Golden Week starts tomorrow. Every year during Golden Week, I go camping or something to refresh myself with the power of nature, but this year I planned to just relax at home with no plans to do anything in particular to soothe my daily fatigue. However, since it's such a long holiday, I feel frustrated that maybe I should have made plans to go out somewhere after all. Then I heard that Cosme Kitchen would be releasing an item that was perfect for me right now!  


It's called "Blessings of Gaia - Sky, Wind, Fire, Water, Earth". This product, released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of Cosme Kitchen, was created by flower essence producer Tanyama, who traveled to five carefully selected locations across Japan, each based on the elements of sky, wind, fire, water, and earth, each rich in natural bounty. The water is then infused with flower essences. A quick spray whenever you feel mentally and physically unwell, or when you want to express your true self, is said to purify your space and surroundings and support your natural beauty and radiance.


There are two ways to choose a fragrance. One is to intuitively choose from sacred sites, fragrances, and packaging that appeal to you, in order to replenish the energy you need at that moment. The other is to discover the energy you lack by looking at the vowels in your first name.

Since my first name is entirely composed of wind elements, I was told that balancing it out would be best. So I chose the scent of Mount Fuji, a fire spot I'd always wanted to visit, and sprayed it on. As the scent of bergamot, orange citrus, and essential oils like Himalayan cedar and sandalwood spread, I felt like the air around me was purified! I felt refreshed, like I'd just visited a power spot. It was truly a power spot traveled by scent.


By the way, the surrealist-inspired package design was created by ENLIGHTEMENT, a creative unit formed around Hiro Sugiyama. Be sure to check out the "Sustainable Bag (Marche Bag)" with the same design! This product is made with yarn made from recycled plastic waste from the ocean floor, and is an environmentally friendly product. If we receive the blessings of nature, we must protect it with gratitude.

"Blessings of Gaia - Sky, Wind, Fire, Water, Earth" will be available exclusively at Cosme Kitchen from May 1st. If you're like me and want to relax at home, but also want to be refreshed with the power of nature, why not try receiving the energy of nature from the comfort of your own home with "Blessings of Gaia - Sky, Wind, Fire, Water, Earth"?
