Symrise sent 13 perfumers of different nationalities to visit the 11 countries which are home to its creative centres, in order to capture the unique scents and influences of these key areas of the world.

From Oaxaca and the Amazon to Holzminden, Shanghai to Singapore, Seville to Paris, Madurai to Dubai, Durham to Tokyo, these Symrise perfumers were joined by journalists from Nez, the Olfactory Magazine and photographers from the collective Tendance Floue to engage with the aromas of the world – a voyage of discovery, part creative odyssey and part anthropological expedition.
