Shared spaces need restraint
Medical, sensitivity-critical and highly shared environments can make added fragrance inappropriate.
SPACES EXPLAINER
Fragrance-free Spaces
Sometimes the best scent direction is no added fragrance at all.
Food should often lead
Restaurants and food-focused spaces usually already have a strong smell identity that should not be competed with.
Choice is part of good design
A mature scent system should be able to recommend fragrance-free rather than forcing a scented answer.
SmellBook treats fragrance-free as a valid design outcome, not a failure to recommend.
