Product Details
Herb & Earth Lemongrass Bamboo Incense Sticks from Nippon Kodo carry a crisp, sweet-sour lemongrass fragrance on a bamboo core. Twenty sticks to a pack, each burning for approximately twenty-five minutes, made without artificial dyes.
Sweet-sour is an unusually accurate description, and it is the reason lemongrass is worth having alongside a straight citrus rather than instead of one. Lemon is simply sharp. Lemongrass has a green, grassy sourness running underneath the citrus, which gives it somewhere to go beyond the first impression. Lemon announces itself and then has nothing further to say; lemongrass keeps unfolding across a burn.
That grassiness is also what makes it read as freshness rather than perfume. A room that has had lemongrass burning in it smells aired rather than scented, which is a different and often more useful effect. It is the fragrance to reach for when a space has gone stale rather than when you want it to smell of something in particular.
The low-smoke build keeps the bright edge sharp. Citrus notes dull faster than almost anything else under heavy smoke, losing exactly the quality that made them worth burning. Here the note stays clear the whole way through. Browse the line in our Nippon Kodo collection.
Against the Bergamot in the same range: bergamot is the more polished of the two, clean with a faintly bitter finish, while lemongrass is greener and more rustic. Neither is better; they suit different rooms and different moods, and having both is more useful than choosing between them.
No holder comes in the pack, so have a fire-safe dish ready before lighting, on a stable, non-flammable surface, and burn in a well-ventilated room. The full range sits in our Incense collection.
