Unochiyo Tokusen Sakura Usuzumi incense is a cherry blossom inspired floral incense produced in Japan by Nippon Kodo.
The incense is made from base notes of woody sandalwood and top notes of fresh ripe cherry blossom, but has additional floral ingredients of rose, lily and jasmine. The result is a complex blended fragrance that intrigues the senses.
The incense is part of the Chiyo Uno Collection, inspired by the favourite flowers and scents of the Japanese writer and kimono designer, Chiyo Uno. Tokusen Sakura Usuzumi means, “excellent cherry blossom pale grey.” When cherry blossom begins to go past their peak colour, they fade into a pale grey and the Japanese believe this brings a sense of peace.
The Unochiyo Tokusen Sakura Usuzumi incense comes in lovely packaging which, not surprisingly, includes images of cherry blossom flowers.

More About Japanese Incense
Japanese incense (speaking in general terms) is refined, pure, light smoke and rich in natural ingredients such as sandalwood. They don't usually have the thin wooden stick centre that is often found in Indian and other incense sticks. They are normally pure incense right the way through the stick. They are often designed with meditation in mind. Due to the high quality manufacturing processes the incense goes through they can be a little bit more expensive than other incense on the market.
