HOT ! Palais de Tokyo Incense

Palais de Tokyo Incense by celebrated French ceramic house, Astier de Villatte. Overlooking the river Seine, like a mysterious starship navigating the mysterious turbulence of artists’ imaginations, it dominates the view. A haunting fragrance floats between the raw cement walls of its wide, maze-like passageways, where a crowd of zealous and enlightened visitors feverishly gathers: intoxicating wisps of smoky wood, warm skin and metallic vibrations.

Scent family - Woody

Damp wood, incense, freshly laundered linen, vetiver, and clove.

All natural fragrance incense.

Each box contains approx 125 sticks, each with a burn time of 30 minutes.

Incense sticks are handmade in Japan. Comes in a beautiful box each with a label handprinted in France.

• Thanks to its favourable climate, the best incense in the world comes from Awaji. Just off the coast of Kobe. The Koh-Shis, masters of scent, make incense in line with a thousand year old tradition that is handed down from father to son. They alone master the four production stages. First, the all-natural ingredients are prepared and mixed: exotic woods, plants and herbs, vegetable resin and perfume. Then the paste is kneaded, squeezed and shaped before being left to dry in the west wind for three days before being gathered into bundles.
