Fragrances play an important role in everyday life, and the Sephora Sensorium is a popup museum that acknowledges this idea.
The full title of the exhibition is 'Sensorium - Lurid Dreams from the Sensory World,' and is located in New York's Meatpacking District to explore and experience.
Sephora Sensorium features interactive installations. Agency Neverstop did the production and creative build of the Sensorium, while D4D supplied the content and creative direction for two of the six rooms of the Sensorium experience. These installations aim to provide a sensory treat to visitors.
In the section titles First Scent, the visitor gets a glimpse of the perfumer's first memory of the fragrance, be it visiting a beach or cutting grass, and this first memory comes to life for the visitor with sound, images and scents.
Another section called Lucid Dreams is more personal, the images and sounds experienced by the visitors transform with their own personal sniff of the fragrance. The technology behind these installations are glowing sniff-registering flowers, which are activated by the sound of the visitor's sniffing.
Needless to say, Sephora Sensorium is an experience worth checking out. This popup museum is open to public until November 27th, 2011.
