Asayu Japanese Incense and Ceramic Holder Gift Set | 13 Scents Paired with Ceramic Incense Holders

The Asayu Japanese Incense and Ceramic Holder Gift Set brings together Japanese-made incense, a ceramic holder, and a brass incense rest in one box, so fragrance and beautiful objects can become part of everyday life. The 13 fixed combinations span sandalwood, agarwood, floral, herbal, and tea scents, paired with Zen, lotus, or mini ceramic holders. They’re ideal for reading at home, tea gatherings, meditation, or as a gift for someone who enjoys Japanese fragrances.

A complete Japanese fragrance experience, from scent to accessories

The incense is made on Awaji Island in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan; the ceramic holders come from Gifu Prefecture, Japan; and the brass incense rest is also made in Japan. More than decorative pieces, the holders work with the brass rest to secure the incense and catch ash, giving your daily incense ritual a proper place.

If you’d like to set aside some time for reading or solitude amid a busy day, start by choosing a scent you enjoy, then select a holder that suits your home. For warm, woody notes, compare sandalwood or agarwood; for floral scents, explore cherry blossom, jasmine, and rose. If you’d like to alternate between fragrances, choose a two-scent gift set with 20g of each.

What’s included in each of the 13 gift sets

Each set also includes one brass incense rest and one gift box. Each option is a fixed combination; scents and holders cannot be selected separately, and one set does not include all 13 combinations.

All gift sets contain a total of 40g of incense: single-scent sets contain 40g of one fragrance, while two-scent sets contain 20g of each. The two scents are separate incense sticks that can be used individually, not two fragrances blended into one stick.

Three ceramic holder styles: how to choose

The holders are made of ceramic and paired with a brass incense rest; some original styles are specifically described as Mino ceramic or Mino ware. Glaze color and texture may vary slightly due to the firing process and glaze flow, giving each piece its own character. The specifications above apply to the holders, not the shipping dimensions or total weight of the gift set. Actual color and design depend on the style selected.

Incense specifications and smoke levels

• Total incense weight: 40g per box, approximately 70–80 sticks; the actual count may vary slightly depending on stick thickness.
• Incense length: approximately 13.5 cm; thickness: approximately 2.5 mm.
• Most varieties burn for approximately 25 minutes per stick; the original product details list approximately 25–30 minutes for the Patchouli and Sandalwood & White Sage gift sets.
• Incense packaging dimensions: approximately 14.8 × 6.2 × 2.7 cm (L × W × H); these are not the dimensions of the outer gift box.

The collection includes both traditional and low-smoke incense; the formulas should not all be considered the same. The original product pages describe Patchouli and Sandalwood & White Sage as traditional varieties. The Hinoki & Cedarwood gift set is titled traditional incense, although its detailed description also mentions a low-smoke design. Check the product packaging to confirm its smoke classification. Low-smoke does not mean smokeless; all burning incense should be used in a well-ventilated area.

Ingredients and formulas vary by incense variety. Please check the packaging for the selected gift set. The original Patchouli product details specify that no dyes, preservatives, or artificial fragrances are added; this statement should not be taken as a shared guarantee for all varieties.

Choosing a set for yourself or as a gift

Whether you’re looking to get incense and its accessories in one set, or choosing a Japanese fragrance gift for a housewarming, holiday, or everyday occasion, this collection offers a range of scents and holder designs. The contents of each set are listed, so when choosing, consider the recipient’s fragrance preferences, the space available for the holder, and their usage habits—not just the holder’s color.

How to use and safety information

1. Place the ceramic holder and brass incense rest on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials.
2. Light one end of the incense stick. Once the tip catches, gently blow out the flame.
3. Secure the stick in the brass incense rest and place it in the ceramic holder, making sure ash will fall within the holder.
4. Keep the area ventilated. After use, make sure the tip and any embers are completely extinguished before cleaning or leaving the area.

Never leave burning incense unattended or use it while sleeping. Keep it away from children, pets, and flammable materials, and avoid directly inhaling the smoke. If you are sensitive to fragrances or smoke and experience discomfort, stop using the incense and ventilate the area. Incense sticks break easily, so avoid squeezing them when handling. Handle ceramic accessories carefully and wait for them to cool before touching them.
