D.S.O. (Olfactory Sensorial Device) is a new shopping experience for purchasing perfume. It is a device designed exclusively for the Spanish cosmetics brand Etnia, featuring an interactive screen that allows users to smell a selected fragrance while simultaneously receiving information and images about it.

The D.S.O. contains aluminium capsules housing the 19 fragrances available in Etnia stores. Users select and insert a capsule into a designated slot, where it is detected by a barcode reader, activating a fan that releases the aroma of the chosen fragrance.

During this process, an internal processor sends relevant information to the screen, allowing users to indicate their personal preferences and even receive fragrance recommendations based on their tastes.

The D.S.O. is a unique concept within its market, offering a combined audiovisual and olfactory shopping experience that makes the purchasing process more reliable, enjoyable and efficient.
