'Re-imagining Sleep': Fragrance by Olivia Giacobetti for Hastens

Perfumer Olivia Giacobetti has been asked to invent a new room fragrance to lull our olfactory senses into delirious snooze mode. After composing her first fragrance - Petit Guerlain - at just 23 years old Giacobetti established her own house Iskia, creating dreamy, translucent perfumes for the likes of Diptyque, L'Artisan Parfumeur, Hermès, Frédéric Malle. 'I look for simplicity, clarity and precision,' Olivia will tell you. 'I love the poetry that encompasses the world of scent. The subtlety and depth of language, the instinctive, animal link to our emotions.'
