Kunkodo has been creating scents for ceremonial occasions and daily life since its founding in 1594 in front of Nishi Honganji Temple in Kyoto. The incense blending books (recipes) passed down through generations at Kunkodo list aged agarwood and plants used in traditional Chinese medicine as raw materials for incense.

It is said that plants grown with the blessings of the earth hold the power to gently heal and invigorate people. While cherishing our commitment to incense blending, we are a brand that proposes forms of fragrance that align with modern life.
