An olfactive response to Daisies (1966), Vera Chytilová's anarchic masterpiece of Czech New Wave cinema. This fragrance translates a specific moment, where two young women dismantle social norms through playful destruction and aesthetic rebellion. Part of FOLIE's Le Cinéma Olfactif—scent as duration, extending moments that would otherwise pass unnoticed.

MATERIALS: green apple, peach, watermelon, yuzu, hazelnut, spun sugar, jasmine sambac, rose, chocolate, cinnamon, musk, vanilla, cedar, opoponax, leather, patchouli.


»Sugar and decay. Cake fights, spilled cocktails and forbidden fruits. The world is spoiled—so the Maries spoil it faster, laughing.«

Series Statement

Minutes become moments. Frames become fragrance.

Le Cinéma Olfactif is not smell-o-vision. It is attention made aromatic. The scent tells you what to feel, what you might have missed.

Evocative, not illustrative. Fear rather than smoke. Absence rather than presence.

Not the explosion. Not the kiss.

Something quieter. Something true.

Launched in Berlin, 2014. Still going.
