Why Choose Kungyokudo Kitayama Rose Incense?

Crafted by Japan’s Oldest Incense Maker

Kungyokudo was established in 1594 in Kyoto, originally serving temples and nobility. With over 400 years of expertise, the brand continues to uphold time-honored traditions of incense blending and production. Each stick of Kitayama Rose is not just a fragrance, but a bridge to Japanese cultural heritage.

Delicate Kitayama Rose Scent

The aroma is subtle yet sophisticated. Inspired by the roses that bloom in the northern Kitayama district of Kyoto, the scent is soft, floral, and ever so slightly sweet. It’s not overpowering. Instead, it fills your space gently, evoking peaceful morning gardens and the quiet grace of a Japanese tea house.

Ideal for Mindfulness and Daily Use

Whether you're practicing mindfulness, journaling, meditating, or simply unwinding after a long day, these incense sticks offer a gentle backdrop. The Kitayama Rose fragrance helps create a space of stillness and focus, helping your mind slow down and your breath deepen.

What Makes Kitayama Rose Incense Stand Out?

Natural Ingredients, No Artificial Additives

Every stick is composed of natural plant-based ingredients, including traditional herbs and floral extracts. No synthetic fragrances, dyes, or chemicals are added—just authentic botanicals combined with Japanese incense wood powder for a clean, pure burn.

Elegant, Minimalist Packaging

The incense is beautifully presented in a sleek, modern box that echoes the aesthetic values of Japanese simplicity and refinement. The compact case makes it perfect for home display, personal use, or thoughtful gifting.

Clean, Low-Smoke Burn

Unlike mass-market incense, Kungyokudo’s incense sticks produce minimal smoke, allowing the scent to breathe without overpowering the room. This makes it suitable for small spaces or shared environments like offices or yoga studios.

Key Features of the Kungyokudo Kitayama Rose Incense

60 High-Quality Sticks Per Box

Each box includes 60 uniform incense sticks, offering excellent value and long-lasting use. Burn one a day, and you’ll enjoy two months of daily fragrance from a single box.

Approximately 20–25 Minutes Burn Time Per Stick

Each stick burns for around 20 to 25 minutes, providing just the right amount of time for a morning meditation, evening wind-down, or focused work session. The fragrance lingers subtly in the air even after the stick has fully burned.

Traditional Handcrafted Production in Kyoto

The incense is hand-rolled and cut by artisans in Kyoto, following classical Japanese methods passed down over generations. This commitment to quality is evident in both fragrance and performance.

How to Use the Kungyokudo Kitayama Rose Incense

Prepare a Fireproof Incense Holder

Use a ceramic, stone, or heat-resistant holder to catch falling ash and ensure safe burning. The sticks are slender and straight, making them compatible with most standard Japanese incense holders.

Light the Tip and Gently Blow Out the Flame

Using a lighter or match, ignite the tip of the incense stick. After a few seconds, gently blow out the flame. The stick should continue to smolder, releasing its delicate scent.

Place in a Quiet Space for Relaxation

Set the stick upright in the holder and place it in a clean, calm space—your reading nook, bathroom, meditation corner, or even your bedroom. Let the fragrance carry you into a tranquil headspace.
