WonderLab, a beauty and wellness brand under CUCKOO International (MAL) Berhad (“CUCKOO Malaysia”), has partnered with STEP8IGHT Plus, the fragrance-focused sister brand of the Malaysian lifestyle brand, STEP8IGHT, to unveil their first-ever body mist collection, SCT. Beyond a collection of pleasant smells, SCT, which stands for Scent Creation Timeline, leans to a specific timeline in art and history to evoke a memory, mood and imagination through two signature body mists. By wearing each scent, individuals are encouraged to engage in a sensory dialogue that helps them reveal their own story and identity. This curated collection makes its debut at the SC8NT Pop-Up event, held at The Starhill KL, from 1 – 7 September 2025.
“This groundbreaking collaboration marks a bold step in WonderLab’s journey beyond skincare. We now create holistic lifestyle solutions with STEP8IGHT Plus and its experience from STEP8IGHT as a lifestyle brand that is unafraid to explore beyond the ordinary. Our first collaboration taps into the power of fragrance as we believe it is a powerful tool that links us directly to our memories and emotions. Together, we have curated body mists that we hope could remind us of cherished moments and uplift moods, leading to better emotional well-being and true radiance from within,” said Hoe Kian Choon (KC Hoe), Non-Independent Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of CUCKOO Malaysia, the brand owner of WonderLab.
“We wanted to create more than just a fragrance; we wanted to create a feeling and tell a story. Working with WonderLab reminds us that there’s beauty in every moment waiting to be revealed. This led us to seek inspiration from the past, drawing beauty from timeless moments in art and history. Apart from its moisturising, refreshing and cooling effects, the WonderLab x STEP8IGHT Plus SCT Body Mist Collection is also our way of bottling moments and emotions to evoke a powerful memory, forgotten feeling or a beautiful story that was lost to time,” said Phei Yong, brand owner of STEP8IGHT and STEP8IGHT Plus.
A Body Mist Collection Inspired by Art, Drawing Out An Iconic Self-Expression
The WonderLab x STEP8IGHT Plus SCT Body Mist Collection introduces two distinct body mists, each inspired by an iconic work of art, transforming its visual and emotional essence into a wearable scent that helps one discover a feeling, a memory, or an identity.
SCT. 806 IMPRESSION SUNRISE 1872
This body mist is inspired by Claude Monet’s Impressionist masterpiece, Impression, Sunrise, a painting which depicts a rising sun piercing through the morning mist at a busy habour. It has a soft, fruity and vibrant scent that captures the gentle interplay of light and shadow. Its top notes of Passionfruit, Grapefruit, Pineapple, Tangerine, and Big Strawberry burst with the energy of a sun-drenched morning and morning fruits. This is followed by a soft, floral heart of Peony, Vanilla Orchid, Red Berries, Jasmine, and Lily-of-the-Valley, before settling into a grounding base of Musk, Woody Notes, and Oakmoss, mirroring the quiet, earthy silhouette beneath a rising sun. Fresh, gentle and grounded, this body mist reflects the impressionist spirit of fleeting beauty and fresh beginnings, and invites one to embrace the bright start of one’s own story.
SCT. 807 THE STARRY NIGHT 1889
A tribute to Vincent van Gogh’s iconic masterpiece, this fragrance offers a deeper, more introspective scent, echoing the loneliness of night, the poetry of dreams, and the mystery of a star-lit sky. It opens with a bright yet mysterious blend of Bergamot and Star Anise, reminiscent of a glimmer of stars in the darkness. The scent then swirls into a blend of floral and woody notes of Jasmine and Guaiac Wood, capturing the ethereal movement of Van Gogh’s celestial sky; before settling on the deep and grounded base notes of Leather, Tobacco, and Tonka Beans, echoing the quiet introspection that reveals one’s truest self. This blend is also called the scent of the soul — intimate, contemplative, and timelessly captivating.
Together, this collection embodies two sides of transformation: the fresh optimism of new starts and the quiet strength of inner reflection.
The Sc8NT Pop-Up: An Avant-Garde Experience
The collaboration between the brands also culminates in the SC8NT Pop-Up Event, an immersive, avant-garde experience at The Starhill KL, from 1 – 7 September 2025. Featuring bold, experimental design, the event serves as a creative physical manifestation of the WonderLab, STEP8IGHT and STEP8IGHT Plus’ shared message: to find beauty and be unafraid in self-expression.
Beyond the stunning aesthetic, the pop-up offers a full week of exclusive activities and prizes. Visitors can participate in a variety of lucky draws, either by completing visiting all booths for a chance to win exclusive prizes, including a soft serve, bagel and curated WonderDewi-C drink, or by purchasing an item for an entry into the grand lucky draw to win RM12,800. Throughout the week, the event will also feature attractive promotions, engaging creative workshops, a singing competition, and on 6 September 2025 at 7.30pm, a special mini concert.
WonderLab: Skin Reset | Be Iconic
At the pop-up event, WonderLab introduced its enhanced brand tagline: Skin Reset | Be Iconic. At WonderLab, being iconic is not about conformity, it’s about embracing one’s unique identity. This enhanced tagline reaffirms the brand’s mission to empower individuals to rediscover themselves from the inside out. Powered by a harmonious fusion of nature and advanced science, WonderLab delivers high-performance formulations rich in natural ingredients, designed to reset not only the skin but also confidence.
“Iconic isn’t defined. It’s revealed. At WonderLab, we believe everyone has the power to shape their own story, and we’re here to support that transformation. This includes one of WonderLab’s most celebrated products, the S.O.S Skin Savior toner essence, embodies this belief. As the brand’s No.1 best-selling product, it is a 2-in-1 formula designed for the demands of a hectic urban lifestyle — strengthening the skin barrier while delivering an instant glow. For many, it is the daily reset that empowers them to face life with renewed energy and confidence.
At the heart of this philosophy is transformation: when skin health is restored, confidence follows. Every ritual becomes a reset — a chance to rise stronger, embrace new beginnings, and celebrate individuality,” said Joycelyne Tan, Commercial Head of WonderLab.
