10A Grade Xue Zhong Chun Xin (雪中春信) Handcrafted Incense — Clove, Agarwood & Sandalwood

Xue Zhong Chun Xin, meaning “Spring Tidings in the Snow,” is one of the three most celebrated formulas in classical Chinese incense culture — a tradition cherished by scholars and connoisseurs for centuries. This batch was handcrafted using traditional methods and naturally aged for over 6 years, achieving a complexity and refinement that sets it apart from anything commercially produced. Graded 10A — the absolute pinnacle of incense classification.

Ingredients:
Clove Bark (丁香皮): The defining signature — cool, spiced, and quietly intoxicating
Nha Trang Agarwood (芽庄沉香): Premium Vietnamese oud — warm, deep, and meditative
Indian Old Mountain Sandalwood (印度老山檀香): Creamy and grounding — the perfect classical base
Additional classical botanicals in traditional proportion

Fragrance Journey:
Opening: Threads of agarwood and sandalwood gently introduce the first breath of clove — cool, subtle, and quietly mysterious
Heart: A honeyed sourness blooms — tart and sweet intertwined, complex and deeply captivating
Finish: From the honey, a rich floral sweetness emerges and lingers — full, warm, and beautifully enduring
