To create his first olfactive sculpture, Hubert Le Gall imagined “The Heart of Dionysus”, a “misleadingly broken” amphora in patinated bronze. This unique object evokes the drunkenness, madness and ecstasy of Dionysus, the God of vines and of excess, the father of Greek theatre. This work called for the powerful musky notes of myrtle and laurel, in a fragrance created by Jean-Christophe Hérault.

Diane Thalheimer, a well-known perfumer, set herself apart in the early 2000s by inventing her new profession: Olfactive Profiler. Looking for something that made sense, she started to work on understanding and decoding the vision of a brand or of a personality and translating those traits into original scents. Whilst collaborating with many leading companies, in 2021, Diane launched Profile By, a personal project bringing together artists and perfumers on a special collaboration about olfactive sculptures. The first collection comprises 6 pieces: perfume becomes the extension of an artwork. Or is it the artwork that becomes a visual and olfactory experience?
