Essential Hinoki To Go Kit

Among the many discoveries we experienced on a recent trip to Seoul’s Jeju Island is the bountiful scent of Hinoki, a cypress tree native to East Asia. Hinok is a local brand that leverages Hinoki-infused water to create fresh smelling room spray, laundry, hand and body products. This travel kit is a great way to to discover two of their signature items—the Hinoki Spray To Go (100ml) and the Hand Balm Mini (20ml). The spray is 100% Hinoki water with no other ingredients; the Hand Balm uses Hinoki water instead of purified water and both are upcycled. You may not easily be able to visit Jeju Island, but these items bring a little of its magic to you.
