Task 1: Shape of scent

In groups of five, we were given a scent in a plastic seal bag to discuss and brainstorm a list of words that can describe this scent. My group was given a perfume that was feminine, intimate and gentle at first and also quite teasing and mysterious, but the more we smelt it, the vaguer it got. So we decided to experience the scent without the plastic bag, and it was surprisingly strong and embracing. 

The designs here are sculptures representing how the smell visually looks like,

Suddenly someone in the group announced it "smelt like his mother", and I really agreed. The scent was indeed very motherly, it was like an embrace that was strong, but at the same time gentle and soft.

The final design of my perfume vessel followed the principles of being Motherly, Gentle and nurturing.

The harder squared off  outer edge shows the strength and protection of a mother's love that sheilds and nurtures and embraces a softer and compassionate inside, which is depicted with a rounded off edge.
