D.S.&Durga VR & ASMR Presentation.

Client

D.S. & DURGA was founded by an architect and a musician. As pioneers in DIY Brooklyn, we started from scratch and did it our way (more Sid than Sinatra) and creates authentic studies of real world objects, plants, and places. We weave them into narratives that transport you to far off places, material and imaginary.
All that they love in music, art, nature, and design told aromatically. Our scents are fragments of half-remembered myths and imaginary landscapes that invite exploration. They are an invisible soundtrack that you can carry on your body throughout the day.

Challenge

To develop and implement support for the “Perfume is armchair travel” concept for the presentation of the popular American niche brand D.S. & Durga, created by musician D.S (David Seth Moltz) and his wife.

Solution

The use of modern technology of mobile virtual reality on the presentation site, the integration of physical and digital objects, real D.S. & Durga scents and digital virtual scenes. One of the key features of our concept is the integration of the world-known ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) trend. It`s a relaxing, often sedative sensation that begins on the scalp and moves down the body. Also known as «brain massage,» it is usually triggered by placid sights and sounds such as whispers or crackles, however in this project our team implemented smells because each fragrance was individually created for each of the three scenes, so the spectator could fully immerse and get as close to real sense of presence as possible.

The development of full-size 3D scenes based on the client’s brand book and references, creating animations, writing and mixing soundtracks, rendering scenes for Vive Focus virtual reality glasses.

As a result, we have developed a solution that meets the basic requirements of the customer:

  • Innovative and technological solutions
  • Technological + Innovative + Entertaining format
  • Interaction and deep connection with physical objects (armchair, fragrances, music)
  • Close connection with the values ​​and concept of the brand ‘Perfume is armchair travel.

Result

The closed presentation of D.S. & Durga, which took place on November 16, 2019 in the Tsvetnoy shopping center, was crowded, noisy, loud and sparkling: visitors were literally drawn into the world of D.S. & Durga’s crazy and insane perfumes. The twilight, the bright flashes of light, the loud music, the bright cocktails and popcorn with lavender and rosemary, the beer brownies — almost all senses were under the attack : sight, hearing, taste … And of course, the sense of smell as the guests were experiencing each fragrance live.

At the presentation, we organized a complete immersion in the world of D.S. & Durga using virtual reality glasses that conveyed music and virtual scenes associated with scents that were transmitted to the audience according to each scene.
