Journey to the Center of the Earth, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Around the World in 80 Days, Michel Strogoff, Five Weeks in a Balloon… These are titles that undoubtedly form part of the collective imagination of many generations.

Now, Ideal, the Digital Arts Center of Barcelona, invites you to rediscover these works through an immersive experience that combines an enveloping room, 360º virtual reality, the metaverse, and interactive activities.

In addition to offering the latest in virtual reality technology, Ideal has aimed to be a pioneer by integrating the sense of smell into this experience. With the collaboration of the Fundación Ernesto Ventós, five key spaces have been perfumed, making this immersive experience a unique event, notable for being the first to include an olfactory proposal. The choosen perfums are:

  • For rooms 1 and 2, the SICILIAN FLAME perfume → characterized by its citrus lemon note accompanied by cedar and with an ambered mossy base.
  • For room 5, the MASALA perfume → A combination of spicy notes, with tones of cinnamon, nutmeg, orange, and a floral body of white flower.
  • For the Metaverse room, the BYRON BAY perfume has been chosen → A perfume characterized by its marine and citrus notes with green hints.
  • And finally, for the Store, the CEREZO DE ASIA perfume has been selected → with a combination of more floral and fruity notes, highlighting melon, plum with a green character, the floral body of lily of the valley-white flower, and finally, violet with a woody base.
