Nippon Kodo's Oedo-Koh Collection is inspired by the Edo period of Japanese history which lasted from the 1600's to the 1800's. This era is famous for 'Iki' an urban culture of 'dandyism' that emerged to celebrate a minimalist approach to life that embraced thoughtfulness. This luxe incense was created by master incense artisans from modern Tokyo, using fragrance to represent a range of Edo-inspired scenes. The set contains a bespoke incense holder and 60 perfume sticks that burn for up to 12 minutes each.
In China, since ancient times, chrysanthemums were believed to be enshrined by a “spirit”. The flower is also considered sacred in Japan, as well as being a symbol of “longevity” because of its long life-span in bloom. This incense is an aromatic rendering of chrysanthemum flowers. The floral scent of chrysanthemums will soothe your spirit and clear your thoughts. Made in Tokyo, Japan.
Nippon Kodo is officially distributed in Australia and New Zealand by Saison.
About Nippon Kodo
Nippon Kodo... producer of the world's finest incense, each uniquely fragranced to the highest Japanese standards. The scents derive from tying together closely guarded preparation skills that are more than 400 years old with the sensitivities of modern perfumers.
Nippon Kodo's knowledge and skills were inherited through writings on the mixture of aromatic woods by Takai Juemon, an incense preparer who supplied the Emperor of Japan in the Tensho era (late 16th century). Perfumers with Japan’s best noses and instincts interpret and evolve that tradition to create exquisite fragrances for you to enjoy.
