Teams receive a detailed consumer profile and first learn the fundamentals of perfumery. They work with top, middle, and base notes to create a harmonious and distinctive fragrance.
Once their scent is perfected, a second challenge awaits: designing a compelling marketing campaign. How will they position their creation? What emotions and associations do they want to evoke? How will they effectively captivate their target audience?
After finalising their fragrances, each team presents their exclusive essence to a judging panel through a creative and persuasive marketing pitch. Using props, visuals, and polished storytelling, they defend their brand universe.
The team that best understands and appeals to its target audience — through both fragrance and strategy — wins the title of the day’s best perfumers.
As a special bonus, every participant can take home their own personalised fragrance, a unique and lasting memento of this creative experience.
