I see more and more USB stick aroma diffusers popping up at the moment!

Basically for your laptop at work, for the car during a ride, at home etc.

You need an uplift at work? Take the My Mood “Feel Uplifted” USB stick and let the aroma get to your brain quickly.

If you rather need to focus, put the “Focused” USB stick in your laptop.

Aroma2go is another company playing the same game. It’s surely a new on-the-go trend with fragrances.

Do you guys also see those products on the shelfs? Yours, Fran

Remember i wrote about scented temporary tattoos from Tattly? This one is similar.

Innovative cosmetics company Amkiri Ltd is delighted to announce the launch of the world’s first ever ‘visual fragrance™’ technology.

The Amkiri team has developed and successfully patented a technology comprised of scented ‘ink’, which is applied to the skin via specifically developed applicators, allowing the user to apply and create body art infused with fragrance.

The innovative and patented technology of Amkiri allows fragrance to be carried in liquid ‘ink’ and worn visually on the skin, while ensuring the scent remains true to itself and lasts for up to 12 hours.

I wish you a lovely rest of the week!!! Yours, Fran

In a secret room hidden in the ever-sophisticated Berkeley hotel in London, there exists an immersive cocktailing experience like no other on the planet…

It’s called “Out of the Blue”, and it’s something like a cross between a very fancy cocktail bar and a very advanced virtual reality project. Rest assured, it’s the first of its kind—and a substantial amount of booze is involved.

To participate, you’ll you’ll visit the website and make a reservation. The room only accommodates four people per hour, so you can imagine it’s a pretty hot ticket…

The room is a 360-degree projection environment, meaning you’ll be surrounded on all sides by screens capable of transporting you to some very nice places. Thankfully, they’ve specifically designed film, combined with molecular scents, to match a totally bespoke set of four taster-sized cocktails.

The whole experience is basically cocktail-induced synesthesia.

Enjoy your sunday! Yours, Fran

Business opportunities for sleep are wide and far: meet the Snoozeliner, a night bus equipped with designer beds and the latest technology, including olfactory relaxation, to promote optimal rest.

Tired of the hustle and bustle of public transport, which is hardly conducive to catching up on lost hours of sleep? An architectural firm based close to London, has created a vehicle for people leaving the capital after a night of partying that enables them to rest during their journey home: the Snoozeliner is equipped with designer beds and the latest technology to promote optimal rest.

Sound insulation and memory foam mattresses

The result of a collaboration between architectural firm Andersson-Wood and high-tech mattress brand Simba, the Snoozeliner features 14 futuristic looking capsules that can accommodate sleep-deprived travellers. It’s impossible to miss your stop: stewards come to wake travellers when they have reached their destination.

The night bus offers dreamy sleeping conditions: in addition to a memory foam mattress, the capsules are equipped with soundproofing insulation, opaque blinds and a soft light in amber, the most relaxing hue.

Olfactory relaxation

Travellers can even choose from a selection of room scents according to their personal needs that have been selected by aromatherapy specialists: want a heavy restorative sleep, or perhaps you are looking to dispel the first signs of a hangover? In development for the past four months, the Snoozeliner is expected to reach eight roads in the UK, including those leading to London, Leeds, Manchester and Birmingham, from Autumn 2018 onwards.

Woman can smell Parkinson’s disease

A British woman who can smell Parkinson’s disease has helped scientists discover 10 molecules linked to the condition which could lead to the first diagnostic test.

Joy Milne, conducting an experiment by sniffing a t-shirt to see if it’s owner has Parkinson’s disease.

It all began when Mrs Milne claimed she detected a change in the odour of her husband six years before he was diagnosed with the condition.

When researchers conducted tests with Mrs Milne they found that she was indeed able to distinguish people living with Parkinson’s from people without the condition by smelling skin swabs taken from both groups.

In one case, Mrs Milne identified an individual who had Parkinson’s, but at the time had not been diagnosed yet with the condition, because the person had no symptoms.

Now scientists have identified the 10 molecules which appear in high concentration of the skin swabs from Parkinson’s patients.

Our future looks much brighter! Happy holidays for you! Yours, Fran

The partnership between By Kilian fragrances and Fleur Du Mal lingerie gets us to a glamorous level with their new line of scented lingerie. Respective brand founders Kilian Hennessy and Jennifer Zuccarini have joined forces ahead of the holiday season to create a range of undergarments, robes, night sets, and even lace cuffs ($68 to $595), all infused with one of Kilian’s most-loved fragrances.

“There’s something intriguing and intimate about fragrance and lingerie that I’ve always wanted to explore,” Zuccarini says. “With this collection, we’ve been able to add an element of sensuality that enhances the experience of intimacy.”

So, what makes these pieces different from simply misting your panties with your favorite fragrance?  The lace of each item is actually infused with fragrance enclosed in gel micro-capsules, which are designed to last anywhere from 4 to 5 washes.

The scent in question? Kilian’s Love, Don’t Be Shy ($260; net-a-porter.com), which is a sweet, sensual mix of honeysuckle, caramelized sugar, jasmine, bergamot, and vanilla that plays well with the chemistry of your skin.

I wish you a lovely rest of the week! Yours, Fran

Eight years after it introduced Singapore to the possibilities of progressive cuisine and modernist cocktails, Tippling Club remains ahead of the curve.

For its latest drinks list, chef-owner Ryan Clift and head bartender Joe Schofield teamed up with perfume house International Flavors and Fragrances (IFF) to kick start the design process. Instead of relying on an expressed fruit peel to lay a final aromatic touch to an already designed cocktail, the duo wanted to begin with a scent – and quite literally lead customers by the nose.

Makes me hungry for more funky home creations 😉

Weather-changing perfume!

There is now a perfume, the appearance of which changes with every change of weather: “Cloud Collection” is the name of this fascinating scent creation of Zarkoperfume from Denmark.

Labelfounder Zarko Ahlmann Pavlov explains how the weather perfume works: “The molecules contained in the water react to the atmospheric pressure of the earth’s atmosphere, which makes it clear (good weather), sometimes cloudy (on rainy days) depending on the weather The surface tension of water is broken, so the water floats over the oil, and not, as usual, the other way round. “

 

 

“Cloud” also gives a fine smell! Namely sanddorn, jasmine, peach and dark woods. Available from 1 September 2017, 100 ml EDP, at 239 Euro

Super Marketing! Have a good week, yours Fran

Switzerland-based perfumer Andy Tauer has launched three room perfumes, which can also perfume your skin and fabrics.

Tauer says, “The room fragrances are rich in naturals, and are micro encapsulated in a carrier, making them last. And because they are water based: they are safe to use, too.”

He adds “the sprayer is simply amazing. This is actually pretty hightech. It even sprays upside down!”
