Grounding fragrances to bring you back to your centre.
Amber
Delightfully soft and sweet, with a woody base that makes it grounding and earthy. It is a calming and pleasant fragrance. Use its soothing warmth to relax.
If you like Amber but you are looking for something stronger, you might like Om in The Mother's India Fragrances range.
Frankincense
An incense of biblical renown, traditionally made from a resin called 'olibanum'. For our frankincense, a little rose has been added to this resin, to create a sweet, woody fragrance that is perfectly suited to everyday use. It is grouding, calming and earthy.
Frankincense can help with depression and anxiety and is a known anti-inflammatory.
The olibanum is a resin harvested from the Boswelia tree. Overharvesting and climate change have put this tree at risk in the Horn of Africa and the Arabian peninsula, but please rest assured that we only use Indian frankincense.
If you like the resinous properties of frankincense, you might like to try 'Chandra', a distinctive and outstanding fragrance in our 'online only' range. 'Dhyana' in the same range carries a lot of frankincense too.
Patchouli
The distinctive fragrance of patchouli leaves, softened with a hint of rose and enriched with a variety of herbs. The old favourite with a modern twist.
The scent of patchouli, which is a plant closely related to our mint, is said to be uplifting and promoting of peace and calmness. Patchouli can as such help to relieve anxiety, depression, and stress.
If you like Patchouli but you are looking for something stronger, try 'Lila' or 'Aditi'. And we can also wholeheartedly recommend 'Bhakti', where patchouli plays a large supporting role to a beautiful mellow rose.
Sandalwood
In Indian traditions, sandalwood is highly valued for its cooling and balancing properties. It is believed to pacify pitta dosha, which represents fire and heat in the body.
Sandalwood incense is used to promote relaxation, calm the mind, reduce anxiety, and promote mental clarity. As such it is a great aid to meditation.
Due to its wonderful properties, sandalwood is used in the making of all the woody Mother's Fragrances. You can recognize these by their brown sticks. You will also find sandalwood in all our India Fragrances.
If you are in particular looking for a stronger version of our Mother's Fragrances sandalwood incense, you might like to try Yoga or Buddha.
We only use sustainable plantation-grown Indian sandalwood in the making of our incense.
