A Fragrance for all Petrol Heads

Posted on September 4, 2021 by Editor

With the launch of its new electric car, Ford has created a fragrance which smells like gasoline. 70% of electric car buyers said they would miss the smell of gas when switching to a plug-in vehicle.

The smell of gasoline ranks as a more popular scent than wine and cheese and is identical to the aroma of used books.

Called Mach-Eau, this fragrance is designed to please the nose of any wearer. A high-end fragrance that combines smokey, rubber and metallic accords. Notes include lavender, geranium, sandalwood and blue ginger.

Do Beer Drinkers Care What They Smell Like?

Posted on August 18, 2021August 19, 2021 by Editor

Victoria Bitter is a full flavoured beer produced by Carlton & United Breweries, a subsidiary of Asahi, in Melbourne Victoria. It is one of the best-selling beers in Australia.

To celebrate the “satisfying moment of knock-off” VB has released a new hops-scented fragrance. Named Thirst, this fragrance is made from perfume oil combined with an extract from the same hops used to brew VB. This scent is also available in longneck bottles.

The new scent opens with a refreshing combination of bitter citrus and icy aromas, before finishing with the bold freshness and energy of sweet hoppy accents.

A perfume designed for the Australian beer lover, this fragrance will certainly make up for that spilt beer smell from the local pub.

Sound, Scent & Motion come to Design

Posted on July 19, 2021 by Editor

Metronome, billed as an experiential meditation tool, has finally launched after 10 years in development.

A collaborative work, the piece has been created by Alter-Projects‘ Anne-Laure Pingreoun; Servaire&Co‘s Sebastien Servaire, Candido De Barro and Gregory Sidoine; with sound and tech from 6Sides, K-array Audio Solutions, 2BHeard, Moodsonic and SetWorks.

Inside the fragrance contained opens with an earthy scent, boasting notes of burnt wood, musk, grass and ginger. Servaire&Co worked with top perfumers to choose each fragrance for its ability to anchor the visitor’s primal parts of the brain into making fast, distinct emotional connections. The diffuser scent configuration changes subtly each time the pendulum swings, thanks to magnets in a painstakingly accurate push-pull configuration which causes time to almost stand still for the viewer.

A motion and scent profile enables “a new semantic and poetic system,” says Servaire

Metronome is on display at London Design Biennale before ‘swinging’ across to Paris Design Week.
