[L'Oréal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loreal-mood-mirror) and [Emotiv](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/active-noisecancelling-earphones) partnered up to create a [neuro device that formulates personalized fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/six7). The partnership unveiled a multi-sensor EEG-based headset that uses neuroscience to provide precise and customized fragrance advice.

These headsets will be available in-store. It can be difficult to find the right fragrance. The headsets use emotions to determine the best scent for each customer. While consumers experience proprietary scent families in-store, the headset accurately senses and monitors the wearer's behavior.

Tan Le, CEO of Emotiv, explains: "We’re simplifying the decision-making process by connecting emotion and scent through technology – in a way no one has done before. Rooted in science and powerful insights, this technological breakthrough will help consumers decode what fragrances are best suited to their needs."
