The aromatic richness of their products is pleasing to nearly everyone and the assortment can provide the best available in incense of all types as well as essential oils and aromatherapy candles.Although dating the origins of the history of incense is often non-specific, there is mention of its use dating back 5,000 BC. Additionally, there is mention of the main ingredients in many types of incense in the Bible, frankincense and myrrh, almost exclusive to Somalia.
With the art of making incense spanning thousands of years, the artisan of Nandi incense still combined the dry ingredients the same way they did hundreds of years ago.Often used at funerals to cover the odor of decay or in rooms where a large number of people gathered prior to the use of personal deodorant. It was also used to ward off evil spirits in some civilizations and its use was not limited to only one country or one religion.There are those who used incense simply because the liked the smell.
In the early days of the history of incense making it was considered a work of art and a skill that requires the knowledge of not only the types of ingredients to be used, but also in what proportion.The aromatic ingredients and base mixture had to be exact to insure it would continue to smolder once the flames were fanned out and the mixture was evenly distributed. This would insure the effects of the incense were consistent throughout the burning process.
It also assures that each batch of Nandi incense will provide the same aroma from day to day as well as year to year.Additionally, there are some scents for which essential oils are not available and the use of artificial chemicals is necessary, such as watermelon, lily of the valley and cannabis.
Throughout the history of incense two main types have evolved, the direct burning incense, which is lit and allowed to smolder until it is finished and non-burning incense, which involves placing a piece of the raw material used in the scent on top of a burning medium, such as charcoal, allowed to smolder with the medium.
