The history of Hana no Hana
Hana no Hana was created in 1911 by Yujiro Kito, a gifted incense master who fused traditional manufacturing techniques with Western perfume culture. Japan had been isolated for 300 years when it was reopened to trade. The floral essences that began to arrive from the West fascinated Yujiro Kito and inspired him to create Hana no Hana. More than 100 years after its creation, Nippon Kodo continues to make this exceptional incense that still fascinates the Japanese.

Hana no Hana renewed
Now Hana-no-Hana has gone through a transformation while retaining its essence. The package has been newly designed, fusing the Art Nouveau style with Japanese culture: outlines of flowers gives a historical and authentic impression.

To make Excellent Hana-no-Hana, high quality Indian white sandalwood is used, so that the fragrance is more intense and lasts longer. The box is inspired by masterpieces of Shinsui Ito, a famous Japanese painter.
