Close your eyes to better see what you breathe.
Nez 18, the magazine that gives color to scents.
What if smelling could also be a way of seeing? This issue explores the fascinating links between smell, colors, and sensory perceptions, to understand how each perfume, in its essence, unfolds an intimate visual landscape unique to each individual.
Whether you are a synesthete or not, this edition invites you to experience olfaction differently — between science, art, and imagination — and to reveal a true olfactory rainbow, made of memories, sensations, and emotions.
It's not a smell you breathe in the dark, but an image you allow to form — with eyes closed, everything suddenly becomes clearer.

A word from Maison Diaphane
A magazine to learn how to see with your nose. Since its creation in 2016, Nez, the olfactory cultural movement, has established itself as a major reference in perfume and olfaction, both in France and internationally. Founded by Jeanne Doré, Mathieu Chévara, and Dominique Brunel, it brings together a multidisciplinary collective of experts — journalists, scientists, perfumers, historians, and artists — with a clear ambition: to reveal the richness of a long underappreciated sense.
