The Sacred Scent of the Andes

The Mayan Indians and Aztecs burned this resin with a unique spicy aroma during sacred ceremonies. They regarded it as a protective god endowed with magical powers and used to purify people and places. Aromatic trees are also called the trees of the gods and grow in various places around the world. They have been used since ancient times in rituals to purify not only the atmosphere, but also the body and mind.

The Chië collection : is a more luxurious range of incense from Nippon Kodo inspired by the wisdom of our ancestors and adapted to modern life, allowing you to connect with nature and create a ritual space of peace around and within you.

Chië does not use essential oils and is only made from the natural aromatic ingredients. The burning time for the different ingredients differs and is maintained so that the unique quality and characteristics of each fragrance can emerge.

The Japanese word Chië refers to the ability to see things as they really are in order to understand the ultimate truth. In Zen, Chïe is the result of meditative practice. The Zen calligraphic circle on the packaging is called "en-so" and represents infinity and the universe as a whole, associated with pure enlightenment.
