Affective Science

Affective science Image

Our five senses each affect one another in what is known as cross-modal perception. Because of this, olfactory stimuli can influence how we perceive the input from our other senses.
Lion has been researching cross-modal effects for more than 20 years. We study the ways that fragrances impact not just taste, but even touch, hearing and sight, and present our research findings at academic conferences.

Creation Technology

In our development of toothpastes, which boast more than a century of history, we use only high-quality natural mint, designing flavors based on specific concepts and targets.
Our creation technology, which balances taste and aroma, is the result of combining scientific approaches and art with inherited traditional skills and techniques.
