Rewriting an Old Story
Founded in Melbourne, Australia, MAHŌ Sensory Sticks honour the ancient art and wisdom of burning to awaken the senses and transport the mind to an oasis of inner calm.
In memory of his Mother, MAHŌ creator Joshua Tong is spreading a little Magic by sharing the powerful transcendent qualities of scent and smoke. Invigorated by the fresh use of this refined home fragrance, MAHŌ Sensory Sticks are a simple and captivating addition to the timeless rituals that create a space of calm, meditation, and coming home.
Our sense of smell can transcend our minds into the depths of deep thought and serenity. Joshua’s passion to bring this into your home and elevate your sensory experience is so strong that MAHŌ Sensory was created. Each scent has been curated to evoke the minds of each one of us and take us to where it is that we find peace.
Inspired by family tradition

For MAHŌ, the classic incense needed a new modern ritual that could be suitable for all. A way to induce a calm and relaxed environment via sensory refinement. MAHŌ, the Japanese word for “Magic,” exists to provide a slight deluge into the spiritual world, to accompany the modern lifestyle.
