The Bakula tree
Hari-Leela draws its sublime aroma from the fragrant blossoms of the sacred Bakula tree (Mimusops elengi), native to the Indian subcontinent. Highly revered in Indian tradition, the Bakula is often planted in temple courtyards, its dense green canopy providing shade and serenity. When in bloom, it produces delicate, star-shaped flowers known as chirapushpa, or “perpetual flowers,” famed for their enduring fragrance—even long after drying.
These flowers are associated with devotion and divine beauty, often linked to the pastimes of Lord Krishna and mentioned in classical Sanskrit literature and poetry. It is said that the Bakula flower’s scent lingers through the night, gently perfuming the air with an aroma that soothes and uplifts the spirit. The tree itself symbolises longevity, strength, and a connection to the sacred.
A Fragrance with Devotional Depth
To burn Hari-Leela incense is to invite a tradition of spiritual elegance into your space. It is more than a scent—it is an experience rooted in purity, heritage, and devotion.
