The Brand
Olfactive Studio is an encounter between contemporary artistic photography and perfumery; between the eye and the nose.
Perfumers team up with photographers to draw inspiration from their oeuvres. They sense the images to capture their essence. «Perfumer’s proofs», born out of the spontaneous and free emotions of perfume creators who have carte blanche when it comes to photography, prove to be genuine unisex olfactory concepts with very beautiful raw materials in Eau de parfum versions (12 to 18%) or Extraits de Parfum (20%).
Elegant and unconventional modernity emanates from this wonderful alchemy. Olfactive Studio has designed an exceptional olfactory world with a powerful and distinctive personality; a world of intuitions and emotions.
