Nippon Kodo Oedo-Koh Incense

The culture of Edo (the old name of Tokyo) was a playful and stylish one, born out of a marriage of the elegant and the common, the coarse and the refined. People enjoyed the four seasons, treasured their friends and neighbors, and loved lives brimming with vitality. This series was created by master incense artisans in Tokyo to express the fragrant atmosphere of old Edo.
