Forget everything you think you know about incense. This is Japanese fragrance at its most delicate.
Soft, floral and gently sweet, Plum Tree captures the delicate character of Japanese plum blossom. Not the rich, fruity sweetness of ripe plums, but something far more subtle: an airy floral scent with a clean, almost powdery softness. Elegant without being perfumed, comforting without feeling heavy.
Created by KOHCHOSAI KOSUGA, a Japanese bamboo house established in 1898, this incense is part of the Chikuseikō collection. Made using bamboo charcoal and plant-derived fragrance ingredients, it produces remarkably little smoke, allowing the scent to unfold gently rather than filling the room with that familiar, heavy incense smell.
There's a beautiful Japanese tradition called Kōdō, the art of appreciating incense, often described as 'listening to fragrance'. Rather than simply scenting a space, it's about paying attention to the smallest nuances. Plum Tree captures something of that philosophy. Light a stick, let the fragrance settle and enjoy a moment that asks nothing of you.
Each box contains approximately 225 slender black incense sticks (80g), measuring 13.3 cm each.

Place one incense stick in a suitable incense holder on a heat-resistant surface. Light the tip, let it burn for a few seconds, then gently blow out the flame. Allow the incense to smoulder and release its delicate fragrance. Use in a well-ventilated space, away from flammable materials, and never leave burning incense unattended.
