Seasonal Features

Here is a little something we would like to suggest as a seasonal recommendation.
There are story-telling combinations of incense and trays/ holders/ burners.
We wish it would blend into your daily living and be a good companion of your “Life with Fragrance”.


With the dawn, a flower unfold
Telling us the arrival of summer

When the rainy season ends, summer’s arrival is imminent.
Summer in Japan is getting hotter year by year.
Around the time when the cicadas start chirping, there is a flower which starts blooming in ponds at temples.

The theme for this occasion is Lotus flower, which has been beloved by people since ancient times.



Emerging from the mud yet unstained,
Pure and beautiful, a flower blooming at down.

Lotus flowers bloom after the end of the rainy season to August.
They are revered for their appearance of blooming purely even in muddy water and holding water droplets like pearls on their leaves.
Symbolically, they are seen as a representation of enlightenment and as a flower which resonate with Buddhist teachings.

When we place the noses in a lotus flower, we are surrounded by a gentle, clear fragrance.
There are many temples which are famous for Lotus. People like to visit them to see and smell Lotus flowers.


In our “Genji series” inspired by “The Tale of Genji”, there is an incense named “Hachisu”.
The word “Hachisu” in “The Tale of Genji” originates from a poem read by Kaoru when he visited Ukifune’s place.
In this poem, “Hachisu” refers to the lotus flower. And the incense fragrance evokes imagery expanded from that poem.


The package has been revamped into simple and practical case.
Imagine journeying through the world of “The Tale of Genji”, Japan’s oldest romance novel, with the fragrance of Genji series.

On rainy days, and on summer mornings,
My heart leans towards the lotus.


With “Square Porcelain incense Tray Dark Blue” and “Incense holder Lotus”, It would be a view of beautiful lotus flower blooming in the pond.

Lotus flowers bloom in the dim light,
A gentle fragrance wafts from them.

The ‘Hachisu' incense always allows you to enjoy the serene elegance of the lotus in bloom.
