EXPERIMENTAL SCENT SUMMIT

"[The] summit was part of [the IAO’s] mission to build mutual support and a sense of community for this broad ranging group of creatives who may work at the margins of the fragrance industry, deep within it, or completely outside of it.”
– Women’s Wear Daily, 2017

The Institute for Art and Olfaction teams up again with artist Klara Ravat for the third annual Experimental Scent Summit.
