The Edo Nishiki Iki incense sticks have an elegant, fresh and invigorating fragrance. They combine citrusy notes with warm, woody accents and are reminiscent of the clear air and lively flair of old Edo (modern-day Tokyo). They contain nuances of aloeswood (eaglewood), sandalwood and spicy herbs, combined with light floral and fruity elements. The fragrance is balanced, stimulating and yet calming - ideal for a refreshing atmosphere.
The design of the box is inspired by Edo prints, the samekomon pattern by “sharkskin”. Tough as armor, the sharkskin is also considered a protective talisman.
DID YOU KNOW? The end of the Edo period was a time of prosperity. One of the expressions of this era were the fabric prints, “Edo Komon”. Clothing in samurai society was basically very simple. However, as people wanted to look unique and different, they tried to express themselves through prints, colors and drawings on their fabrics. The often timeless design is still highly valued today.
