Hot Issue

Created for the KST SCENT 2026 Pride Collection, Hot Issue celebrates visibility, beauty, and fearless self-expression. Inspired by a glamorous trans icon who helped reshape Korean pop culture, it is a fragrance about confidence, individuality, and the courage to be seen.

Top: Jeju Mandarin, Red Shiso Leaf, Ginseng

Heart: Fire Camellia Blooms, Omija Tea, Jeju Volcanic Ash

Base: Bokbunja Wine, Cherry Lipgloss, Hanji Paper

The fragrance opens with the bright sparkle of Jeju mandarin, sharpened by red shiso leaf and the herbal warmth of ginseng. Vibrant and attention-grabbing, it evokes the confidence of stepping into the spotlight and embracing who you are without apology.

At its heart, fire camellia blooms and omija tea create a contrast of elegance and energy. Floral, tart, and radiant, they are grounded by the mineral depth of Jeju volcanic ash, adding strength beneath the glamour.

As the fragrance settles, bokbunja wine lends a rich berry sweetness while cherry lipgloss adds a playful, glossy shine. Hanji paper softens the composition with a delicate texture, leaving behind the feeling of a story carefully preserved through time.

Hot Issue is a tribute to beauty as resistance, glamour as survival, and the courage to become visible in a world that tried to look away.
