Story & Recommendation
A new fragrance experience allows you to enjoy each and every scent’s story
Have you ever imagined the story that lies behind each and every fragrance? Have you ever experienced fragrances with themes layered in countless emotions, such as the feeling of viewing vibrantly-colored mountains in fall, the feeling of the refreshing seaside wind on a mid-summer’s evening, or the sadness brought by the end of your first love affair? Lisn Kyoto allows you to experience profound fragrances, each with their own grand story. The first visual your eyes will feast upon is the stylish lineup of incense on display. Around 150 types of incense are available, each with their own fragrance as well as their own unique theme. With a diverse array of concepts revolving around seasons, colors, and emotions, you can adopt the fragrance that suits your mood at any given moment. The interior of the store offers a relaxed but stylish and fashionable atmosphere. The glass displays provide an impression of all that is modern and new, but in fact this fragrance specialty shop has been in existence since the Edo era, three hundreds years ago, selling incense produced by Shoyeido. Lisn desires to take the traditional fragrances of Japan and put them in a form that will better allow them to be enjoyed by people with a modern lifestyle. Lisn Kyoto incense allows you to experience a lifestyle full of fragrances in a new form. Make sure you treat yourself to this experience upon your visit to Kyoto.
