Kyoto Incense - “Ink Fragrance” (Boku-ko) Paulownia Wood Box
The scent of sumi ink — clean, transparent, a little mineral. The smell of a brush being prepared, of a room before work begins.
Boku-ko is made for those who know calligraphy or sumi-e painting, and for those who simply want that clarity in a room. Sandalwood at the base with ryuno (camphor) and musk, the camphor lifts it, gives it that cool, clear quality that makes you want to sit still.
From Kousaido’s Koto no Kou series. Presented in a paulownia wood box - kiribako, the traditional Japanese storage vessel for things worth keeping.
