A.P.C. collaborate with Air Aroma

A.P.C. collaborate with Air Aroma
Jean Touitou, founder of A.P.C., never thought he would create a perfume. Until he met essential oil perfumist Haley Alexander Van Oosten in L.A. After trying one of her essential oil blends and liking the idea of a little glass bottle inside a wood container, Touitou decides otherwise.
The end result is Sustain, a balanced blend of 12 essential oils like a 12-string guitar. Sustain is based on the idea of the smell of a guitar case lined in velvet in which rose petals have been scattered. With a reassuring persistence, the scent of Sustain lasts the perfect amount of time.
To launch Sustain in its stores in Paris, New York and L.A., A.P.C. partnered with Air Aroma to diffuse a derivative version of Sustain through Air Aroma’s stylish Aroslim diffusers. The result is a subtle scent lingering throughout the stores, clearly leaving Touitou’s mark.
