Nandita is a natural masala incense brand with roots in Udupi, Karnataka, known for hand-rolled sticks in distinctive, often playfully named fragrances.
About Nandita
Nandita Fragrances was founded by Sri K.Y. Acharya, who moved from a small village in Udupi, Karnataka to Mumbai as a teenager and built the brand over decades of work. The company today operates a head office in Mumbai alongside a retail store in Udupi, and continues to export its incense internationally.
What Makes Nandita Distinctive
Nandita describes its incense as natural masala incense made with rare herbs, resins, and essential oils rather than synthetic fragrance oils, hand-rolled in the traditional style. The company states it avoids restricted forest products and endangered-species materials in its ingredients, and exports to more than 40 countries.

How to Burn Nandita Incense Safely
Light the tip of the stick until it glows, then blow out the flame so it smolders in a heatproof holder over a fire-safe surface. Burn in a well-ventilated room away from flammable materials, and never leave burning incense unattended.
