How the evening unfolds
Welcome & introduction
Meet your hosts and discover why smell plays such a fascinating role in everything we taste.
The sensory journey
Together we'll explore a Scent Personality Tasting Menu of four wine and scent pairings, combining Olfactive O perfumes with an intriguing collection of natural perfumery ingredients and aroma molecules. Guided by Olivia and Honey & Co's wine expert, you'll discover how scent can alter what you taste, and just how far a familiar smell can transport you.
The discoveries
As the evening unfolds, you'll begin to recognise scents you never knew you knew, uncover unexpected memories and find your own words to describe them. And perhaps most fascinating of all, discover just how differently the person sitting next to you experiences the very same thing.
