Smell is the most visceral and evocative of our senses, embedding the human experience in memories, emotions and reactions.

I am so excited to be part of the After Hours: Perfumed event at The Courtauld. During the evening we are using fragrance to immerse you in the extensive Courtauld collection, breathing new life into history, art and the stories they convey.

I have created a Perfume Programme containing five scented perfume blotters to accompany your self-guided olfactory journey around the gallery. A fragrance has been selected for each floor and two of the temporary exhibitions, to represent the characteristics of each artistic era so that you may be inspired or provoked through the medium of scent!
