Special

At a glance

• Sandalwood, amber and oakmoss create a rich, sweet woody fragrance
• The deepest and most traditionally warm scent within this six-scent group
• 30-stick paulownia box suits regular use while keeping the incense neatly stored

Koto moves in the opposite direction to the fresh Bamboo and Ume fragrances.

Sandalwood, amber and oakmoss create a heavier, sweeter profile with both woody depth and a mossy base. Kousaido developed the scent around the image of Japan's ancient capital, giving the composition a more traditional amber character.

Choose it when you want incense with greater warmth and weight rather than bright florals or citrus freshness.
