Japanese Incense Box
Slow-burning incense, handcrafted by local artisans, heirs to centuries of know-how in the art of incense. Treat yourself to a regenerating break with the restorative scents of , Meli Melo ( Sandalwood + Conifer + Cinnamon), Shiso and Amber. An ancient ritual, practiced since the 6th century in Japan, to purify your space and reconnect with your inner essence.
Crafted by local artisans with over two hundred years of incense-making experience, each stick is made from the dried and pulverized bark of the Japanese Machilus thunbergii tree. Fragrant medicinal plants and essences are added, creating a thick paste that is then pressed into individual sticks.
Shiso (39 sticks) : To clear the mind. Japanese Shiso has a fresh, crisp scent, reminiscent of a mint field on a dewy morning. Light this incense when you want to purify your mind and reset.
Amber (39 sticks) : To purify the mind. Sensual and warm, amber is sometimes considered, in some cultures, the nectar of the gods—reputed to heal, balance, seduce, and protect against harmful energies.
Medley (39 sticks) : Medley combines the three iconic scents of sandalwood, conifer, and cinnamon in one box. Follow your mood and choose accordingly.
Sandalwood: Soothing and woody, ideal for calming anxiety and promoting mental clarity, perfect for a moment of calm after a busy day.
Conifer: Earthy and fresh, with notes of wood and citrus, it is ideal for yoga, meditation or moments of solitude for deep grounding.
Cinnamon: Energizing and spicy, it stimulates creativity, concentration and brings new energy, perfect for changes of season or project.
Hold one end of the incense and light it away from your body. Insert the unburned end into an incense holder, allowing its aroma to purify and fill your space. Enjoy it during your daily self-care rituals to enter a state of calm and serenity.

"Damdam is a real favorite that took me two years of patience before I could finally introduce it to you.
I love these treatments which are inspired by ancestral rituals, revisited with modern science and a contemporary vision.
From the first application, you instantly feel the finesse, precision, and high standards inherent in Japanese expertise. Once you've tried it, it's hard to live without it...
My favorite treatment? Motchi Motchi Radiance Cream, which gives skin that soft, plump, and luminous glow, just like Japanese mochi.
