The Digital Olfaction Society (DOS) is leading a groundbreaking global initiative to capture, digitize, and transmit scents from cities around the world, with the goal of reproducing them in Tokyo. This ambitious project aims to digitally archive and recreate the unique fragrances of diverse locations, offering an unprecedented way to experience cultural diversity through scent.

About the Project

DOS invites teams from across the globe to participate in this unique challenge by digitizing scents that represent the cultural essence of their regions. Whether from major cities like Berlin and New York, or locations with distinctive aromas, contributors will play a vital role in creating a vast digital scent archive. A dedicated team in Tokyo will work to faithfully reconstitute these digital scent signatures, with the final technology reveal planned for 2025.

Though the project has faced delays due to its complexity, and additional funding is still being sought, DOS remains confident in reaching its goal. This initiative promises to launch a new era of olfactory digitization, blending advanced technology with the preservation of cultural heritage.
