Discover the essence of Japan's sacred forests with DS&Durga's Amber Kiso perfume. Hailing from serene Kiso, this scent embodies an ancient tradition, with rare woods and temple essences that will transport your senses to a sacred place.

Japanese forests contain numerous trees whose wood is sacred in traditional religious ceremonies. The connection to the forest is embodied in ritual offerings that include incense made from these rare woods.

The hardy hinoki wood has been used in temples, Noh theaters, baths and masu. Kiso forest hinoki was used at Ise Shrine in Mie Prefecture. Sawara cypress is a sturdy "false" cypress with a lemony scent and fibrous red bark. The wood is also used for temples and shrines. It grows wild on the islands of Kyushu and Honshu.

Asahi zuru maple is an ancient variety of maple native to Japan with beautifully ornamented pink, white and green leaves. Its name means "swan at dawn".
