Born in Kanazawa, Toshihide Okamoto shapes spaces through plants—though what he really works with, he says, is not the plant but the space itself. That path led him to scent: an invisible material he approaches through instinct rather than theory, layering elements and waiting for time to change them. The fragrance he created for NICENESS EBISU has aged for a year, and now takes a form you can hold—a diffuser. A conversation about making the unseen, slowly.

Scotland's Isle of Skye is a landscape of irregularities, shaped by wind, waves, and time. Its sheer cliffs, meandering ridgelines, and weathered rock faces reveal a beauty that nature creates not through straight lines, but through flux. Like the serpentine curve that 18th-century painter William Hogarth called the "Line of Beauty," the island holds an allure that defies prediction. Together with Piczo, we traced the marks of time etched into both landscape and garment.
