Olfactory Series 1 marks the brand’s first premium fragrance range with Coty, combining botanical and technological expertise to develop six minimalist formulas that echo the brand’s design philosophy.

The activation features a coffee and matcha cart, with a guided olfactory journey, enabling visitors to discover the collection through sensory prompts, storytelling and personalised scent recommendations.

A dedicated Jil Sander booklet is also available, providing visual cues to help visitors find their ideal scent.

The activation also offers a selection of exclusive minis, discovery sizes and gifting options.
