To smell: Princess Shouyang's Plum Blossom Incense
This incense was named after Princess Shouyang of the Southern Dynasty (AD420-589).
The princess, also known as "Plum Blossom Goddess", was well-known for her enchanting plum blossom makeup.
It was recorded that the princess was fascinated by the flower so much that she invented three kinds of plum blossom incense, which were "Plum Blossom Scent", "Spring Message in the Snow" and "Spring Call".
Modern technology breathed new life into the princess's recipe, and created both incense and perfume.
The Chinese medicinal herbs in the incense could help you relax and calm down quickly.
You could burn the incense while making a cup of tea.
