Mirum Helsinki, a global creative agency, recently debuted its new brand 'Creative Essence' in a serene, [wilderness-themed campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-perfumery) to attract more talent in an unconventional way.

The campaign features an intriguing new aroma that has an unusual ingredient -- sweat. This symbolizes the creative essence necessary to create beautiful and elaborate advertisements, and each employee from the agency has donated a drop of their sweat "in hopes of 'seducing' brand new colleagues."

To obtain some of the [limited-edition perfume](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfumer-extraordinaire), Mirum Helsinki wants applicants to submit their resumes and portfolios onto the campaign website. If the company finds you to be a potential fit for Mirum Helsinki, they will send you one sample of the [sweat infused Creative Essence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/free-yourself) samples as an official invitation to meet with a representative from the company.
