At a Glance: Sandalwood - Aloeswood hints - Gentle spice & resin - Refined aroma

Length: 13.5cm Burn Time: ~30 minutes

 

Main Notes / Character: Kokonoe Koh has a balanced sandalwood emphasis with supportive aromatic woods and subtle spice/resinous undertones. It’s calm, mellow, and woody with a richness that makes it versatile for daily use, meditation, or gentle fragrance in a space. Compared to the other incense in the Jinkoya line its quite soft, leaning into refined sandalwood notes rather than agarwood. 

History / Lineage: Part of Baieido’s Jinkoya Sakubei series. A tribute line created in honour of the company’s founder Jinkoya Sakubei, who began trading incense materials in Sakai in 1657 and whose original recipes inspire these blends. The Tribute Line was introduced to commemorate Baieido’s long heritage and uses historic formulas interpreted by the master blenders. 

Meaning behind the Name: “Kokonoe” (九重) refers to layers associated with the imperial palace/inner chambers, suggesting elegance and depth, fitting for an incense that is both historical in origin and layered in its aromatic presence.

Kokonoe Koh – Imperial Palace is absolutely beautiful. The fragrance is elegant, refined and sophisticated, with a wonderful depth to it without being overpowering.

You can really notice the quality from the moment it begins to burn. It creates such a peaceful, luxurious atmosphere and has a very traditional and special feel to it.

This is definitely not your everyday incense — it feels like something to slow down and truly enjoy. Beautiful quality and a fragrance I will happily purchase again.
