Co-Developed with Aroma Professionals



This season, MTRCWX introduces "scent." The collection features cardigans, shirts, and training jackets designed for ease of movement.

The colorful cardigans and shirts come with aroma chips from Australia's "Jasmin AROMATIQUE Organics," matched to the color concept of each piece. While the high volatility of pure essential oils used in aromatherapy has historically posed a challenge for scent longevity, these aroma chips utilize a medical-grade film. This material allows for the safe diffusion of small, consistent amounts of pure essential oil, ensuring extended fragrance.

The aroma chips can be used in various places, such as shirt pockets, wallets, desk drawers, or travel bags. The scent lasts for approximately 10 days after opening the seal.

Details showcase MINOTAUR's signature ingenuity, including a button-down shirt with a placket reminiscent of a polo shirt and a cardigan with flap pockets.

The training jacket is a co-creation with "@aroma," a company that offers scent services merging Western aromatherapy with Japanese sensibilities. The fabric itself is infused with aromatic compounds, and the aroma capsules burst with movement, releasing fragrance. If the scent fades, it can be revived by spraying with the included aroma mist.

The jacket features a distinctive diagonal front zip and a variety of check patterns. A large, stowable hood is integrated into the neckline.

All items are made with sweat-wicking, quick-drying, UV-protective, and stretchable materials used in Wacoal's CW-X line, ensuring comfort for sports, travel, or office casual wear. Sizes range from S to L, with an additional women's XS available.
