Pushkar is a scent of distant bonfires pervading the cool autumnal air. Sweet gentle incense derived from agarwood intertwines with a warm balsamic note creating a scent that is perfect for a day when one feels unreasonably stressed. Its serene soothing quality never fails to make one feel comforted. Unlike a citrusy element present in unburned frankincense or a charcoal redolent facet of its burned variety, the character of incense in Pushkar is soft and smooth, lacking sharp resinous edges. If it spoke, it would have a mellifluous voice. An almost floral character of its wood notes contrasts beautifully with a whisper of sweet smoke.
