Yamadamatsu

Shikun Aloeswood Incense Sticks

Regular price $28.00
Description

Emphasizing the spicier notes of aloeswood, Shikun  (紫薫 - Purple Haze) is a unique and complex blend from Yamadamatsu, with the sharp aloeswood notes paired with a sweet and sour fruitiness. While the aloeswood content is clearly the star of the show, the masterful spice work adds layers of complexity to the scent profile.

This box contains approximately 38g (~100 sticks) of 14cm long sticks, which burn for about 25 minutes.

This Japanese item ships from the United States. 

Founded in 1772, Yamadamatsu Kōboku-ten (山田松香木店) is one of Japan's most respected incense houses. As their name suggests, they have long specialised in kōboku - the aromatic woods of sandalwood, aloeswood, and kyara which form the heart of Japanese incense culture. Their original recipes lean heavily on the exquisite quality of their raw ingredients and the ingenuity and creativity with which they combine them to form unforgettable aromas.
