Temple of India Scented Oil - Song of India - 8 ml Bottle

I don't know what it is about this scent but it's so divine! I have all of them - perfume, body wash and incense. It's really unique and exotic.

This oil has an amazing scent of incense. I’ve worn it for years and always get compliments. It’s a roll on glass container so you can control how much you want to put on. Gentle on skin and does not need to be diluted like some essential oils. ❤️

It took a bit of effort to get the stopper off- had to rock back and forth a few times then pull out. Within 5 minutes, my entire car now smells of this wonderful scent (I had also gotten the soap and incense sticks!) It's pretty potent, not gonna lie. Definitely worth the value for money- you get a ton for the price- a little dab will do ya for quite awhile!

It seems as if I'm one of the few people on this planet to have never smelled Song of India's Temple of India incense. This was truly a blind buy. While scent is incredibly subjective when it comes to how we perceive them, it is helpful when people try to describe how something smells. Before I try to do that with this oil, I wanted to mention that I've tried many Indian incenses and dhoop's over the years with Sai Baba Nag Champa (blue box) and Super Hits being my all time favorites along with Triloka's vanilla. While those are creamy, exotic, highly complex scents, Song of India's is a pure white soliflore. What exactly I'm not sure as there are a number of native Indian flowers that I've yet to experience but it smells closest to a non-indolic jasmine. It's smooth, slightly green and beautiful. Underneath there is something oily that I often associate with marigolds and chrysanthemum's. This oil is extremely potent and concentrated. I dabbed some on my finger and swished it around the water of my aromatherapy difusser. The entire room was filled with white flowers within seconds. At first the scent of the oil is very realistic of white flowers but after a while, both on my skin and in the difusser it started to smell perfumy and aldehydic. After a while it dawned on me that it had morphed into a vintage perfume reminiscent of Houbigant 's Quelques Fleurs l`Original. After putting this oil on my arm I ended up having a reaction which included welts and sores. This was especially troubling because no where are the ingredients of this oil printed. Not on the box and not online. As an avid perfume oil wearer with thick skin, this was odd. I should have diluted it in a carrier oil prior to trying it on my skin but assumed it would be safe. Personally, when it comes to a non-indolic, realistic white floral that stays natural smelling and has not caused any skin irritation, I would recommend Kuumba Made's Pikake Lei over this. Still I'm happy to have finally found Song of India's Temple oil on here and given it a try. A definite must try for white floral lovers.

I would rate this higher if I could! I was concerned after reading some of the lukewarm reviews about the packaging, but mine was fine (rollerball was included and no leakage). I was also concerned because I have the message oil, which smells great but doesn’t last, but this perfume oil is just perfect and it lasts! It smells amazing - just like the incense - and I am more than pleased with the purchase. I get so many compliments when I wear it and it has become my signature scent. Definitely worth it! Will be buying again!

This stuff smells divine! It smells better than the Nag Champa incense brand that so many places carry nowadays. The smell is strong but not too overpowering that it gives me a headache. I got a compliment that I smelled good and now the scent lingers in my car as well so it's nice to step in my car. For those who wonder about the roller ball, it is in fact included. You have to lift the container box because it's underneath. As you can see in the photo I provided, I pulled out the box inside and at the bottom there is a little slot where the roller ball is housed. You just have to take it out and put it on yourself. The seller even provided information about it with a review printed on green paper that someone posted about the roller being located in the red box container. So yes this is unfair to the seller that people didn't look hard enough to find it. Overall, I love this stuff and smells so good!

Bought this originally at a local store and fell in the with the product and the smell, came as a roll on product with the appropriate application but when I bought it on Amazon most recently (same brand as the first time) it didn’t come with a roll on application like what is shown in the Amazon listing and like the packing it comes in describes. Not the biggest deal but I do expect to get what I’m being told I’ll get and what is advertised and described.

When I first opened the bottle I was worried because the scent is overwhelmingly floral. I don't mind some hint of flowers, but I don't like primarily floral fragrances. The good news is there are other layers that seem to become more obvious as your skin warms the oil. The scent became more herbal about five minutes after I put it on. In my opinion this oil is a combination of jasmine, amber and sandalwood. I do not detect any patchouli. It reminds me of Amarige by Givenchy, but with a stronger woodsy element. This is a lot less expensive than Amarige. Plus, it is really potent, so you only need a teeny tiny bit. This bottle is pretty tall, so it will probably last about 100 years. :)

This oil has a VERY strong smell. Very little needed and long lasting. It has a very unisex vibe to it. I prefer slightly more feminine scents but just a touch of this oil adds a hint of exotic mystery to whatever vibe I'm trying to catch that day.

I was truly disappointed. I have worn the authentic Temple of India Oil that is from India and sold in France. The version I received smelled like petroleum and some other kind of chemical. iT SMELLED NOTHING LIKE THE TEMPLE OF INDIA OIL I HAD. I ordered two bottles and both smelled completely off! If you don't know what the real Temple of India oil smells like you would be so disappointed. You might want to be careful where you buy this. This was Very disappointing. Sorry for the bad review but I was so shocked someone would sell this and waste my money!
