Kunjudo HA KO Black Sleep – Japanese Incense Paper

Kunjudo HA KO Black Sleep is a Japanese incense paper made from perfumed washi paper on Awaji Island. The finely embossed and carefully cut paper resembles a real leaf, with its detailed leaf veins and natural silhouette. HA KO can be burned as incense paper or used without burning as a decorative scented leaf.

HA KO is an original creation by Kunjudo and is produced using a patented manufacturing process. Its name combines the Japanese concepts of leaf and fragrance or incense. The HA KO Black line is distinguished by more contemporary, intense fragrance compositions and a high proportion of natural essential oils.

HA KO Black Sleep – cedarwood, lavender and patchouli

Sleep combines cedarwood and lavender with patchouli. The composition contrasts the woody character of cedar with the floral and aromatic facets of lavender, while patchouli contributes an earthy, slightly tart depth. The result is a warm, complex fragrance that brings together woody, floral and earthy notes.

The name Sleep reflects the tranquil fragrance atmosphere that Kunjudo associates with this variation within the HA KO Black series. Alongside Relax, Focus, Awaken and Dive, Sleep belongs to a collection of fragrance compositions, each with its own distinct character.

Use as incense paper or a scented leaf

To burn as incense, light one end of the leaf and then blow out the flame. Place the smouldering leaf on a fireproof surface and allow it to burn slowly. The burning time is approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Do not leave unattended while smouldering.

HA KO can also be used without burning. The scented leaf can, for example, be placed inside a book or letter, or displayed as a small decorative fragrance object, where it gradually releases its perfume. The principle is somewhat reminiscent of Papier d’Arménie, but HA KO is a distinctive Japanese creation made from embossed washi paper in an artfully crafted leaf shape.
