3 Stylish Incense Brands That Adults Are Suddenly Interested in for Under 3,000 Yen

Incense is intriguing ♡

To improve the home environment and comfort, choosing the right scent in your room is also important, isn't it?

Until now, I've been using room sprays and aroma fragrances, but recently I've become interested in incense.

When I visited an older colleague's new home and saw incense being burned, the Japanese scent felt so stylish and moody, it stimulated my five senses and gave a sense of relaxation.

Incense tends to evoke a strong image of the smell of my grandmother's house, but

that is also nice, and I might have grown up... I'm realizing that ♡

When I looked into it, I found many wonderful incense brands, so I'd like to introduce them.

They are also recommended for gifts ♡

① Kungyokudo

Founded in 1594 during the Azuchi-Momoyama period as a medicinal merchant, Kungyokudo is Japan's oldest incense shop with a history of over 400 years.

It is also a popular brand known by everyone who loves incense.

Although it is a long-established and traditional store, the stylish packaging is also a point of interest ♡

Since it's based in Kyoto, the names of the incense are also beautiful. Names like "Gion Maiko," "Daigo Sakura," "Kitano Kōbai," and "Miyama Renge" are derived from the local area.

They seem to be good for regulating autonomic nerves and hormonal balance with natural fragrances.

This paper box type costs 1,980 yen.

The incense burners and holders for standing incense are also stylishly designed, making them desirable as interior items ♡

② Officine Universelle Buly

Buly, popular for beauty items like skincare and haircare, also offers incense. Formally, they call it "fragrance matches."

The packaging looks sophisticated, as if it could be found in an antique café in the countryside ♡

Since they are matches, you can easily light them by simply rubbing the side of the box, without needing a lighter or matchstick.

I want to try using it to enjoy the fragrance in a dark room for a short time before going to sleep... ♡

It costs 2,600 yen.

③ Apotheke Fragrance

Apotheke Fragrance's incense is also well-known. It's a Japanese brand that handcrafts each piece.

The bamboo stick design is stylish, boasting high design quality that fits well with any home decor.

It costs 1,980 yen.

It's popular to use in combination with this brass incense holder.

I sometimes see decorations with fragrance diffusers at wedding receptions, but this type of incense would seem fitting for traditional venues like Gajoen, Happo-en, or Chinzanso.
