Desi Kapoor

Desi Kapoor (local grade natural camphor) is a traditional, naturally-sourced camphor widely used in Indian households for daily worship, air purification, and simple home remedies. It represents the more accessible, everyday grade of natural camphor — less refined than premium Bhimseni varieties but retaining all the core benefits of natural camphor at an affordable price point.

Sourced from camphor trees and processed using traditional methods, Desi Kapoor offers a mild camphoraceous aroma suitable for routine household use, daily puja, and as a cost-effective natural air freshener and insect repellent.
