The welcoming and familiar scent of a Japanese temple. Tatami (rice straw mats) warmed in the sun, with soothing temple incense. 

The singular scent that can evoke the time spent in Japan by any traveler is that of the iconic tatami mats that line temples, restaurants, and homes. When tatami ages and warms, it creates a pleasant natural aroma in the space. There is no way to naturally distill the scent of the rice straw of which most tatami mats are woven, so we sourced a cypress that has undergone the same treatment process as tatami and painstakingly recreated the scent of rice straw tatami in a temple. Due to our sourcing of these unique ingredients, initial application may be strong before it warms and deepens, similar to that of the life cycle of tatami.

Spiritual Moment

There are a million things I could say about this scent--none of them will do it justice. It is----very simply put----exactly what it says it is.
The photo-realism of the tatami is stunning but not really what stole my heart--it is the absolute sensation of being warmed in the sun. With one spray I am sat outside a temple at mid-day in early spring, it's been a long winter and the first pink buds are on the trees. The feeling of the sun, the hope for summer, the peace and serenity of such a simple moment.
Realistically, the rice is toasted and bran-y, I can smell the agarwood incense, dark wood floors, steeping tea, and golden sunlight. I gasped when I smelled it--I felt something deeply emotional. It also blooms as it sits, becoming woody and soft.
