ZOUZ Natural Incense Cones
Brand · Home fragrance
Visual artist Mike Paré started exploring incense making in 2015 after finding it hard to get his hands on incense made with natural ingredients. He found that most commercially sold incense is made with artificial fragrance oils and burning accelerants. He researched Japanese incense making and that inspired him to try and make his own natural, hand-rolled incense. Mike has spent a lot time researching what materials burn well, where to source premium aromatics and how to put them all together. A student of aesthetics, herbalism and anthropology, he is constantly expanding his awareness of plants and the therapeutic properties they offer.
Melissa Paré is an artist, photographer, designer, and owner of Moraye, she lends her aesthetic eye to the brand.
