‘In Japan, it’s customary to store one’s things of value — books and kimonos passed on from generation to generation — in wooden chests known as tansu. A rare combination of beauty and utility, each tansu carries the history of the family it belongs to. The scent it exhales upon opening — the warmth of precious textiles kept fresh by incense — is at the core of Tansu Silk, a perfume imbued with golden patina of the past.’ – Nos Republic
