Take two high school buddies who became engineers, one graduated in the Ponts & Chaussées and Sciences Po and the other in X-Telecom, philosophy and management. You train them the hard way, in engineering, strategy consulting or at the DGCCRF (General Directorate for Competition Policy, Consumer Affairs and Fraud Control), and you also let them develop a very natural inclination for oenology, perfume and technology. Then, just let them give free rein to their imagination. And off they go!

In 2004, Scentys introduces a flat screen with a fragrance diffuser in tune with the pictures displayed on the screen. Bingo! Perfume brands love it, the wine and spirits industry follows suit. In 2006, the screen is sidelined giving way to the Scentys Box a professional modular diffuser, adaptable to POS advertising, outlets and other premises, which can diffuse up to four fragrances, with a fan blowing on a cartridges filled with polymer beads impregnated with concentrated perfume. It’s clean, simple, and easy to use. Clément Jeanjean and David Suissa further improve their system with a wireless monitoring device, via a downloadable application from the Internet. Ideal for adding fragrant scents to events. In 2010, the project is miniaturized, with Scentys 1, an almost disposable little box concealed in a POS Material. And with always, this guarantee of a perfect restitution of the fragrance or aroma. In 2011, Scentys Pocket a nomadic diffuser, gives hotels, shops, spas and public places the possibility to diffuse a fragrance with a mini box that runs on batteries or mains, ideal for a space of 20m², and truly very efficient.

Be it in a pocket size or a standard size, the system works splendidly, and Antoine Lie, a perfume creator (Takasago) and an olfactory consultant to this project has added little notes of its own, creating an exclusive collection of six fragrances, created in single copies (when a customer chooses one of the fragrances or aromas, it is then reserved for him, withdrawn from the offer, and immediately replaced by a different composition).

"With the diffuser, the aim is not to have a too aggressive or too discriminating fragrance, but on the contrary to provide a quality olfactory signature," explained Antoine Lie who bears in mind a very qualitative approach when selecting his raw materials: "it takes very little... there is no price constraint" His favourite raw materials are here, worked subtly, vetiver, incense, leather, iris, narcissus and rose, genuine compositions giving the place of honour to these various raw materials. You want them for your home. Just for your home.
