collection, and the wider incense range - cones, ropes, and powders included - sits in our Incense collection.
