The Rainfall Market

If you could swap your life for a better one, which would you choose?

On the outskirts of Rainbow Town, there is an old, abandoned house. They say that if you send a letter detailing your misfortunes there, you could receive a ticket. If you bring this ticket to the house on the first day of the rainy season, you'll be granted entrance into the mysterious Rainfall Market—where you can choose to completely change your life.

No one is more surprised than Serin when she receives a ticket. Lonely and with no real prospects for a future, Serin ventures to the market, determined to create a better life for herself.

There, she meets a magical cat companion named Issha and they search through bookstores, perfumeries, and fantastical realms while Serin tries to determine what her perfect life will look like.

The catch? Serin only has one week to find her happiness or be doomed to vanish into the market forever.

And all the while, a shadow follows quietly behind them...

Cozy Pairings

Each pairing is chosen to create a cozy moment where scent, story, and craft come together.
Vanilla & Cashmere

Vanilla & Cashmere is a soft and luxurious fragrance that blends creamy vanilla with warm sandalwood, gentle musk, and smooth cashmere notes. Subtle and refined, this scent feels clean, comforting, and quietly indulgent. The warmth of vanilla is balanced by light woods and soft musk, creating a smooth, layered aroma that lingers beautifully without overpowering. It brings a sense of calm and ease to any space, like wrapping yourself in something soft at the end of the day.

Why we chose this: Serin received a ticket to the Rainfall Market, where she could choose an entirely different life, and she spent a week wandering through bookstores and perfumeries and fantastical realms trying to understand what happiness actually looks like. Vanilla + Cashmere carries the soft, quietly indulgent warmth of a story about someone learning that the life they have been looking for is harder to define than expected and sweeter to find than they imagined. Light this candle as Serin sets off with her magical cat companion, and let the warmth of vanilla and sandalwood fill the room like a market that appears once a year in the rain and leaves behind exactly what you needed.
