The problem is that patchouli in a synthetic carrier smells like a department store approximation of patchouli — present but artificial, the chemical edge of the carrier competing with the earthiness of the fragrance itself. In a phthalate-free formula, patchouli behaves the way it is supposed to — deep, rich, genuinely earthy, without anything synthetic interfering with it. Frankincense adds the meditative, slightly sacred resinous quality that patchouli alone cannot provide — the note that gives the room a character of its own rather than just a smell. Cedarwood grounds both with a dry woody depth that prevents the resinous notes from becoming heavy and gives the whole fragrance its staying power. The result is the earthy candle that people who burn incense have been looking for — without the paraffin, without the synthetic carriers, and without the plastic packaging that contradicts every value the candle is supposed to represent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- ABOUT --\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"pd-h2\"\u003eAbout SOSA Home \u0026amp; Body\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pd-about\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eSOSA is a bootstrapped Indian fragrance house\u003c\/strong\u003e built slowly and on purpose.
