The Alliance Française de Singapour is proud to present Essences Insensées (Perfumes and Senses). Following the success encountered during the 4th edition of Parcours Saint-Germain-des-Prés in Paris in June 2006, Essences Insensées is an interactive exhibition melting visual delight and troubling olfactory experiences. Presented for the very first time outside France, this exhibition offers an exciting journey for your senses...
13 international artists have been invited to create a perfume in collaboration with the fragrance house Quest International, a professional laboratory which created perfumes as prestigious as "Dior J’adore" for Christian Dior and "Angel" for Thierry Mugler.
The artists have also been invited to create a perfume bottle or a sculpture illustrating the fragrances. For the production of these new works of art, several national workshops such as the National Manufacture of Sèvres, the Bernardaud Porcelain Foundation in Limoges, Ceramiche Antonietta Mazzotti in Faenza and prestigious companies specialised in glass and crystal, Baccarat and Lalique, have collaborated with the artists.
Each work of art presented will be associated with a testing fragrance allowing you to discover all these surprising scents, especially created for this amazing exhibition.
