SILICA.

From sand, a scent.

A concept fragrance told by scroll: a sand-to-glass film, a vessel you can take apart, notes poured in strata and a sand garden you can rake.

The piece, section by section

From sand, a scent.

Origin

A film you scroll.

722 frames drawn to a canvas — scroll picks the frame, from a grain of sand to a bottle in bloom.

Vessel

Take the bottle apart.

Transmission glass, a brushed brass cap and a strata liquid shader. Scroll separates five parts; the labels follow them in 3D.

Notes

Poured in strata.

Base, heart and top fill the glass one after another. Point at a note to light its layer.

Trace

A sand garden.

Rake grooves with the pointer and hold to mist — the trace settles and fades.

Sound

“Sand Remembers.”

Original music for the promo film, synthesised in code — D minor, 120 BPM.

Made honestly

SILICA is a concept — nothing is for sale. The opening film was generated with Google Veo; the vessel, liquid, sand and mist are code. In the promo video the laptop and room are rendered; the screen is a frame-by-frame capture of the real page.
