Zed Black Natural Deep-Chandan, Deep-Gulab, Arij, Attar Phool and Saffron Incense Dhoop Sticks Tin - Combo of 5(45 Pieces Each)

I have been using Zed Black dhoops for a number of years now, buying them in small cardboard packages from retailers. This is the 1st time that I have bought in tin packing and from Amazon India. I love the smell of Zed Black dhoops, and I have used many variants of these. The longevity (burning time) of the dhoop is about the same as any standard dhoop sticks available in the market - about 35 to 45 minutes per dhoop. This is the 1st time I have bought these dhoops in tin packaging. The packing can be made better. Either smaller tins can be used or more dhoops should be packed in the can to make the contents more tightly packed. The dhoop stand inside each tin moves around very freely, and is breaking a few dhoops during shipment. I have just opened 1 can of Attar Phool variant till now. The count was approximately 43 to 45 pieces in the can, with 2 or 3 pieces broken. The length and diameter of these is the same as the Zed Black dhoops available in small cardboard packages. I paid Rs. 350 for a bundle of 5 cans of these dhoop on Amazon India, which works out about the same per dhoop compared to smaller cardboard packs. Considering that you have to buy a lot of dhoop at 1 time as a bundle, the price should be lowered.

I have been purchasing it since long due to following reasons: (1) in our tradition burning of bamboo is prohibited due to scientific reasons (search Google☺️). Hence don’t use incense sticks which uses bamboos. (2) convenience in lighting and using. (3) fragrances seems good. (4) packaging: here I must point out that the products received on last delivery had put three tin containers in bad shape damaging few sticks inside. It should be taken care of in future. (5) reasonably priced.

Good product.👌

Not so great. The fragrance does not have projection and is not that evident in the room. Not a good buy

I was a little sceptikal when i decided to order. Was waiting to post review after 1 month of use. The best thing is that fragrance last, even after the sticks burn out. Also if i keep i just a single bathi burning at the entrance hall, the scent spreads to inner rooms and I'm talking about spacious single house, not a congested apartment. Even then the fragrance reached the inner rooms and lasted long as well. That was one worry i had before purchase, but now i'm very much happy with the results. As for the scents, i personally prefer the Gulab and the Saffron. Both are very subtle as well as rich in their fragrances. Mogra lends a very strong jasmine scent. Athar Phool is also a bit too strong. Chandan is okay-okay. Not bad. I love those tiny and sturdy incense holders also. Altogether, it is worth every penny that you spent.
