Nandita Planet 9 Masala Incense Sticks Review

The Planet 9 is one of the finest masala incense sticks we have burned inside our home. It might not be dazzling to look at, neither is the packaging extraordinary, but the sweet fragrance emitted from each stick is more than enough for us to fall in love with this one.

Fragrance = 9 / 10

The Planet 9 masala agarbatti does not fiddle around with your senses. It hits you sweetly and it hits you right away. You will be wondering what it is you are smelling, is it vanilla, peppermint, cinnamon or mace?

Potency = 9 / 10

The Planet 9 is an extremely potent masala agarbatti. We found ourselves feeling elated and joyous almost instantly. It works on our senses within seconds. It has a distinctly sweet smell. It is ultra relaxing and supremely comforting to take in the fragrance of this incense stick.

Scent Effect = 9 / 10

The Planet 9 is flaming hot. It has multiple effects on us. Just one incense stick is enough to make us feel elated and happy, then relaxed and comfortable, we want to just lay back and smell its rich fragrance for hours on end. It's one of the most effective incense sticks to use for relaxation and unwinding after a long day at work.

Longevity = 9 / 10

The scent longevity is great. The sweet fragrance lingers inside our home for at least 4 hours. It must be lingering longer inside homes where only this stick has been burned and no other. We tend to burn 10 sticks a day inside our prayer room and living room so the longevity of one scent is usually overpowered by the next one burned.

Burn Time = 7 / 10

The Nandita Planet 9 masala agarbatti has a decent burn time. Each stick last for 35 minutes or thereabouts. It's almost the same as most Satya and other Nandita incense sticks we have used.

Quality = 8 / 10

The materials used to make the masala paste onto which the sticks are rolled onto must be of the finest quality. It is a genuine hand rolled masala incense from Nandita Fragrances.

Visual Appeal = 7 / 10

There is not much merriment as far as the visual appeal of the Planet 9 is concerned. The stick and the outer box look ordinary.

Gift Worthy = 9 / 10

The Planet 9 would make an excellent gift for those who have never smelled a truly Indian masala incense and want to try one out. Its effects are soothing, relaxing and wonderful. Anyone who needs to lower their stress or wishes to unwind quickly after a tiring, grueling day would benefit from this Nandita masala incense.

Packaging = 6 / 10

The quality of the outer box must be improved. The Planet 9 is too good a masala incense to be pushed into such ordinary packaging. The outer box must be made more soothing, colorful and stand out with the pictures used.

Value For Money = 9 / 10

The value for money on the Planet 9 is fantastic. Nandita Fragrances has smartly priced this one at a competitive price. In fact, the 250 gram box is much cheaper. The retail cost is just Rs.350 which is quite cheap for such a high quality masala incense from South India.

Health Risk = Low

The Planet 9 is a compassionate, tender and soothing masala incense stick. It is one of those masala incenses that probably have the least health risk.

The Nandita Planet 9 is sweet, unique and unsurpassed. The sweet fragrance is something that anyone will remember for ages to come. Its fragrance is pretty similar to the Zed Black Yoga Sirsasana Premium incense stick. And the Sirsasana is one of our favorites.
