Introduction of 'Hana Relax' Jingle
In a unique approach to self-care, Pathcreate Co., Ltd., based in Shinjuku, Tokyo, has launched an original jingle titled 'Hana Relax!' The aim is to make nasal rinsing, which is an integral part of self-care, more accessible and memorable for consumers. The jingle will be played throughout all Kirin Drugstores from February 1 to March 31, 2026. The catchy tune is designed to keep the 'Hana Rira' brand at the forefront of customers' minds while they shop.
Background
Pathcreate has been focusing on providing easy self-care options for daily life, particularly through its nasal irrigation product, 'Hana Rira.' As allergy season approaches, many individuals face discomfort from nasal issues, yet nasal rinsing remains an underutilized solution. Competing products often overshadow the 'Hana Rira' in drugstore aisles, making it essential to create more opportunities for customers to recognize the brand and its benefits. By using in-store music as a natural touchpoint, Pathcreate aims to increase the brand's visibility with the jingle 'Hana Relax!'
Features and Style of the Jingle
The production of 'Hana Relax!' was thoughtfully crafted to ensure that the song is easily remembered and can be recalled after hearing it even for a short while during shopping. With a catchy rhythm and concise lyrics, the jingle incorporates messaging that conveys the product's purpose without sounding forced. The goal is that when customers experience nasal irritation or visit the drugstore, they will easily recall the jingle and think, 'Oh, there’s Hana Rira!'
The Mascot of 'Hana Rira' - Rira-chan
The lively character representing 'Hana Rira,' Rira-chan, embodies the friendly and approachable nature of the brand. This mascot serves to personify the health benefits of nasal irrigation and encourages consumers to integrate this self-care routine into their lives.
