The Seikado Daikoboku Byakudan smells of wood burning in the beginning and intermittently thereafter. Light sandal scent is emitted after that (similar to Shunkohdo Sarasoju Sandal). Dry, woody notes (no resinous notes) were discerned. It feels a bit austere. None of the powdery sweet note of Keiga Byakudan was detected, though there was a very slight trace of Indian incense vibe. The smoke was somewhat thin and scattered. The scent is subtle and does not travel across a wider radius (more subtle than Shunkohdo Sarasoju). It feels open and quiet. But it can feel "temple-like" and even acrid if one gets closer in the way of the smoke. It left a subtle sweet sandalwood scent up to 45 minutes after extinguishment.

it is a somewhat straightforward sandalwood incense, similar to Shunkohdo Sarasota but without the resinous and sweet notes. It burns for about 35 minutes for me.

This is a good option if you are looking for a straightforward sandalwood scent without much additives and embellishments.

When the Keiga Byakudan (Sandalwood) was first ignited, it smells like Shunkohdo Sarasoju Sandal (my previous and first purchase) for a short while, but with lesser wood burning smell. Subsequently, light sandal scent was discerned, though it carried with it a more powdery and sweet note: very Indian incense feel. Feels dry but not woody and resinous. The smoke is very thin and scattered. The scent could only be discerned when one gets more up close, and it does not feel dense and acrid at all. The scent is quite unified and consistent throughout the burn. The burned ash curls into a U/horseshoe-shape before falling. It left a subtle signature sweet sandalwood scent up to 60 minutes after extinguishment. Burn time was quite ample - approximately 47 minutes for me.

The Keiga Byakudan is a refined, open and calming incense. I find myself reaching for it very often.

This was my repeated purchase from Wa no Kaori. Their product offerings are wide and the purchasing process very efficient.

I highly recommend Keigado Keiga Byakudan and Wa no Kaori.

A hint of sweetness, combines well with it's grown up character. Like eating chocolate and listening to oud music. It's an experience.

My favourite scent.
Very easy to use and convenient size for a brief moment of calm.

Fills the room with sweet creamy cup of coffee smell. It's no smoke and no ash as advertised. Literally ash-free. Amazing.

I love this scent very much. I bought one when I visited Osaka and fell in love with it. It's so good that I'm willing to order it with international shipping <3. I'm usually not a fan of the magnolia note, but this one smells beautifully soapy and floral. I purchased 12 Kousaido perfume balms from this shop, and after trying many different ones, this is still my favorite.

I love this incense. It make me feel better as soon as I start to burn

A nice sandalwood blend with a hint of forest freshness. Very enjoyable & affordable.

Enjoyable classic. You need to try it at least once. The price is very friendly.

Very nice & traditional daily blend.

Easy service and extremely fast delivery at a great price would shop again!

A soft and mild sandalwood incense. Good for any time of the day.

Precious product to use during meditation. It offers a unique touch that stays in the room for a long time.

Traditional. Nuanced. Exquisite.
