Rather than presenting fragrance as a conventional product display, the project used a museum setting to make scent part of a broader cultural experience.

In its award announcement, the house recalled Kurkdjian’s invitation to “look at the world through your nose.” That line captures the premise of an exhibition built around a medium visitors cannot see, but can experience directly.
