Nippon Kodo Co., Ltd. will hold a "POPUP STORE" at @cosme TOKYO for a limited time, from Wednesday, October 7 to Tuesday, October 13, 2026, to mark the release of large-size versions of its fragrance brand "KODU." The venue offers a "fragrance diagnosis" to help you find a scent that suits you, as well as a wide range of scent suggestions that fit into everyday life.
The theme is "When scent spreads, my time spreads even further." The company explains that it positions "fragrance" as one choice for adding a pleasant touch to daily life: a moment to return to yourself in a busy day, a change of mood, and a calm time in which your favorite interior adds color to your room and your heart.
A venue-only experience: choose a scent to match your mood
The venue-only experience is a fragrance mood diagnosis titled "Meet a new scent today." Answer intuitive questions such as "How are you feeling right now?" and you will receive a scent matched to your mood, along with a suggestion for how to spend your time.
The company describes it as an experience-based POPUP STORE where you face your own feelings and find a "favorite" that makes daily life a little richer. Four brands are on display: "KODU," "CHIË," "Scentscape" and "Kayuragi."
An in-store incense sample event and purchase gifts by spending amount
As an in-store event, people who follow KODU's official Instagram account receive an incense sample. The incense is a 3-stick pack of either "Kayuragi" or "Scentscape," and the scent cannot be chosen. It is limited to one per person, and while supplies last because the quantity is limited.
The purchase gifts come in two tiers by amount spent. A purchase of ¥1,650 or more (tax included) comes with one pack of full-size KODU, and a purchase of ¥3,300 or more (tax included) comes with one pack of full-size KODU plus one turn of the Incense Gacha. The scent of the full-size pack cannot be chosen, and the Incense Gacha gives 3 cone-type incense pieces. The gifts are limited in quantity and end when they run out. After your purchase, show your receipt to the POPUP staff. Details may change without notice.
