The clock is ticking down to Sniffapalooza's double fragrance extravaganza: a collaboration with a fragrance fair in Germany and the NYC based Spring Fling.
Dusseldorf
Team Karen have teamed up with Annekathrin Koch, a PR professional who works in the lifestyle, beauty and fragrance industries, for Sniffapalooza's Dusseldorf event. The project will include interactive seminars and workshops featuring iconic brands such as
Serge Lutens,
Yves Saint Laurent,
Lancome and
Chanel Germany. New York Times fragrance critic
Chandler Burr will be attending as a guest speaker and there will be many other Sniffapalooza friends in attendance.
Featuring brands such as
Parfums Montale,
Ulrich Lang,
Mona di Orio and
Frederic Malle and support from the Fragrance Foundation in Germany, COSPAR (association of perfumeries) and The German Association of Cosmetic Products, to name but a few, will ensure that event is a fascinating weekend of shared enthusiasm and knowledge.
A day trip to Cologne (including a trip to the
4711 factory and The Museum of the History of Fragrance), meals and cocktails and of course shopping opportunities mean that the weekend will not be short of highlights. For more information contact Annekathrin Koch: a.koch@pentacom.de
