The incense arrived in Japan in the sixth century in the aromatic luggage of Buddhist monks, although the legend collected in the Nihonshoki presents a different story that goes through the discovery of a piece of oud wood collected on the shores of the islands in times of Empress Suiko, 6th century, and that when launched into the flames began to give off a very pleasant smell which led the locals to offer it as a gift to the Empress." - a note from the brand.
