THE ROOT 595 HUMIDITY Incense
Description
Humidity is a stick incense that captures the feeling of moisture in the air. Burned incense rarely smells watery, so √595 tested a range of materials and kept those that read as clear and fresh.
The scent is clean and lush, built on violet, lavender tea tree, and elemi. It is meant to bring stillness to a room.
The idea comes from Japan's warm, humid climate and the way damp air settles on the skin. Kunjudo, an Awaji incense maker founded in 1893, produces it for √595. Each box holds
40 sticks. Each stick burns for about 15 minutes.

About IZUMI KAN (和泉侃) / THE ROOT 595
√595 (Root 595) is an incense brand from Awaji Island, Japan. The name refers to the year 595, when the Nihon Shoki records agarwood drifting ashore on Awaji. It is the oldest written record of incense in Japan. Awaji began producing incense in the late Edo period and today makes more of it than any other region in Japan.
√595 draws on that history to explore the roots of scent. Its research follows three paths: traditional recipes and methods, new plant materials, and the effect of scent on the body and on space.
The brand is directed by artist Kan Izumi of IK STUDIO and produced by Kunjudo, an Awaji incense maker founded in 1893. Working with artists, designers, and specialists, √595 combines traditional incense-making with new blends. Each product is the result of an experiment, made to bring scent into daily life as a ritual.
