01 / The brief

Tiong Bahru Bakery ×
Oo La Lab.

Tiong Bahru Bakery asked us to capture the scent of brioche in a hand wash. The challenge was to keep its buttery character while making it feel appropriate on skin.

02 / The work

A familiar smell. An unfamiliar form.

We worked with vanilla, caramel and pineapple notes to develop the fragrance, then applied and tested it in a hand soap formulation. The first production run was completed in under eight weeks.

03 / The outcome

An initial 500 hand washes were produced for sale across Tiong Bahru Bakery outlets. The project extended the bakery’s identity into a daily ritual and attracted media coverage.
