Scent marketing for businesses means diffusing a fragrance chosen or created for a professional space to serve a clear goal: welcoming people, reassuring them, making a brand recognisable, creating calm or simply avoiding a bad impression.

To scent a spa or a beauty salon, diffuse a soft, recognisable fragrance at reception, in the corridors and in the relaxation room, while staying very discreet in treatment rooms so as not to compete with the products used.
