Deep fragrance of agarwood
The incense ceremony was performed by court nobles, feudal lords and other wealthy people. Although they rarely had access to them, the commoners were also fascinated by aromatic woods. The word kyara, which refers to aloeswood (agarwood), even became synonymous with “something wonderful”. Hair wax smelling of aloeswood was also very popular.Slowly savour this deep, rich incense to understand why aloeswood was considered the most luxurious of perfumes by the people of old Edo.
The fragrance of ancient Edo
This collection was created by master incense artisans in Japan to express the fragrant atmosphere of Edo, the former name of Tokyo, which was also called Oedo, the great Edo. It was a playful and stylish city, born out of a marriage of the elegant and the common and the course and the refined. People enjoyed the four seasons, treasured their friends and neighbours, and lived lives brimming with vitality.Oedo Koh, premium Japanese incense
This collection is an invitation to bask in the fragrant world of Edo: a single thin column of smoke beckons you to the stylish, modernist world that Edo represents. The fragrances have been specially blended to correlate with the folk tales that were told during the Edo Period (1603-1868).Nippon Kodo paid special attention to colours and textures: they chose traditional tones, and they made sure the packaging had a luxurious surface finish. The incense nestles in a paulownia box with a tin incense holder that resembles the stone pavements of Edo. Tin was a favoured metal by the upper class during the Edo period. It can be washed with water and will last for a long time. The outside of the box is adorned with a kamon, a Japanese emblem and the inside with Ukiyo-e paintings that express the aesthetic of this glorious period.
