HUUKYOU Gradient Incense - Kawataredoki 20 short sticks
When the world lies between night and dawn.
In the fleeting moments before sunrise, when faces are still hidden by soft shadows, a faint glimmer of light begins to rise from below. The HUUKYOU Gradient Incense - Kawataredoki captures this delicate hour, translating it into scent and color. The stick’s gentle gradient - shifting from soft yellow to blue above - reflects the dawn sky: the lingering night overhead and the sun’s golden light quietly emerging on the horizon.
The fragrance opens with fresh marine and ozonic tones, echoing the crisp purity of early morning air. A medley of eucalyptus, lavender, marjoram, and aromatic herbs lends clarity and quiet strength - like the first breath of dawn. Ylang-ylang and jasmine add an exotic undercurrent, inviting you into a dreamlike serenity that bridges this world and the next.
As it burns, Kawataredoki reminds you that time is never still. Each wisp of smoke mirrors the sky’s slow transformation, offering calm and peace in the moments between darkness and light.
