Special

At a glance

• Inspired by freshly prepared sumi calligraphy ink rather than a flower or conventional perfume
• Sandalwood, musk and borneol create a clear, dry and softly musky fragrance
• One of the most distinctive scent concepts in Kousaido's Koto no Kou collection

Sumi is unusual because its starting point is calligraphy ink.

Kousaido combines sandalwood, musk and borneol to evoke the clear, distinctive impression associated with sumi ink. The wood gives it body, musk adds depth and borneol keeps the fragrance feeling cleaner and more transparent.

That makes Sumi a useful choice for someone who wants an incense scent that is neither overtly floral nor strongly sweet.
