Featuring Byakudan (Sandalwood), Jinkō (Aloeswood) and Kyara, the set offers an opportunity to experience how dramatically these materials differ in fragrance, depth and aromatic development.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach incense places the character of its principal fragrant wood at the centre. Byakudan is creamy, fresh and comparatively light; Jinkō moves into warmer resin, aromatic spice and darker woody depth; while Kyara reveals a more intricate interplay between dry freshness, resin, earth and restrained sweetness. Experienced side by side, the differences between the three become particularly apparent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePresented as shorter approximately 6 cm sticks in a paulownia wood box, the Discovery Set is an excellent introduction for those new to Minorien or to Japanese fragrant woods. The shorter format also makes it possible to explore each fragrance without committing to a full-length burn, while the presentation makes the set particularly suited to gifting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Fragrances\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFu-in Byakudan (Sandalwood) | 20 sticks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreamy sandalwood with distinctly fresh impressions of natural wood and cool mineral notes.

Minorien's restrained approach gives the series an unusual clarity, making it possible to appreciate the differences between the woods themselves rather than encountering them beneath a dominant perfume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three fragrances in this set provide a particularly useful introduction to that approach. Byakudan demonstrates the creamy richness and fresh, lighter character of sandalwood. Jinkō introduces the resinous depth of aloeswood, developing greater warmth, spice and persistence. Kyara, itself an exceptionally prized classification of aloeswood, reveals another dimension again: greater aromatic intricacy, with contrasting fresh, dry, resinous and earthy characteristics moving through the fragrance as it burns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExperienced together, the set provides both an introduction to Minorien and a way to begin recognising the characteristics that distinguish sandalwood, jinkō and kyara within Japanese incense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Producer\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eFor generations, the family behind Minorien operated an incense shop in Osaka, serving temples and households with traditional Japanese incense. During the air raids of the Second World War, the family was forced to leave Osaka and relocated to Katata in Shiga Prefecture. It was there that the foundations of the present company were established before eventually settling in nearby Wani, where the business adopted the name Minorien. \u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Minorien remains an independent manufacturer specialising in incense made from carefully selected natural aromatic materials. Rather than creating fragrances dominated by perfume, its approach is to reveal the inherent character of sandalwood, aloeswood and other fragrant woods through restrained, balanced compositions. The company often likens this philosophy to \u003cem\u003eshōjin ryōri\u003c\/em\u003e, where the role of the maker is to draw out the qualities already present within each ingredient. The result is incense valued by both temples and private collectors for its depth, refinement and authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Minorien","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48126155194598,"sku":null,"price":48.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0170\/9420\/files\/Minorien_Fuin_Series_Incense_Discovery_Set_EHGS.jpg?v=1786194486","url":"https:\/\/easternhillgs.com\/ko\/products\/minorien-fuin-discovery-incense-set-byakudan-jinko-kyara","provider":"Eastern Hill General Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
