Introducing Kiso Forest

Element Brooklyn · September 19, 2024 · 1 min read

We've just launched new hand and body soaps. Inspired by the cypress forests of Japan and by Le Labo's Hinoki range, they transport you to an evergreen world of peace and renewal.

A walk through Kiso Forest

Japan’s Kiso Forest in Nagano Prefecture is home to the Hinoki cypress tree, renowned for its calming, earthy fragrance. For centuries, Hinoki wood has been used to craft Japan’s sacred shrines and temples, as well as traditional Sento bathhouses. Our Kiso Forest range aims to embody the spirit of Japan’s majestic woodlands.

Uncompromised quality – sustainably

We deliver the same signature quality and experience you've come to expect from luxury brands, minus the price tag.

Our Kiso Forest refill pouches are 83% cheaper per ounce than Le Labo's Hinoki Shower Gel and 73% cheaper than its Hinoki Hand Soap. And, as always, they drastically cut plastic usage; Le Labo does not sell refills.
