Once a year, six scents are released with the collaborative efforts of six talented artists and six [expert perfumers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artisanal-perfumery). The proceeds from the sale of the deliciously-scented creation goes to a different deserving charity. The overall goal of these perfumes are to "trigger momentum around each cause through creativity with a conscience."

With [fragrance names](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perfect-nonsense) like Collage, Ende/Anfang, Nicoll 77, Smell, Whiskey Caramelise and Solar Donkey Power, these six scents are bound to raise funds for charity even if only because of pure curiousity.
