Explore the Art of Scent: Sephora Sensorium

If you live in NYC and happen to be a fragrance monger, then you will definitely be intrigued by an unusual sensory experience which has temporarily taken residence in the Meatpacking District — Sephora presents  "Sensorium: Lucid Dreams from the Sensory World." With fragrances provided by Firmenich, one of the world's most famous perfume houses, the pop-up location is made up of six fragrance encounters that explore the mind's stimulus reaction to scent. The exhibit is specifically designed to delve deeper into the profound effects that scent has on our mood and memory, as well as to introduce us to one-of-a-kind fragrances that have been engineered exclusively for this experience. Just imagine a day with lovely smells and cognitive stimulation.

Sensorium opened Oct. 7 and is running until Nov. 27. You can visit Sephora's event sitehere for more information regarding times and the location of the event.
