The London based restaurant Duck & Waffle launches one-ingredient cocktails, where they explore the level of flavour achievable from one ingredient.

The menu features 10 cocktails named after the ingredients they are based on, such as Olive, Tomato, Avocado and Red Pepper. Each part of the ingredient is used – from tomato skins and red pepper stalks to spent coffee grounds and walnut shells – to showcase its versatility and minimise waste.

‘We have amazing ingredients to work with, why bastardise them with other flavours? I want them to shine in all their glory,’ Rich Woods, head of cocktail development at Duck & Waffle. ‘I wanted to illustrate how much flavour can be extracted from a single ingredient and show the levels of complexity that can be obtained from multiple elements of a single source.’

Basically, what we see in the markets is that mixologists are increasingly adopting a Trash-to-table mindset, repurposing ingredients that are typically discarded to create innovative new serves.

Yours, Fran

Sorry guys, I was on holiday and moved in the meantime as well… lots of new things happening at the moment!

I found this Missha brand promoting their ‘meditanical’ toner. Quite interesting way of presenting and also the word play of medicinal and botanical!

Well, a nice eye-catching packaging can make the difference!

Enjoy your summer holidays 😉

Yours, Fran

I am sending you energy and love from Puglia, south of Italy! This is my first Yoga Retreat experience, and I have to say that I really enjoy!

We are 14 people from different countries, enjoying good food, nice weather and relaxation.

Yesterday we did a wine tasting at an old castle – what a great experience !

Our teacher for the 5 days.

I smell wonderful flowers (such as gardenia, jasmine, etc.), eat super nice food and relaxing by the pool is also not bad 😉

Yoga in nature! Or on the rooftop…

Thanks to Do.Be.See for organizing this!!!

Yours, Fran

Innovation – Ani Liu has used emerging technologies to create human-scented perfumes

Ani Liu, art, blog, capturing, design, experience, experiment, fragrance, Franziska Josteit, Health, In-Imitable, innovation, marketing, nature, perfume, perfumery, scent, smell, technology, trend

Ani Liu makes human-scented perfume by capturing volatile molecules from a person’s garment in a solvent for several weeks and then distilling the solution through traditional glassware.

Imagine bottling the scent of someone you love, eternalizing them forever, allowing you to dive into a fond memory of that person with just one whiff. Ani Liu has figured out how to make this sci-fi sounding fantasy a reality.

Liu is an artist who uses technology and science to develop multi-sensory experiences. Her work pulls from tools used in architecture, augmented reality, and synthetic biology—creating art that examines the social, cultural, and emotional effects of these emerging technologies.

Who did she bottled so far? She did around six people: Her husband, herself, her parents, a lab mate, and the chemist that was helping out. Using her parents … was very emotionally driven. She knows there will be a time when they pass away, so it was to create a time capsule of them before they passed.

It’s time for the weekend!!! Yours, Fran

“Hands on Veggies” places importance on precious, natural fermented ingredients that act as preserving agents while also caring for the skin…. Oils, fermented substances and extracts are part of the natural, vegetable components that make up their products.

I am visiting a friend of mine in San Francisco at the moment and have to tell you about the gorgeous vegetation over here!

Wherever you pass by, you notice never-seen trees/ plants/ cactus/ flowers.

Crazy trees with red fluff or hanging flowers… just wonderful to see! So i googled quickly what variety the city really offers:

You can do great hikes too, where you can smell a combination of eucalyptus and laurier trees – a true scentsation 😎

This was us yesterday:

Clairy, a natural air purifier powered by nature and technology that eliminates indoor pollution and analyses it. It has no filters, all natural, so no replacing needed.

Clairy is a made-in-Italy design flowerpot with a fan that directs the air from inside your home to the roots of the plant to be detoxified. Indoor air quality, temperature and humidity  sensors continually test the quality of your air. Normal plants have no airflow in the roots, that’s what makes the difference.

From there, the build-in wifi module sends real-time updates to your smartphone.

Plus it looks quite appealing!

Growing fresh air sounds like a promising concept, and a great new years resolution. You can preorder on Indiegogo (starting from 179$).

Good start into the year! Yours, Fran

Baxter of California Soap bars have a coloured line that runs through them implying the addition of scent – just like what you get in toothpaste stripes.

Inflatable plastic dome in London

London based design studio Loop.pH has created an inflatable plastic dome by London’s River Thames that was pumped full of scented vapour to create a gathering space intended to replicate the atmosphere of a traditional bathhouse.

Named the Horticultural Spa & Apothecary Experience, the installation consisted of an inflatable PVC membrane. Pot plants were set into the pockets of a latticed birch plywood arch that formed an entrance to the structure.

A slit in the plastic skin allowed visitors to slip into the misty interior, where scented vapour produced by adding essential oils and plant extracts was pumped into the bubble-like dome.

The aromatic mists were developed with medicinal herbalists who advised on the properties of each plant and will be dispersed through a nebuliser fog machine more typically used in agricultural warehouses.

The Daily Fog Menu included a refreshing grapefruit, lemon balm and peppermint scent that will be dispensed in the early part of the day, a more invigorating bergamot, juniper berry and parsley concoction for mid afternoon, and a soothing bedtime fragrance comprising chamomile, lavender and basil oil in the evenings.

The event took place in June in London. Yours, Fran
