Morbid Fairy Tale

My research is based on two accords, Aldehyde (imagine formaldehyde, cold and acidic) and Gourmand (sickly sweet, warm and animally), selected from the commonly used basic accords in fine fragrance creation, which possess two very opposite characteristics, yet are both considered to be ‘extreme’ and ‘hallucinogenic’.

Based on the above two accords and my textile research, Morbid Fairy Tale is a slightly eerie, yet romantic textile collection for upholstery use and wallpaper in an acidic pastel palette. The collection is accompanied by a room fragrance, and to be presented with a sound piece and an assortment of odd sweets to engage the five senses.
