Or sense of smell is one of the most powerful smells there are and designer Catherine Young chose fragrance to be the focus of her climate change products. 'The Ephemeral Marvels Perfume Store' is an acronym for the French word "TEMPS," meaning "time" and these fragrances are designed to simulate some of the world's best smells.
To raise awareness about the dire need to address climate change, Young's fragrances are designed after scents like Coffee, Honey, Wine, Ice and salty seaside Coasts, representing what we could lose forever if we're not careful. With a range of bottled fragrances in the TEMPS line, there's bound to be at least one scent that everyone would sorely miss if they could never smell it again.
