Osagawa Nisaburo Shoten Zukoh – Container Series (Refresh & Relax Fragrance)

Zukoh Series (Container Type) – Refresh & Relax Fragrance

Osagawa Nisaburo Shoten's Zukoh Series (Container Type) offers traditional incense powder presented in compact containers designed for convenient carrying and everyday use.

Zukoh is a traditional incense powder used in Buddhist practice and is often described as a purifying incense. It is typically blended with sandalwood as its central ingredient. Historically, similar aromatic powders were applied to the body in ancient India, and this practice later spread to Japan along with Buddhism.

This Refresh & Relax Fragrance line gathers scents known for their cleansing and calming associations — white sage, lavender, and yuzu — for a refreshing moment of relaxation.

Fragrance Variations

White Sage
A zukoh with a distinct, crisp white sage fragrance, well suited for purification.

Lavender
A zukoh with a softly elegant lavender fragrance that spreads gently.

Yuzu
A zukoh combining fresh yuzu fragrance with a sandalwood and herbal base.

Zukoh from this series may be applied lightly to the hands as part of customary preparation, or enjoyed whenever a refreshing fragrance is desired. The compact container design allows for minimal handling, supporting ease of use in daily life.
