Unveiling the Essence: A Journey into Perfumery Formulas
On view: May 3 – June 13, 2025
The Institute for Art and Olfaction is honored to welcome an exhibition exploring the perfume formula. Co-curated by professor Urs Stäheli and IAO founder Saskia Wilson-Brown, this exhibition aims to showcase perfume formulas as cultural and aesthetic artifacts, presenting them in their entirety—from initial drafts to final compositions—to highlight the complex artistry inherent in these meticulously crafted lists of ingredients, and their various organizational structures.
