Nippon Kodo Morning Star Cedar Incense Sticks 200

lovely aroma around the house

My go to incense sticks, they smell great. I find many incense brands a bit overpowering, particularly some of the Indian ones, but these are quite subtle. There's no wooden core, so less unwanted smoke.

Lovely scent and fast delivery.

Perfect for what i need them for.

My favourite from the range.

We only ever burn Morning Star incense sticks now - as they have no wooden shaft up the middle (ie are all made of compressed incense) there is much less smoke but plenty of smell and we find they don't irritate our eyes or lungs when burning. They are quite fragile, but you just have to be careful with them - and you can always burn the broken pieces anyway. We have them in different scents and all of them are lovely - we bought cedar as it's also supposed to deter moths - no idea if it works for that, but it does smell nice.

Less than half the size of normal sticks barely lasts 5 minutes! Would not recommend not much scent either!

My personal favourite Morning Star variety and a sacred experience. I have loved this one for over thirty years. It's among a select few types of incense I'd want on my desert island. My all time favourite can't be found. The only way to do so would be a travel to India and walk around Karnataka market stalls..
