hibi's 10 Minute Aroma Japanese Cypress has the fragrance of trees enveloping your mind with a nostalgic serenity. This pack counts 8 sticks of incense that can be lit like striking a match, without the need for a lighter. The small box easily fits into your palm or pocket and comes with a non-flammable mat. Perfect for traveling, it will make any hotel room or living space smell like home. We recommend using the provided anti-flammable mat, even if you pair it with a ceramic plate like we do.

hibi's 10 minute Aroma Japanese Cypress is part of their Japanese fragrances, together with Sandalwood and Yuzu. These three aroma's form a collection of scents that celebrates Japanese traditional incense. They are not necessarily scents that are entirely native to Japan. However, they represent ingredients commonly used and loved in Japanese traditional incense.

At Misc Store we also carry the large box, counting 30 matchsticks.

hibi means ‘day to day’, or daily, in Japanese. It was given with the hope that you will keep hibi incense around you every day and freely enjoy its fragrance, matching each day’s mood or occasion. The logo’s design combines two of the Chinese character ‘日’ (day) set next to each other.

hibi x Misc Store Amsterdam

hibi's story starts with two traditional industries in the Hyogo Prefecture of Japan; matches and incense — the incense of Awaji Island and the matches of Harima.
These two traditional industries first encountered each other in 2011. The collaboration started with the idea of an incense that could be lit like striking a match, and was followed by 3 years of trial and error. As Japanese incense is generally very brittle, a clever solution had to be created. A precise recipe of incense and washi pulp was developed: an aromatic product with properties of strength and fragrance, which does not break even when struck like a match.

The names of products and packaging were developed to convey the sensibility of today’s Japan. All those things were ‘designs’ to create a new way of enjoying fragrance.
