K18, the biotech-powered haircare leader, today announced its first-ever fragrance and brand collaboration with Future Society, the pioneering biotech fragrance house. K18’s partnership with Future Society brings together two trailblazing companies and introduces a revolutionary biotech collaboration that merges molecular repair with scent innovation: the K18 x Future Society Floating Forest Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask.
This is the first time K18 has partnered with another biotech beauty brand, underscoring the industry-shaping potential of collaboration. The K18 x Future Society Floating Forest Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask is powered by K18’s patented K18PEPTIDE™ and infused with Future Society’s Floating Forest fragrance, proving that biotechnology can deliver both functional performance and deeply emotive sensory experiences. The limited-edition launch brings together K18’s category-defining hair repair technology with Future Society’s groundbreaking approach to fragrance, made from extinct flower DNA, marking a milestone for biotech beauty uniting two categories through shared science and imagination.
“At K18, we’ve always believed that biotech could unlock what was once thought lost,” said Suveen Sahib, Co-Founder and CEO of K18. “Future Society’s pioneering work in reconstructing the DNA of scents from extinct flowers provided the perfect foundation for our first fragrance collaboration. By fusing this breakthrough in forgotten scents with our expertise in molecular repair, we’ve created an experience where biotech doesn’t just restore – it elevates, transforming repair into a truly multisensory ritual. Together, we’re showing that biotech isn’t just shaping the future of beauty; it’s redefining how we experience it today.”
“This collaboration is a blueprint for the future of beauty: biotech delivering extraordinary performance, while reconnecting us to health, nature, and self-expression,” said Jasmina Aganovic, Founder/CEO of Future Society at Arcaea . “By combining K18’s expertise in hair health with our work in fragrance innovation, we’re opening new doors for how people experience beauty in their daily lives.”
At the core of the K18 x Future Society Floating Forest Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask is the patented K18PEPTIDE™, engineered to repair damage from bleach, color, chemical services, and heat in just 4 minutes, restoring strength, softness, smoothness, and bounce for all hair types.
For the first time, the leave-in mask is infused with Future Society’s most popular scent, Floating Forest, a fragrance rooted in the DNA of an extinct rainforest tree once found only in Borneo. The scent profile invites wearers into a moment of calm and reflection:
- Top: Cooling Bergamot + Black Pepper
- Heart: Dewy Freesia, Water Lily + Rose Absolute
- Base: Salted Musk, Wet Stones + Papyrus
The result is a truly sensorial repair experience, proving that biotech can unlock new dimensions in beauty.
The K18 x Future Society Floating Forest Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask is available now at Sephora, K18hair.com, wearefuturesociety.com and will be available in Sephora stores on October 3rd, 2025.
