Great scent. in incense sticks and incense holders

This is amazing. Not strong or powerful at all. Very beautiful. I'm glad I have them and will buy more from this company. It costs a bit more, but I think it's worth it.

Superb sampler by Shoyeido

I really liked this sampler and I bought two of the incense sticks that it comes with. Really pretty packaging. It will also be a great gift. A bit pricey, but this is a quality incense stick. Would buy again.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Reliability

Intense, overly sweet, oil-based fragrance explosion

When I opened the packaging, I was struck by the sweet blend of caramel and fabric softener. Judging by the description, I was expecting something more classic, with an image of a tree. I'll update this review if my perception changes, but from the start I feel overwhelmed by the sweetness.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Only available in black

Fine incense collection

This premium incense collection offers fragrances for every taste. I liked 3 flavors; 2 were very good but not my favorite flavors. I found the three I liked to be woodier and the other two slightly sweet but still very enjoyable. Highly recommend for those looking for a "favorite" scent or just want to have a variety of quality incense sticks on hand.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Only available in white

Worth buying. The only way to find your favorites!

I like shorter and thicker double crochet. There are only 2 Khorin that I really love. Horikawa (river path) and Nijo (mansion road). I loved these two. Slightly complex, slightly sweet and they don't just smell like smoke. Very beautiful. I don't care about anything other than White River, but I never would have known if it wasn't for this sampler. I also like the high-quality packaging. It's just a pleasure to use. Shoyeido fan for life!

Powerful and Complex

After using this incense I feel like I've never tried incense before. I have to admit that I am a beginner and these scents are strong and very complex. I kind of feel like a 16-year-old sipping a good whiskey. The only "problem" I had was that the incense burner pictured in the bottom right hand corner was not on. Overall, I think these sticks will last a very long time, as they are absolutely not suitable for everyday use.

Pros
  • GOLS Certified
Cons
  • New Competitors

The best incense for East Asian atmosphere

I grew up with incense from India, which has a slightly different character. I've been traveling around Japan for a while and found inner peace here and there. These scents remind me of these places. The incense sticks themselves, unfortunately, do not burn for more than 20-30 minutes, but I think this time is quite enough. It's definitely not cheap, but you get what you pay for. These incense sticks are also used in some of Japan's really upscale resorts.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Expensive insurance

Simply divine! on Home Décor Products

I recently found Shoyeido Incense after reading some reviews from aromatherapy and incense experts about how great they are. Before I found them, I often bought sandalwood or aloe incense sticks that I found. I've tried almost every line from Shoyeido and the Horin collection is by far my favorite. This is a complex and well-crafted bouquet of woody notes and spices like I've never seen before. While Shoyeido is a little more expensive than regular incense sticks, it's worth it in terms of…

  • New to my collection

There are no inscriptions in English? No problem!

Samplers like this one are great if you want to test different scents for relatively little money. I highly recommend this if you are interested in getting better quality incense sticks to smell the air in your home. Ten Pyo (Peaceful Sky) has a very strong woody herbal scent that reminds me of peppers and burning green wood. Obviously, chiara is one of the most notable ingredients in this blend. I didn't like this scent at first, but over time it has become one of my favorites. However, I…
