VOYAGE DANS LE TEMPS
As the sense of smell is closely connected, through the limbic system, to one's own memories and emotions, it is subjective and therefore individual. We can never really know the exact scent that another experiences or how if differs from our own. This series is dedicated to the perception of scent.

LISTENING TO SCENT
In the Japanese incense ceremony called Kodo ‘the way of scent’, the term ‘smell’ is not used, instead one ’listens’ to a scent.
Each scent in this series comes with a poem composed by Dayni Staddon.

"If Å Journal itself was to be translated into an unambiguous essence it would be rather herbal, earthy, woody, yet warm with hints of spicy notes. It would aim to bring a sense of tranquility and contemplation...”
