Morning Star Rose Incense Sticks
£4.50
Morning Star Rose Incense Sticks have the classic fragrance of the Damask Rose. In both Greek and Roman mythology the rose is said to be of divine origin. One legend recounts that Venus, Goddess of love and beauty, pricked her finger on the thorn of a white rose. Her blood turned the petals red, creating the first ever perfume in history.
In Catholic symbolism, the rose is a sacred attribute of the Virgin Mary, especially honoured during May, her dedicated month.
Morning Star is Nippon Kodo's everyday incense and you really do not need a special reason to burn it beyond loving the fragrance you have chosen.
