Myrissi, acquired by Givaudan in 2021, developed patented artificial intelligence technology that translates fragrances into colors, patterns and images. As a result, consumers benefit from being able to better experience a fragrance's sensorial and emotional qualities.
With technology, consumers can now get a taste of what it might be like to experience synesthesia. The Myrissi algorithm promises to be a valuable tool for selling fragrances online, since many consumers make blind purchases.
Maurizio Volpi, President Fragrance & Beauty, said "Myrissi represents a step change for the Industry. As e-commerce remains the privileged channel for customers, we must answer their need of an olfactive digital experience, something impossible to address until now. With Myrissi, we allow consumers to 'smell’ visuals and colors that elicit the same emotions as the perfumes they are facing."
