The Science of Scenting…

Elevate the experience

Smell, being our most powerful and influential sense, is directly linked to emotions which can stimulate different moods and create memorable experiences. Personal experiences are crucial in increasing patron retention rates. It is imperative to entice consumers into cinemas and live theatre productions while competing with the rapidly growing online streaming services.

STUDY BY PROF. JOSE MC VERISSIMO

A study in Portugal by Prof. Jose M C Verissimo showed that patrons were positively influenced by scent when evaluating the quality of a production, spending on concession products and intention to return to a theatre. Through this study it was noteworthy that audiences in scented cinemas & theatres considered prices to be significantly cheaper than those in unscented environments. Overall Prof Verissimo found that scent can create positive and memorable associations with a theatre environment or the quality of a production.

Why Essential Oils?

Pure essential oil based fragrances are produced from pure plant extracts to enhance psychological and physical well-being. Unlike synthetic based fragrances, our oils are far more effective at influencing the subconscious and emotional decision making. Our fragrances do not contain proteins, polypeptides or amino acids meaning our essential oil fragrances are non-allergenic.
