"Goose Pear Pavilion" Incense Sticks
"Jiangnan Pear Blossom Boudoir Incense," also known as "Goose Pear Chamber Scent," hails from an era where poetry and passion intertwined, immortalized in the verses of Lady Huarui's "Palace Poems" during the Five Dynasties period.
"Though the king visits not the chamber, always burns the sweet incense of longing," capturing the essence of a love both deep and unyielding. Legend tells of the Southern Tang's last emperor, Li Yu, and his consort, Empress Zhou, a beauty of both appearance and intellect, whose laughter and grace could tilt realms. Renowned for her love of incense, she crafted exquisite burners, filling their quarters with a fragrance so profound that it seemed a mist of divinity enveloped her, rendering her ethereal. This scent, named for the pear blossoms that might have graced their chambers, is designed to seduce sleep and evoke desire, a tribute to the enduring love and artistic soul of the empress, veiled in the delicate smoke of history's whisper.
