The Scent LibraryFree
The Gallery floor — thirty fragrance-note stations

The Gallery

The center of our space features thirty raw perfumery notes delivered through bespoke touch-activated misters.

Journey through five flights – from bright citrus to woods and resins – to experience the base materials behind your favorite fragrances and learn about their history and role in perfumery.

Your Scent ProfileFree
Portrait station — your personalized scent profile becomes a Polaroid

Scent Portraits

Once you've rated each of the thirty fragrance notes, we'll translate your scent profile into a visual portrait. Combining professional portrait photography with the colors and textures of your chosen notes, you'll receive a physical Polaroid-style print to keep, alongside a digital version sent to your phone.

Your digital portrait also includes a curated selection of products tailored perfectly to your taste.
