Samurai burned incense in their helmets as a way to mask the smell of sweat and blood during battle, creating a more pleasant experience. This practice also had a symbolic significance, as the fragrances were thought to represent purity and honor. Additionally, the soothing scent could help calm nerves and focus the mind in the heat of combat. Overall, it combined practicality with a deeper cultural and spiritual meaning.
