Fragrance creates mood. It can be relaxing and soothing to the psyche or provide clarity and energy. Opening oneself completely to the fragrance is called "listening to incense" in Japan. For centuries, people have used the natural aromas of nature to soothe, to create atmosphere and to enliven space.

Sit back, heels up and relax with this traditional yet modern all-natural scent from Shoyeido.

About Shoyeido: Family owned for over 300 years, Shoyeido's master artisans practise traditional hand-made methods to blend anywhere from 20 to 50 herbs and spices together with pure water to create just one fragrance. Each stick delivers the pure essence of its ingredients without waste or interference of a 'support core'.

TrueRenu recommends Shoyeido to anyone who desires a pure, natural fragrance in his or her environment, especially if you don't like incense. If in the past you found incense to be too strong or overpowering, it was likely due to inferior ingredients, wrong ratios, or incorrect heating during manufacturing. Try Shoyeido and see how high quality incense can improve your environment and your sense of well being.
