The Results

The Results

We created an NYC pop-up that elevated the Replica Fragrance Line in a charming Parisian cafe. The experience invited guests to indulge in rich coffee aromas alongside the brand’s perfume inspired by the Madeleine cookie. Our  scent-memory sketch activity provided a sensory journey that intricately connected the fragrances to guests’ own personal and unforgettable memories. The results? A standout launch that boosted brand awareness, sales, and drew a 6 AM line.
