It was measured on real dog brains, not a survey
Inje University measured dogs' brain waves (EEG) while their owners left the room. With our active compounds, α-santalol in RENEWOOD NICHE and S-linalool in CALMOLI NICHE, separation-anxiety indicators dropped 40.2%. A room fragrance that happens to be studied.

It smells like a niche perfume, because it's made like one
Materials from Grasse, France, blended in our own lab. RENEWOOD NICHE is sandalwood, hinoki and geranium. CALMOLI NICHE is neroli, palmarosa and rosewood. Nothing in either that reads as 'pet product'.

It's dog-safe by design, not by disclaimer
No menthol, no eugenol, no synthetic musks, no phthalates. Every ingredient was chosen for a nose 10,000x more sensitive than yours. Spray the room or the stone, never the dog.

One spray on the NICHE STONE, twelve hours of scent
An unglazed ceramic dog that holds a spray and releases it slowly. No flame, no plug, no reeds. It lives by the door, in the car cup holder, on the nightstand.

It calms you too. That part is not an accident.
The same ritual that cues your dog cues you. We call it co-wellness: one ritual, two nervous systems. Most owners start for the dog and keep going for themselves.

“We didn't set out to make a pet product. We set out to make the fragrance we'd want in our own apartments, with our own dogs in them.”

Pick your scent. The calm is the same.
RENEWOOD NICHE is woody and grounding. CALMOLI NICHE is floral and soft. The set adds the NICHE STONE, the part that turns a spray into all-day fragrance.

Questions before you buy
Do I spray it on my dog?
Never. Spray the room, the NICHE STONE, bedding or your car mats. Your dog should always be able to walk away from it.
Is it a treatment for anxiety?
No. Behavior work is the base: gradual alone-time training, a trainer or your vet for severe cases. This is the scent cue you build into that routine.
What if my dog hates it?
Tell us within 14 days of delivery and we refund you in full. No questions asked, no return label hunt.
Where does it ship from?
From our lab in Busan, Korea, where every bottle is blended and filled. International courier, typically 7 to 14 business days to a US address. Free shipping on orders over $50.
How long does a bottle last?
100 ml / 3.4 fl oz. About 6 to 8 weeks at one or two sprays a day. One spray on the NICHE STONE holds for about 12 hours.
The next time you light a candle, don't.
RENEWOOD NICHE or CALMOLI NICHE, each with the NICHE STONE. $77, free US shipping over $50, 14-day money-back guarantee.
