Shoyeido’s blending process is an art form, whereby highly trained “masters” draw upon centuries-old secrets to create modern works of fragrance. Working with the finest natural ingredients, these artisans must carefully process the quality, balance, and ratio of each component. The slightest variation in amount or quality of any ingredient can dramatically influence the resulting outcome. The results are remarkable, subtle scents that beckon us to use all of our senses – what the Japanese call mon-koh, or “listening to incense.”
We currently have Peace, Love, Joy, Peace, and Inspiration fragrances.
Additionally, we have a colourful collection of Brocade Cloth Sachets from Shoyeido for use anywhere that could use a little freshening scent.
Historically, Japanese sachets have consisted of a plain or brocade cloth bag with “Nioi-koh” – a powdered mix of fragrant natural ingredients such as clove, camphor and sandalwood – inside. These sachets continue this long-held style.
