Facticerie Presents The Scent Of Dalí -- A Surrealist Fragrance Tribute And Immersive Cultural Dreamscape

Founded by Sudhir Gupta, Guinness World Record holder and custodian of olfactory memory, Facticerie is a museum unlike any other. Housing over 3,500 giant perfume sculptures once created as luxurious display art, it now becomes the stage for a surrealist tribute unlike any the fragrance world has seen.

This landmark exhibition showcases the only known complete collection of Salvador Dalí's oversized perfume sculptures--phantasmagoric flacons, melted forms, and amphora-like relics reinterpreted into immersive scent installations. It is a multisensory homage where memory meets imagination, and fragrance becomes a form of artistic rebellion.

Accompanying the exhibit are floral dreamscapes by Venezuelan artist Mercedes Acosta, known for her ethereal creations at the MET Gala. Her installations--featuring dried blooms, botanical shadows, and suspended botanica--echo Dalí's surrealism through a feminine, Latin American lens.

"As a Latin woman, I believe memory is fragrance," says Acosta. "This is my love letter to Dalí--and to every dream that refuses to fade."

"Dalí showed us that the surreal is more real than reality," adds Gupta. "At Facticerie, we honor him not with paint--but with perfume."

Visitors will also discover restored architectural elements from Manhattan's historic Lascoff Pharmacy--converted into scent altars and surrealist cabinets of memory.

Media, cultural editors, and television crews are invited. Bilingual interviews, high-resolution visuals, and press previews are available upon request.
