MAPUTI boasts an impressive track record, with over 20 million units sold across its product lines. A cornerstone of the brand’s identity is its signature “MAPUTI fragrance,” a completely original scent meticulously crafted over a year with a perfumer from Grasse, France—the world-renowned capital of perfume. This unique aroma, built on a musk base, offers a sophisticated blend of sweetness, freshness, and allure. The collaboration with Sho Kasamatsu aims to convey the subtle, inviting essence of MAPUTI’s shampoo and treatment to a wider audience through visual storytelling.

The web videos are masterfully crafted to highlight the comfortable atmosphere created by the MAPUTI fragrance. They depict intimate moments where the distance between individuals subtly shortens, all from a first-person female perspective. Kasamatsu, known for his diverse roles in film and television, brings these everyday “Kyun” moments to life, creating a series of short, relatable narratives.
