FROM THE HOUSE OF ARADHYAKRIPA
FRAGRANCE FOR THE DIVINE
CRAFTED FOR DEVOTION
Made right for Puja

In Hindu tradition, gandha (fragrance) is a core part of the Shodasha Upachāra (16-step ritual service), not just a room freshener.

Lighting incense is preparing a samagri (offering) for the deity. This offering serves two purposes: to please the deity and to create a sāttvik (pure, divine) atmosphere.

This sacred fragrance calms the devotee's mind, removes distractions, and aids focus for dhyāna (meditation) and japa.

Our Promise: Clean & Sacred

Bamboo-Free

In many paramparās, bamboo (baans) is tied to family/lineage and is not offered to fire. Also, burning bamboo can release silica-rich particulate that’s harsh for indoor air, so our incense is bamboo-free.

Charcoal-Free

Pūjā fire has always favoured natural woods/resins, not industrial charcoal. Charcoal smoke raises indoor PM 2.5 & toxic compounds, so we keep it out; gentler for your home mandir and lungs.

Guided by Gandha-Shāstra

Our blends are inspired by Gandhaśāstra/Gandhayukti-classical Indian knowledge on preparing perfumes and aromatic offerings; so the fragrance you offer follows authentic knowledge, not guesswork.

Temple Flower Re-use

We respectfully upcycle temple-offered flowers, giving sacred petals a second life as incense. It honors the offering and helps keep flowers, and their pesticide residue, out of our rivers.

IFRA Approved Fragrances

We choose fragrance inputs that follow IFRA Standards, the global benchmark for safe use of fragrance materials, so your worship space stays śuddha and breathe-safe by design.

कस्तूरीतिलकं ललाटपटले वक्षःस्थले कौस्तुभं। नासाग्रे नवमौक्तिकं करतले वेणुं करे कङ्कणम्॥

This famous śloka paints the divine picture of the Lord. “Upon His forehead (lalāta-patale) is the Kasturi-Tilakam (the mark of musk); upon his chest, the Kaustubha gem; on his nose a pearl, in his hand a flute, and on his wrist a bracelet.” And why Kasturi? Because this deep, devotional fragrance is named in the very first word of his description. It is the sacred scent of his shringāra (adornment). Offering this Kasturi fragrance is to meditate on his all-attractive form, the Gopala Choodamani (crest-jewel of the cowherds), and to feel his immediate, beloved presence.
