Daihatsu Incense, Premium Tanka Perfume

Premium Tanka Perfume‑Style Incense

Overview

Premium Tanka is a refined, high‑grade incense in which sandalwood and fine perfume materials are brought together in a carefully balanced composition.

Mysore Sandalwood Base

This incense is crafted using high‑quality Mysore sandalwood from India. Sandalwood has long been regarded in India as a noble aromatic wood, and among its varieties, material from the Mysore region has traditionally been considered especially esteemed, forming a rich and stable base for the fragrance.

Perfume Materials Selected for Incense

Alongside the sandalwood, selected perfume materials commonly used in fine perfumery are employed. These materials were carefully chosen by a French perfume manufacturer specifically for use in incense, contributing depth and elegance to the overall scent character.

Fragrance Impression

When lit, Premium Tanka releases a sweet yet expansive perfume impression supported by the warmth of sandalwood. Compared with more contemporary incense styles such as Kafuh, Shikobai, or Hanakaori, its aroma is fuller and more substantial, expressing a classic, richly layered presence. Its character is particularly well suited to use in more spacious settings, where the sense of refinement can be appreciated.

Historical Background

Rooted in the lineage of perfume‑style incense first developed in the Meiji era, Premium Tanka is a creation of Daihatsu, a manufacturer that has long continued this tradition. The Tanka series was conceived as a high‑grade offering positioned within the same aromatic tradition as Wakaba, one of Daihatsu’s well‑known works, and soon became recognized as a distinguished presence in its own right.

After‑Scent

With its sweet and graceful fragrance, the lingering scent left on clothing is also pleasant.
