Akatsuki Co., Ltd. (Memuro-cho, Hokkaido; CEO: Satoru Tobita) announced the launch of its corporate scent branding service, 'KIWAMI,' beginning June 24, 2026.

The service was conceptualized by the entrepreneur himself, an avid runner who logs 300km monthly. It combines 100% natural Todomatsu essential oil from Tokachi, Hokkaido, with the commercial aroma diffuser 'kaguyama,' with scent design provided by aroma space producer Yuko Hashimoto (K's Aroma).

A key feature is the adoption of a 'pay-per-use model,' which is unprecedented in the commercial aroma industry. In addition to a monthly lease fee of 15,000 yen, users are charged 90 yen/hour (excluding tax) based on operating hours automatically measured by an IoT smart plug. This design ensures transparency and minimizes wasted costs.

The service's main advantages are: 1. Transparent Sourcing: Essential oils distilled in-house from Todomatsu trees harvested in Tokachi by Irodori Farm Co., Ltd. 2. Highly Efficient Diffusers: Micro-mist technology in 'kaguyama' (manufactured by Aroma Design Co., Ltd.) minimizes essential oil consumption. 3. Expert Scent Supervision: Premium space design by industry professionals.

Demonstration units are currently available for complimentary installation.
