A soft, milky serenity.

Named after the snowy, serene regions of Japan, Shirakawa is a breath of fresh air for your home. It is a "kind" scent—designed to be gentle and soothing, making it a wonderful choice for those who prefer a light, airy atmosphere.

The Experience: Shirakawa is defined by its "clarity". It produces a delicate, thin smoke that settles into the background with ease. It is particularly lovely for use during a relaxing bath, a quiet morning stretch, or as a subtle "palate cleanser" for your home’s air.

The Scent: A beautifully smooth blend focused on the natural sweetness of sandalwood. While it begins with a soft, creamy warmth, it is famous for its exceptionally "clean" after-scent—refreshing the room without leaving behind any heavy or smoky residue.

Composition:

  • Pure Botanical: Part of the Meiko Horin series, hand-blended in Kyoto using high-quality natural resins and woods.
  • Coreless Purity: Created without a bamboo core or charcoal. This ensures the fragrance remains pure and the smoke output is kept to a minimum, respecting your home’s air quality.
  • Thoughtful Packaging: Presented in a convenient slide-open paper box designed to dispense one stick at a time.

Details:

  • Includes: 20 sticks + 1 minimalist ceramic holder.
  • Burn Time: Approx. 20 minutes.
