Shiten Shinrō (Four Heavenly Wolf) Illustration: The wolf, also known as “Ōkuchi‑no‑Magami,” is a deified Japanese wolf revered since ancient times as a guardian beast that wards off misfortune and guides travelers. Fragrance: Imagined as a messenger that carries good fortune, this blend features Indonesian agarwood (jinkoh) refined with several traditional natural ingredients for a calm, composed depth. Kyūbi‑no‑Kitsune (Nine‑Tailed Fox) Illustration: In Japan the nine‑tailed fox is famed as a great yōkai, while in ancient China it was counted among auspicious spirit beasts. Here the divine fox rises from flame, dances, and proclaims good omens. Fragrance: A powerful, festive impression built around premium Indian sandalwood (byakudan), arranged to feel radiant and bold. Karitaka (Hunting Hawk) Illustration: In the traditional 72 micro‑seasons, “Taka sunawachi waza o narau” marks the time when young hawks practice hunting and prepare to leave the nest. The soaring hawk has long been a lucky emblem.
