Notes & Highlights

Perfect for sampling or gifting, this elegant assortment lets you experience the complete Kyosenko low-smoke collection in thin sticks and travel-friendly portions.

The Kyoto Incense Set includes five variants:

1. The Scent of Natural Wood - 然樹香 (Nenju-kō)

This fragrance is designed to evoke the image of a dignified, standing tree. It is a refreshing, low-smoke incense created to suit a modern lifestyle. With a shorter burning time, you can enjoy its pure, direct aroma with peace of mind.

2. Constellation of the West - 西方の星座 (Seihō no seiza)

Bulgarian rose absolute provides a velvet heart of soft pink, while clean white musk dusts the edges like stardust. A fleeting note of cherry blossom drifts through, tying the floral core to the imagined night sky. This scent captures the gentle fragrance of blooming flowers in the twilight, resulting in a gorgeous yet gentle, low-smoke incense.

3. Scent of Eternity - 永遠の香 (Eien no kaori)

This fragrance is inspired by the boundless expanse of the ocean. It features a blend of marine notes to create a cool and refreshing, low-smoke incense. Its gentle scent is designed to be enjoyed directly and safely in any contemporary space.

4. Fragrance of the Heavens - 天空の香 (Tenkū no kaori)

This incense paints a picture of the clear, blue sky. Formulated with ylang-ylang and borneol, it offers a sublime and elegant aroma. As a low-smoke incense, it delivers a clear and direct fragrance that is ideal for modern living.

5. The Wind of the Buddha - 御仏の風 (Mibutsu no kaze)

Created to evoke the gentle wind and a feeling of benevolence, this incense is a nostalgic, low-smoke blend centered around the classic aroma of sandalwood. The scent is calming and perfectly suited for moments of quiet reflection.

About the Kyosenko Series:

The Kyōsenkō collection is a contemporary re-imagining of temple-grade fragrance. Each recipe layers sandalwood, aloeswood, lotus, borneol, and ambergris—precisely the aromatics once reserved for imperial and Buddhist rites—into slim, 15-minute micro-smoke sticks that suit modern altars, desks, and travel altars alike.

⚠️ Important Safety Note: Always burn incense in a well-ventilated area, keep it away from flammable materials, children, and pets, and never leave burning incense unattended. Ensure the burner is stable and on a protected surface, and allow the ash and burner to cool completely before handling.
