For the St. Valentines weekend of Saturday, Feb. 12, through Monday, Feb. 14, love was literally in the air in Mexico City’s upscale Colonia Polanco as the Mexican Aromaria Interior Fragrances company brought it new home perfume Scent of a Kiss to the great outdoors.

The sensual blend of the aromas of fresh primroses, wild musk and apricot buds were diffused via a giant three-meter-long incense stick supported by a massive Scent of the Kiss board where passersby were invited to tie a card on which they had written their deepest St. Valentine’s Day wishes and pose for selfies.

Everyone who participated in the three-day, spread-the-love event was also given a free sample of the new interior scent to take home and fill their house with a true fragrance of love that would linger for hours.

All Aromaria home scents are produced in Mexico from essences imported from Grasse, France.
