What is the Mercat character, and what does it represent?

Mercat is Hysses' original collectible character, born from the meeting of Singapore's iconic Merlion and the beloved fortune cat. It's a playful symbol of local identity, joy, and prosperity — celebrating where heritage meets modern charm.

Why are the three editions named Singa, Pura, and Tasek?

The three editions — Singa, Pura, and Tasek — are derived from the historical roots of “Singapura” and “Temasek,” the early names of Singapore.Singa comes from Singapura (“lion”)Pura comes from Singapura (“city”)Tasek comes from Temasek (“sea town”)Together, they honour Singapore’s heritage and evolution, reimagined as three collectible Mercat characters.

How long does the scent from the Mercat Scented Tag last?

The fragrance traditionally lasts 3–6 weeks, depending on humidity and will gradually fade over time. This gentle fading is part of the natural rhythm of the ritual — simply discard the tag once the scent has faded.

Where is the best place to hang or place the tag?

Hang or place it in wardrobes, drawers, or bags — anywhere with a little airflow to let the fragrance release evenly.

What fragrance notes make up Pandanus Lily?

Pandanus Lily blends the soft, grassy sweetness of pandan leaf with the calm, white-floral depth of lily absolute — a scent traditionally associated with freshness, calm, and quiet restoration.
