Review: Daybreak is a very good quality incense for the price. The aroma is refined and natural, as many Japanese incense are and it emits a very low smoke. The unburnt incense has a distinct honeysuckle aroma that is sweetly floral without being cloying. The smell of the burning incense is distinctly different, grassy and woodsy like a mild campfire. A hint of perfuminess comes through when this incense burns, which is the only indicator that this is not an expensive choice. However I would recommend this incense to those desiring a mellow and refined aroma.
