Incense Coil Kikka Senko Aroma

A pack of 30 aromatic, mosquito repellent incense coils made in Kyoto.

£28 per item

Alongside yukata kimono, handheld fans, and kakigōri (shaved ice), coil-shaped mosquito repellent incense called katori senkō are an iconic part of Japanese summers.
This katori senkō is made of organic materials, mainly chrysanthemum flowers, which contain a natural insecticide substance called pyrethrin. The spiral shape of katori senkō allows them to burn for a long-time giving protection throughout the night against troublesome mosquitos, while the Japanese peppermint and white birch powder also contained in the incense produce a gentle frangrance that permeates the room in which the coil is burned.

Each coil lasts approximately 6 hours in a still environment.
Use it a well-ventilated area.

Contains 30 coils and a metal stand.
Size: L12.5 cm x W12.5 cm x H7.5 cm
