Namaste India Nag Champa Incense Sticks blend sandalwood, magnolia and night queen fragrance notes into a calming floral-woody masala, made from natural ingredients and free from harmful substances.
Naming three notes is the useful thing here. Nag Champa is one of the most widely made incense profiles in the world and most listings say nothing at all about how a given house builds theirs — you buy it and find out. This one specifies what is in the blend, which lets you know in advance whether it is the version you want.
Sandalwood is the expected foundation and it is doing the expected job, giving the whole thing a woody base to sit on. The magnolia and the night queen are what make this version distinct: two florals rather than one, pushing the blend further toward the floral side than the most familiar Nag Champas go.
Night queen in particular is an unusual inclusion. Raat ki rani opens after dark and is noticeably heavier and sweeter than a daytime flower, so it adds weight to the floral half rather than lightness, and the blend lands richer than a straightforward champa.

One thing we will not do is quote a burn time. The supplier states none for this product and prints no stick count, and while other Namaste masala sticks state thirty to forty-five minutes, a figure borrowed from a sibling is a guess rather than a fact.
No holder comes in the pack, so set out a fire-safe holder before lighting, on a stable, heat-resistant surface, and burn in a well-ventilated room away from children and pets. More florals sit in our Incense Sticks collection.
