SATYA: Super Hit – Sweet, Balsamic Masala Incense

Super Hit by SATYA: the house's second classic after Nag Champa and, alongside it, one of the two best selling incense sticks on the planet. Handmade in India.

Scent profile

Sweeter and more balsamic than nag champa, with a very recognisable vanilla and resin base. It is warm and enveloping, one of those scents that fills a whole room without ever feeling aggressive.

What masala means

The aromatic paste — resins, ground woods, herbs and oils — is kneaded and applied to the stick by hand. The scent is built into the product, it burns evenly and it lingers well after the stick has gone.

When to burn it

It works very well as an everyday scent at home and in quiet moments. If you find nag champa a little dry, Super Hit is its sweeter, warmer counterpart.
