Oedo-Koh - Peony Tree

This incense from Nippon Kodo’s Oedo-Koh series captures the lush, romantic scent of the peony—regal and full-bodied, with soft floral sweetness and a hint of powdery elegance. Known as the “queen of the flowers,” the peony was adored in Edo-era Japan for its dramatic beauty and sensual presence.

Its enchanting blossoms were often compared to the graceful allure of geisha in the hanamachi, or geisha districts. These refined quarters—alive with music, dance, and whispered conversations—were places of fleeting beauty and rare privilege. It is said that the passage of time in tea houses was measured by sticks of incense, slowly burning as moments unfolded.

Lighting this incense evokes that dreamy, evanescent world. Let the fragrance transport you to the hidden heart of Edo, where elegance bloomed like a peony in full glory—striking, delicate, and unforgettable.
