The Full Story

Mayonnaise as a perfumery concept captures the unexpected complexity of an emulsion: the sulfurous richness of egg yolk, the bland smoothness of vegetable oil, the sharp bite of vinegar, and the pungent warmth of mustard. Used in avant-garde and conceptual perfumery to explore the boundaries of what fragrance can represent.
