THE TALE OF GENJI - A 1000 year old Japanese novel

Scents of The Tale of Genji in the Genji museum of Uji city south of Kyoto..Possibly one of the more impressive points within The Tale of Genji is scents. The tale touches upon the exquisite scents of Kaoru and Niou no Miya, which, as their names imply, became evident merely from their proximity. This indicates the importance of scents to the Heian aristocrats. This exhibit gives an insight into what scents were used in that period, along with the tools and materials for incense..
