They say: Literally translated from the Japanese Mainichi-Koh means 'Incense for everyday use.'

And that is exactly what it is and what Mainichi-Koh has been in Japan for more than 80 years, where it has enjoyed a wideranging popularity that has appealed to people of all ages recalling unforgettable memories.

In an age when spiritual longings should transcend material aspirations, it is important to nourish those yearnings that emanate in the heart and motivate one to seek that love, friendship, graciousness and happiness that date back to their earliest remembrances. We, at Nippon Kodo, believe that Mainichi-Koh, which was fashioned from a traditional sandalwood formula that was popular in Japan thousands of years ago, realizes these long-sought goals and evokes an aura of graceful elegance and a feeling of deep contentment.

"It is great to be selling the number one selling brand in Japan. It shows the beautiful difference in culture. How in Japan for many many people incense really is for everyday use. In common with many cultures burning incense is very much seen as a form of spiritual remembrance and connection. The symbol of this connection to the spiritual is the smoke, which represents the subtle realms.

The aroma is the woody, sweet popular smell of sandalwood." - Brett
