Kikohroku Series Sengoku Samurai Incense – 20 Sticks

Kikohroku Series Sengoku Samurai Incense

Kikohroku Series is an original incense collection that expresses historical figures through scent, much like an unrolling scroll that carries stories far into the distance.

Each fragrance is inspired by the lives, personalities, and legacies of individuals who shaped Japanese history. Their stories are carried in incense smoke, connecting profound narratives of the past to the present day.

Throughout Japan’s history, many figures have influenced the course of their times. Warlords of the Sengoku period, as well as the people who supported them, continue to captivate hearts even today.

Kikohroku translates these historical figures into fragrance. Each scent is carefully blended to reflect the person’s character and way of life, while the packaging features the family crest and signature colors associated with them, allowing history to be experienced through both scent and design.

Carry these enduring stories into the present, and take a quiet moment to step into a page of history through fragrance.

A complete set containing all fragrances in the series is also available. The incense holder and plate shown in photos are not included.
