The Scent of Departure is a perfume collection that captures the scent of a city in a bottle. They are sold at airport retail shops for the traveller who wants to remember the “crisp, refreshing and green scent” of Munich, the “gourmand notes of vanilla, liquorice, chocolate and coffee” of Vienna, or the “rose Turkish delight” of Istanbul. There are 5 perfumes in total, Frankfurt and Budapest being the other two, and more on the way.

The line is created by Gerald Ghislain and Magali Senequier. Gerald Ghislain is a fragrance creator behind the luxury brand Histoires de Parfums. Magali Senequier is the artistic director behind both lines.

Cool idea.
