Ka-fuh White Plum or Lavender Japanese Incense

Ka-Fuh White Plum is a delicate florally fragranced Japanese incense made by Nippon Kodo.

The Ka-Fuh range takes its name from the English translation of Ka-Fuh, which means, “the scent of blossoms in the wind.” The incense is made with natural ingredients by talented craftspeople and the incense sticks have a bamboo-free core, to enable the scent to be as pure as possible.

The White Plum incense captures the delicate floral scent of white plum blossom. The Japanese believe that white plum flowers are a symbol of renewal and revival, as they appear elegantly in the spring. 

Lavender is renowned for having calming properties, so it’s a good fragrance to have on in the background in the evening before you go to bed, or if you’re feeling stressed and in need of relaxation.

This is a beautifully fragranced incense and a great choice to burn in your home when you want to feel refreshed or create a welcoming atmosphere.

More About Japanese Incense

Japanese incense (speaking in general terms) is refined, pure, light smoke and rich in natural ingredients such as sandalwood. They don't usually have the thin wooden stick centre that is often found in Indian and other incense sticks. They are normally pure incense right the way through the stick. They are often designed with meditation in mind. Due to the high quality manufacturing processes the incense goes through they can be a little bit more expensive than other incense on the market.
