IQOS 'REMIX YOUR STYLE' NIGHT.

A Special Evening at the IQOS Store in Shinsaibashi with NEAT Designer Daishi Nishino.

A special event commemorating the release of the limited-edition IQOS model, the “IQOS Irma i Remix Model,” was held on June 12 at the “IQOS Store Shinsaibashi.” The event featured a performance by the poetry dance unit Aoitsuki, a raffle for limited-edition collaborative design items created by media artist Daito Manabe, and a DJ set by O.N.O. I visited the event with Daishi Nishino, designer at NEAT, for a night where these various talents intersected and were remixed.

I’ll always be with IQOS.

“I never go to clubs or anything like that, and this was pretty much my first time at an event like this, but I genuinely had a great time,” said Nishino. It was impressive to see her enjoying herself from start to finish, even on a night that was a departure from her usual routine.

The theme of this event was ”REMIX YOUR STYLE.” The evening, packed with a variety of experiences—including performances, DJs, food, and workshops—was a testament to the IQOS brand’s commitment to going beyond its products and engaging with users’ personal styles. And just one device was enough to bring people together and create an evening like this. Once again, it was clear just how strong the brand’s appeal is.

Mr. Nishino currently owns three Irma i devices, which he uses for his desk at home, his office at work, and on the go. When he goes on business trips, he makes it a habit to take all three with him. “I’m most afraid of running out of battery, so the more I have, the better,” he says with a laugh. Before he knew it, they had become an integral part of his daily life.

The fourth model to join the lineup is this limited-edition modelnote 1These are models. Some models are currently available at major convenience stores nationwide.*2. This offer ends when supplies run out, so if you're interested, please act quickly.

That night, during his first visit to the IQOS Store, Mr. Nishino made another discovery. The wide selection of accessories, the engraving service (included in bundle sets with eligible devices), and the comfort of the lounge. “I regret not coming here sooner. I’m sure there are plenty of IQOS users out there who, like me, don’t know about this place. I definitely want to recommend it, and from now on, I’ll definitely stop by whenever I see one!”

The “IQOS ILMA i Remix Model” went on sale on June 10. From left to right: Irma i One (manufacturer's suggested retail price: ¥4,980), Irma i (manufacturer's suggested retail price: ¥7,980), and Irma i Prime (manufacturer's suggested retail price: ¥11,980).

The Irma i Prime features a special hard case in its packaging design that evokes the look of a music box or a DJ setup.
