Spread the Aroma!

India Post released its first ever fragrant stamp. I was happy on two counts. One, as a member of the philately club I was one of the first to receive this stamp. Two, the stamp bears the heavenly fragrance of sandal wood, the Royal Tree of Karnataka (declared so by the Wodeyars in 1792). Even the First Day Cover released bears its unmistakable scent.

3 Million stamps have been brought out. Those interested may rush to the nearest Post Office and grab one (costing Rs.15) for keepsake! Don't ask me to write you a snail-mail and affix this prized stamp of mine!
