Kameyama Murasaki Shikibu Cherry Blossom Incense

There are very few things more Japanese than the Kameyama Murasaki Shikibu Cherry Blossom Incense. You just need to unpack them to see why: this special box of incense is inspired by the recent period drama from national broadcaster NHK called Dear Radiance. The lead character of the series is Murasaki Shikibu, the woman who wrote Japan's most-classic-of-all-classic novels, The Tale of Genji. And the fragrance of the incense is cherry blossom, that most Japanese of all scents.

A superb gift item, the Kameyama Murasaki Shikibu Cherry Blossom Incense is also a top-class incense that comes from a manufacturer that has been making incense and candles for almost a century. Each stick is about 93 mm (5.3") long, has a burning time of about 30 minutes, and emits minimal smoke – just like the incense sticks used for fragrance appreciation in the Kyoto imperial court back in the time of Murasaki Shikibu herself!
