Warmed gently by the body's own heat, it releases a subtle, elegant fragrance directly from the skin — a uniquely Japanese way of \"wearing\" incense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnder KM1's uncompromising creative direction, this centuries-old tradition has been redefined for contemporary life: not simply a reproduction of the past, but a personal ritual that sharpens the mind and body of the modern individual. Kohgen brought this vision to life, drawing on generations of knowledge of natural aromatic woods and herbal materials, together with the refined blending skill of its master perfumers, to create a fragrance of real depth and quiet composure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe series expresses nine concepts drawn from Japanese spirituality and the natural world: LOVE, UNIVERSE, DREAM, WIND, LIGHT, SKY, WATER, FIRE, and LAND. Each fragrance offers its own interpretation of these themes, inviting a moment of quiet reflection into everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLIGHT\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLIGHT stands as the series' central fragrance, drawn from a theme that has run through Kento Mori's life and work for over a decade. In August 2013, Mori performed the first-ever contemporary dance offering at Ise Grand Shrine; photographs from that day captured countless orbs of light, leading him to sense that something unseen radiates through movement itself. Since then, \"light\" has remained a defining theme of his art — reflected even in the names he gave his own children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/3003\/7997\/files\/s-3000x2000_v-frms_webp_8276d486-7494-445e-8e81-6697b86c2a7f.jpg?v=1788079827\" alt=\"Kento Mori in quiet reflection at the Ginza launch event\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMori has also long carried the words of Saicho, founder of the Tendai school of Buddhism on Mt. Hiei: \"Ichigu wo terasu\" — to illuminate one corner. Rather than seeking to light up the whole world, the phrase speaks to doing what one can, right where one stands, so that one's own corner grows a little brighter. It is this same idea that has kept the Fumetsu no Hoto, the \"Never-Extinguished Dharma Light\" at Enryakuji on Mt. Hiei, burning continuously for some 1,200 years — sustained not by any single guardian, but by generation after generation quietly adding oil where it was needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/3003\/7997\/files\/s-3000x2000_v-frms_webp_ed9d8ac2-565f-40b1-aae7-129d2cd594c8.jpg?v=1788079827\" alt=\"Kento Mori receiving a flame from Tendai priest Gyokai Imadegawa of Enryakuji\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt the launch event held at Kohgen's Ginza flagship store on August 8, 2026, Mori shared this story in conversation with Gyokai Imadegawa, a Tendai priest of Enryakuji, before closing the day with a live performance of his Ise Shrine offering dance. LIGHT was created to carry that same quiet, enduring flame — a fragrance meant to illuminate one's own corner of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/3003\/7997\/files\/s-3000x2000_v-frms_webp_72382aee-46ae-4c20-a5f5-c0dbe2529476.jpg?v=1788079827\" alt=\"Kento Mori performing his Ise Grand Shrine offering dance at the launch event\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85em;color:#888;\"\u003ePhoto: Hiroki Hara (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/hiroki_nsty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eInstagram: @hiroki_nsty\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete Set (9 Scents)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set includes one container of each of the nine THE FRAGRANCE OF JAPANESE SPIRIT fragrances — LOVE, UNIVERSE, DREAM, WIND, LIGHT, SKY, WATER, FIRE, and LAND — for those who wish to experience the full range of the collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Kento Mori\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/3003\/7997\/files\/s-820x1200_v-fms_webp_ec054b66-df56-40d8-989f-5c8f426eaf65.jpg?v=1788079826\" alt=\"Kento Mori, artist and creative director of THE FRAGRANCE OF JAPANESE SPIRIT\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;max-width:400px;height:auto;margin:0 auto;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKento Mori is a globally celebrated artist recognized by some of the world's greatest performers, including Madonna and Michael Jackson.
