Chile Born 0 Agar Olfactory

Known for concept-driven, experimental compositions that engage themes of ecological collapse, toxicity, and atmospheric biopolitics rather than conventional fine fragrance structures. Their practice incorporates bacterial communities, aromatic molecules, food absorption and so-called unscented or barely-scented accords to question perfume’s role in cohabitation, interspecies relations, and care.
