All MCKK products are designed around "sensitivity and closeness to nature".
The ingredients are as natural as possible.
The aroma uses natural essential oils, such as rice bran discarded at sake breweries and plant-derived wax.
We value the perspective of making use of natural cycles and resources rooted in the land.
The experience of "hearing" the scent
What is important in the design of scents is the spirit of Japan's scent culture, which is to "hear" rather than "smell" the scent.
The incense is made with 100% plant-based ingredients with craftsmen on Awaji Island.
The name of the fragrance is also an abstract word such as "rest", "vitality", and "concentration".
The way you feel changes depending on your physical and mental state that day - to leave a blank space for such sensibility.
The very act of lighting a fire and rising smoke becomes a switch that switches from thought to sensation.
Reinterpretation of the act of washing hands
Hand soap is made by upcycling rice bran discarded at sake breweries and adding the aroma of the natural essential oil cypress.
Not only for "hygiene", but also as a ritual to switch consciousness and presence, such as "purification" at shrines, we focused on hand washing.
The feel of the bubbles, the sound of water, the scent...... The series of actions that touch them will be an opportunity to return to the here and now.
Gazing at nature, handicrafts, and time
Based on scent and gesture,
MCKK's products are commonly based on the following values:
1) Cherish materials and sensations that are in harmony with nature
2) Respect the unique expression born from the hands of craftsmen
3) To find beauty in the process and the accumulation of time
It's not just a "thing", but the sense of the user is opened,
We design products as an "experience" that allows the person to take a detour in their own way.
