Living in India is undoubtedly a full sensorial experience. It’s a country with a deep history in Ayurvedic therapy that comes down to even the sense of smell. Take a walk in the early morning through a small town in India and you will experience it first hand. You will be immediately captivated by a variety of fragrances like incense burning from homes for daily pooja offerings and the tropical flowers and trees that grow wildly throughout the streets and gardens. Living in bustling Bangalore, we might not get the same peace and healing sensorial experience from a walk down the road as in rural parts of the country, but lucky for us, there are Made in India brands that are bringing healing essences into your home with their luxury fragrance lines. From candles to oil aromas, room mists, and incense, keep reading to see some of our favorite brands and products that will make you feel like you’ve stepped into one of India’s five-star hotels the second you walk in your front door.
