Coty Travel Retail, in partnership with global travel retailer Gebr. Heinemann, is excited to debut \u201cMy Fragrance Garden,\u201d an exclusive experiential installation reimagining fragrance discovery through the lens of sustainability, education, and innovation.<\/p>\n

At the heart of \u201cMy Fragrance Garden\u201d is an immersive multi-brand installation inviting travellers to explore the five core pillars of Coty\u2019s sustainable fragrance strategy \u2013 upcycled alcohol, upcycled ingredients, eco-designed packaging, fragrance drop sampler, and fragrance refills. Each pillar is brought to life through a spotlight on fragrance innovations across five signature brands, coupled with tactile displays, QR code-enabled storytelling, and immersive content designed to educate and engage visitors.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe launch of \u2018My Fragrance Garden\u2019 is further testament to how sustainability is Coty\u2019s ultimate driver of innovation,\u201d<\/em> said Mette Engell, Senior Vice President, Global Travel Retail at Coty. \u201cThis exclusive installation is a dynamic, exciting manifestation of our \u2018Beauty That Lasts\u2019 strategy, enabling travellers to engage with our fragrance creations in meaningful, educational ways, and understand how we develop products that embody both desirability and sustainability.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAs a retailer, we are in a position between supplier and consumer, raising the importance of collaboration to increase sustainability at the point of sale,\u201c<\/em> added Saskia M\u00f6ller, Director, Legal, Compliance, & Sustainability at Gebr. Heinemann. \u201cIn doing so, the awareness raising <\/em>and education of shoppers is crucial, therefore playing an important part in our sustainability strategy. \u2018My Fragrance Garden\u2019 perfectly contributes to this by shedding light on sustainability product credentials and attracting shoppers to learn more in a playful, exciting way.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Steffen Jopp, Managing Director, Gebr. Heinemann at Berlin Brandenburg Airport, said: \u201cWe are incredibly proud to host \u2018My Fragrance Garden\u2019 at Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). This unique activation transforms travel time into a sensory experience, highlighting sustainability and innovation in a captivating setting. Experiences like this at the point of sale are becoming essential for capturing attention and driving engagement. A heartfelt thank you to all partners and teams involved. We look forward to welcoming travellers and creating memorable moments together.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The centrepiece of the \u201cMy Fragrance Garden\u201d experience is an interactive garden-themed circular display, inviting visitors to immersive themselves in the five key themes underpinning Coty\u2019s sustainable fragrance strategy:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Upcycled Alcohol<\/strong> \u2013 Coty, working in partnership with experts at LanzaTech, uses captured carbon emissions to produce a high-purity alcohol that is suitable for use in fragrances. Created through a natural fermentation process, this new alcohol utilizes near-zero water consumption and significantly reduces the need for agricultural land and fertilizers \u2013 helping to lessen the impact on biodiversity.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Upcycled Ingredients<\/strong> \u2013 Showcasing fragrance components made from repurposed by-products, including upcycled turpentine from the paper industry in CK One Essence, and Cedarwood Virginia sourced from leftover wood chips in Calvin Klein Eternity for Women.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Eco-Designed Packaging<\/strong> \u2013 Demonstrating Coty\u2019s commitment to using less and better packaging, promoting circular and lower impact solutions, while maintaining quality and desirability.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Fragrance Refills<\/strong> \u2013 For example, by using a Burberry Goddess Eau de Parfum refill, consumers can reduce packaging weight by up to 68%* \u2014 cutting down on the main environmental contributors: 75% less glass, 54% less metal, 44% less plastic, and 30% less cardboard1.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Fragrance Drop Sampler<\/strong> \u2013 Spotlight on an innovative testing solution that dispenses a single, touchless drop, offering a precise, low-waste alternative to traditional sprays while preserving the true essence of the perfume.<\/p>\n
