Des coffrets de senteurs boisées, florales ou épicées, avec leur petit tapis, pour un rituel simple et bref au quotidien.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does HIBI incense work?

HIBI incense lights like a match by rubbing its end on the designated strip. It releases about ten minutes of fragrance, then extinguishes itself. A small fireproof mat is provided to place it on. It’s a short and simple ritual, with no incense holder or messy ash.

How long does a HIBI incense stick last?

Each stick releases about ten minutes of fragrance. This is the brand’s idea: a short, clear moment rather than a long burn. This duration is well suited to scenting a room before a quiet moment, reading, a break, or the end of the day.

Where does HIBI incense come from?

HIBI was born on Awaji Island, Japan, from the meeting of match manufacturers and incense masters. This collaboration created incense that lights like a match. The brand thus combines two traditional Japanese crafts in an everyday object.

Is HIBI incense safe to use?

Yes, provided you follow the usual instructions. Place the lit stick on the provided mat, on a stable and heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials, and do not leave it unattended. Once extinguished, the stick cools quickly and leaves almost no ash.

Are HIBI sets a good gift?

Yes, a HIBI scent box is a simple, refined, and original gift, easy to give. The incense-match gesture surprises and delights, and the discovery sets allow you to vary the fragrances. It is a scented attention suitable for many occasions.
