The Hakudo Mono Diffuser Set includes a cork diffuser pillar & a 30ml Hakudo Botanical Essence with dripper pipette, assembled in a paulownia wooden box, traditionally handcrafted in Ishikawa, Japan. The cork diffuser pillar is a sculptural and olfactive object in space, shaped from burnt cork. Created by Antwerp based Studio Corkinho in collaboration with Aoiro. To Activate: 1. Place the cork diffuser on the wooden plate. 2. Activate the cork by slowly dripping 1-2 pipettes of Hakudo botanical essence on the surface. 3. The essence will gently diffuse itself in the air, delivering a subtle scent impression within your personal space. 4. Use 5-10 drops to reactivate. Hakudo Botanical Essence Hakudo offers you a quiet moment to unwind in everyday life and to uncover your authentic soul. It keeps the surrounding space purified with eleven botanical essences that work together in synergy: Hiba, Oak Moss, Amyris, Copaiba, Vetiver, Elemi, Yuzu, Green Oregano, Palmarosa, Ajowan and Cypress. Based on a philosophy derived from Kohdo, the Japanese ceremony of appreciating a subtle & exquisite fragrance, ‘listening’ to the scent allows your senses to be infused and to experience it with your entire being. It invites you to take a deep breath, to prepare yourself for the day, and to feel a sense of tranquility in the evening.
