Viola Wells @violasjournal is an award-winning Production Designer, writer, and Perfume Curator whose passion for fragrance has shaped her uniquely fascinating career…

Based in Hungary, Viola collaborates with museums and exhibitions to explore the intersection of scent and art history. Her innovative work includes curating fragrances for studies and lectures, as well as scenting movie sets to create immersive atmospheres for actors. With her expertise, Viola transforms fragrance into a storytelling medium, making her a perfect guest for On the Scent. 
From memories that have inspired her, convincing directors to experience the power of scent, a history of the world’s first fragrance based in alcohol, to helping open a perfume museum and THE dream perfuming project she has in mind [my precioussssss]; what a fascinating guest Viola was. We so hope you enjoy listening!
