The sweet and bittersweet scent of lemon and something reminiscent of a green meadow embodies freshness itself. For moments when you need something invigorating and refreshing.
Born from the idea of incense sticks that can be lit like a match, these 10-minute aromas are perfect when you need a moment to yourself to relax and regenerate. This compact pack of eight matches includes a non-flammable mat that allows you to enjoy the incense almost anywhere without any hassle. Since Japanese incense is usually very brittle, a clever solution had to be found for these incense sticks, which should be able to be lit like a match without a lighter. Thus, a precise formulation of incense and washi pulp was developed: an aromatic product with solid and fragrant properties that does not break when lit like a match. The name Hibi, which means "day by day" or "daily" in Japanese, was given in the hope that one would have Hibi incense sticks around every day and can freely enjoy their scent, depending on the mood of the day or occasion.

Only use with caution. Do not discard the enclosed protective flame-resistant mat.

How to use

Pull the perforated part of the foil sideways to the left and right to open the packaging. Press the tip of a Hibi stick at a 45-degree angle against the brown, rough surface on the side of the box (the side for lighting) and swipe downwards to ignite it. Hold the match in the middle, as it may break otherwise. Once the match is lit, hold it slightly tilted downwards until the flame spreads to the incense stick and the flame goes out by itself. If you extinguish the flame prematurely before it settles, the fire may not spread to the incense stick. The smell of the match may also affect the initial scent of the incense stick, as the ignition material in the match head may not be completely burned off. (After a while, the scent of the incense stick will normalize.) Place the Hibi stick on the included base and enjoy the fragrance for about 10 minutes. Since the base and the tray are heat-resistant, the stick can be placed almost anywhere. If there are concerns, the stick can be safely placed on the sliding lid of the box. Do not leave the area until the stick has burned out. Do not burn more than one stick at a time on the base. After using the stick, lift the base along with the stick and dispose of the ash that has formed. Using another Hibi stick on the mat with the remaining ash can lead to a mixing of scents, which may distort the actual fragrance of the Hibi stick.

Be cautious of fire. The stick should only be placed on the fireproof base once it is ensured that the flame has already gone out and the fire has spread to the incense part. The stick is not edible and should be kept away from small children. Do not store in hot or humid places.

Fragrances that enrich the day - the incense of Awaji Island and the matches from Harima: These two traditional industries of Hyogo Prefecture first came together in 2011. The collaboration between the incense company Daihatsu and the match manufacturer Kobe Match Corporation began with the idea of an incense that can be lit like a match, hoping to save two stagnating industries. What followed was three and a half years of trial and error. The result: a perfectly balanced mixture of Japanese paper, incense, and temperature that makes the stick more flammable and resilient. In the Harima region of Awaji, incense has been produced for almost one hundred and fifty years. The westerly winds blowing over Awaji Island provide the perfect temperature for drying the incense, and each of the fragrances comes from herbs grown by a local incense manufacturer using traditional methods. The technique of match production was introduced to Japan from Europe at the beginning of the Meiji era (1868-1912). In Himeji, the grandfather of Masashi Sagayama (co-founder of hibi) founded the Kobe Match Corporation in 1929, a company that has now existed for three generations. Unfortunately, the act of lighting matches, which used to be part of everyday life, has gradually disappeared with the introduction of inexpensive lighters, leading to the idea for a new type of match. ""Matches do not have to play the leading role. "However, we want to pass on the roots and tradition of our matches." With this thought in mind, hibi has strived to enrich people's lives through collaboration with Japanese craftsmanship and culture. The name hibi was chosen with the hope that it can be carried every day and its fragrance enjoyed freely, fitting the mood of the day or the occasion. The logo is a combination of two adjacent Chinese characters "日" (day). Hibi hopes to become synonymous with simple and cool incense both in Japan and abroad, and to instill a sense of pride and dreams in those working in the traditional industry - a connection between Japan and the world through the spirit of enjoying fragrances. That is the hope and goal of hibi.
