Visualising our sense of smell as a sculptural form was a challenge brought to FutureDeluxe by AKQA as part of the Atelier Cologne rebrand.
We looked at how we could visualise each fragrance note of which there were 2-3 in each scent, to build up a modular system that could be implemented as majestic living sculptures to represent the broad range of Atelier Cologne products.
From this we created 2 hero narrative films for two of the flagship perfumes (Encense Celeste and Eclat de Tubereuse), 3 edits of 6 more scents – Product key visuals for use in OOH, marketing and in-store fit outs.
