Polaris Olfactive

Exhibitor drop: Early Modern, SC

Exhibitor drop: Paraphrase, CA

Paraphrase is an artisanal perfume house created by the perfumer and founder, Josh Smith, hailing out of Libertine, CA.

The brand vows beautifully to the ethos of slow-perfumery, and that art and creativity is not a mere commodity but actually intertwined in our DNA.

And in a fast-paced world where everything has to be fast, we quote Josh:
"Libertine is everything I needed to hear and to remind myself of"

Lets welcome Josh and the Paraphrase team to Stockholm!:)

Exhibitor drop: Puppet Parfum, US

Playfullness, introspection and kindness.

The American perfume house Puppet, is a down-to earth magnet that is filled with joy, and artistic expression.

Dali, the perfumer and founder, is charismatic and has a way of of doing things that just comes up as natural.
I guess california has its way to charm aswell :)

Lets welcome the puppet team to Stockholm!

Can we extract memories from childhood, travels, relationships and fragments of time back into olfaction?

Is it possible to preserve cultural heritage through perfumery?

Join us at Polaris this winter, to a beautiful workshop with Maya Njie in Stockholm, that is a one of a kind sensoriak experience.

"Between what we see and what we smell is a landscape where memories, colours, textures, and emotions become fragrance"

-Maya Njie

Exhibitor drop: Fischersund, Iceland

Founded by the Birgisdóttir family in Reykjavík, Fischersund is a family-run perfumery and art collective founded by siblings, including Jón "Jónsi" Pór Birgisson of Sigur Rós.

Inspired by memory and Iceland's dramatic landscapes, each handcrafted fragrance blends sustainable materials with art, music, and storytelling.

More than perfume, Fischersund creates immersive sensory experiences beyond imagination.

Lets welcome Fischersund to Stockholm!

Exhibitor drop: ART BRÜT from Germany

Sometimes emotions and experiences can work as the outer layer of a perfume, whether its design or bottle.
But ART BRÜT from germany incorporates the whole spectrum in their olfactive art.

The brand is very personal about the ethos and how it transcribes back into the perfumes, and having a bottle filled with personal and emotional experiences is something that is both touching and creative when done right.

Lets give a warm welcome to ART BRÜT and their team!

Exhibitor drop: EDIT(h), from Japan

Hailing out of Japan, the founder, Kentaro Kuzuwa, intertwines the legacy of vermilion inkpad maker Nikko Jirushi, and artistic collaborations. With a background as a music supervisor in various genres, the result are perfumes that highlight japanese identity and olfactory experiences beyond borders and norms.

Super nice to Have Kentaro and EDIT(h) in Stockholm this winter!

Exhibitor drop: Jorum Studio, Scottland

Founded in Edinburgh, this independent perfume house was conceived by Euan McCall and designer Chloe Mullen.

This perfume house is one of those concepts where design, scent, and experience is masterfully intertwined.

A classic example of "Details matter" in a world filled with repetitive patterns, and mass production.

Lets welcome the Jorum Studio team with open arms for the Polaris Olfactive Week this winter.

Why do some fragrances feel blue, warm, bright or soft?

And can texture be transcribed into scent?

Fredrik Dalman, who was the head perfumer of late Mona Di Orio, will be hosting a sensorial workshop with his independent studio "Tuff Tuff Studio", at Polaris Olfactive Week this winter.

This is not a regular workshop.

It's an immersive experience, that explores the fascinating relationship between scent, colour, texture, and perception.

Blending neuroscience with perfumery, participants discover how the brain instinctively translates fragrance into visual and emotional experiences.

We're super honored to have a Fredrik Dalman, and lets give him a warm welcome!

Welcome to Design: Shape as scent

This Sunday we have the honor to invite our friend Kentaro Yamada, a renowned artist and founder of the perfume brand Neandertal.
