is supposedly scented with alkampor or naphtalene
balls. The dance is also
called PandanggohanPanyo. Pieces of clothing
(dainty handkerchiefs or scarves included) were
kept inside wooden boxes in the olden days. Often,
two to three balls of alkampor were placed inside

these boxes to keep rats away or to prevent the

clothings from smelling like tuum, with the pungentaromatic smell it leaves on the clothing. Wearing
clothes with strong alkampor smell is thought to be
a "head turner", especially with the "romance
inducing" powers of the alkampor, according to
superstition.

Kabuki-is an art form rich in showmanship. It

involves elaborately designed costumes, eye-catching make-up, outlandish wigs, and arguably
most importantly, the exaggerated actions performed by the actors. The highly-stylized
movements serve to convey meaning to the audience; this is especially important since an oldfashioned form of the Japanese language is traditionally being used, which is difficult even for
some Japanese people to understand.
