NagChampa Insens

The incense is known to the Chinese since the Neolithic times, and probably one of the few differences from the incense urned then and the one from the modern times, is the varieties it can be found in. India has its own tradition with the incense, and many incense bear the name of 'champa', but only if they contain Plumeria (or Frangipani).

For instance, in India, Nag Champa is a specific type of perfume, and it is used in incense as well, and this type of incense is called Nag Champa incense. Since there are more types of incense, including shapes, one will have Nag Champa incense sticks or cone, or whatever other shape is made in.

If you want to know more about the Nag Champa agarbatti - if you want to use the Indian denomination – has a secret formula used in it, and there are actually more formulas used for it. This is because this secret scent was created first in Hindu and Buddhist monasteries across India and Nepal, the formula is secret because it hasn't been shared with the outsiders. A different formula means that the Nag Champa incense will smell slightly different from one provider to the other.

The Nag Champa scent got even more popular after famous artists burned it during their concerts, and probably the best known artist to do so is o Dylan. Other artists decided to compose songs about this scent: Stevie Nicks and her 'Illume 9/11' on the 'Say you will' album.

If you just got so curious about this scent, and what it smells like, then a little online research will bring you many sites selling it.
