Description
At a Glance: Sandalwood - Jasmine & floral notes - Light sweetness - Warmth
History / Lineage: Named after the historic Nijo district of Kyoto, an area long associated with imperial life, gardens, and traditional craftsmanship. Nijo reflects a balance between formality and beauty.
Main Notes / Character: Nijo opens with warm sandalwood, softened by gentle florals that give it a light, graceful feel. The blossoms sit naturally within the wood rather than on top of it, with faint spice and smooth resins adding depth in the background. It’s an elegant, comforting incense, warm, calm, and quietly floral.
Meaning behind the Name: “Nijo” (二条) means “Second Avenue” or “Two Streets,” reflecting Kyoto’s ordered beauty and layered cultural history.
