Prasad Perfumery

Prasad Perfumery is located on Kbsd Road, right near the Padma Medical Store. You can usually smell the shop before you actually see it, which is probably a good thing given the kind of work we do here. We have got all sorts of scents, agarbattis, and oils packed onto the wooden shelves. It is a small shop and things are stacked pretty high up toward the ceiling. We have been here for years, and the neighborhood has grown up quite a bit around us. Most of our customers are people we have known for a very long time. They come in for their regular stuff or just to see if we have mixed anything new lately. It is not a fancy boutique with glass cases and velvet rugs. It is more of a practical place where you buy what you need for your home or for your daily prayers. The floors are a bit worn down and the counters have seen better days, but the products are what people come for. We spend a lot of our time weighing out powders and packaging sticks into bundles. It is a messy job sometimes, and we usually go home smelling like a mix of jasmine and sandalwood. Kbsd Road is always busy, so there is a lot of noise from the street, but inside it is a bit calmer. We just keep doing what we do every day. It feels like a family-run place most of the time.
