How to Make Sense of Scents.
Illustration inspired by The New Yorker Magazine article titled “How to Make Sense of Scents”. “On Fragrantica’s page for Violette, a violet soliflore (the industry term for a perfume that attempts to replicate the scent of a single flower) from the French house Molinard, you will find little consensus and lots of enthusiasm: “reminds me of sweet tarts from my childhood”; “This is a dance of fairies, in the deep of a forest where all is about light and shadows”; “a twilight summer sky, a glaring garland of bare incandescent bulbs..”.
I post process snapshots, before&after images and more behind the scenes content on my Instagram. Feel free to check it out!
