How do you capture the essence of a nation into a fragrance. How do you bottle a sense of atmosphere, ocean breeze or sensorial sensation? Maison 21G, pioneers in bespoke scent experiences, has created four miniature scents that are based on the city’s famous landmarks. Maison 21G collaborated with Singaporean illustrator and artist Jasper Tan to create a packaging that is a delightful blend of surrealism, whimsy, and a new perspective on Singapore. The colours chosen also pay tribute to the national banner.
According to founder and CEO of Maison 21G, Johanna Monange, the curation of these fragrances involved months of dedicated research culminating in a sensory experience that not only evokes the spirit of the island but the famed landmarks to the lush greenery within it. She expressed her excitement stating, “We are thrilled to introduce ‘Scents of Singapore‘ to fragrance enthusiasts and those who love this remarkable city— both locals and travelers alike.”
