Flowers, petrichor and your fragrance has always been music’s favourite things to describe love and emotion. Music has often been connected to fragrances due to its essence and the way both things have the power to hold a memory and create an impression. Indian music has talked about fragrance in the most romantic and most sentimental ways, describing each emotion through fragrances and music.
Each track becomes a mood, and each mood becomes a fragrance. Artiscents explores this crossover through blends that match tone, texture, and emotional weight. It creates a path where favourite songs transform into fragrances meant to be worn like memories.
Iconic Songs as Fragrances
“Channa Mereya” - The Emotional Anthem in Amber and Musk
This Arijit Singh classic carries the kind of ache that sits quietly in the chest. It feels warm yet heavy, much like a perfume built with soft musks and rich amber, the kind of notes that stay long after everything else fades. The way the melody rises slowly is similar to how deep base notes unfold on the skin, revealing emotion layer by layer. The song’s gentle heartbreak matches amber’s comforting glow and musk’s soft, lingering hold. Artiscents brings together these notes when creating fragrances meant to preserve memories with tenderness. It is a scent for those who find comfort in music during moments of stillness and reflection.
“Dil Dhadakne Do” - The Feel-Good Bop in Citrus and Bright Florals
Amit Trivedi captures movement, openness, and youthful brightness in this track. The mood feels sparkling and immediate, like a burst of bergamot, mandarin, and light jasmine petals. The citrus gives that sharp, clear burst, while soft jasmine adds a gentle floral lift. The whole mood of the song moves just like a daytime perfume meant to make everything feel lighter and more open.
Artiscents uses these bright, citrus-led accords to create blends that feel clean, sunny, and full of possibility. This pairing speaks to anyone who enjoys a little optimism in their everyday rhythm, and finds joy in scents that feel as refreshing as a good song played at the right moment.
“Tum Itna Jo Muskura Rahe Ho” - The Moody Classic in Smoke and Spice
Jagjit Singh’s ghazal holds stillness and intensity. His voice feels like sitting by a dim lamp late at night, with the soft trail of agarbatti smoke curling through the room, bringing back memories you thought time had buried.
If this ghazal were a scent, it would be a blend of oud, cedarwood, and a whisper of warm spice. These notes unfold slowly, like emotions that rise only when the world is still. There is a depth in these ingredients that mirrors the weight of Jagjit Singh’s words, the kind that settles into the heart rather than the air. We, in Artiscents use these rich, soulful notes to craft fragrances meant for quiet evenings and reflective moods.
This pairing connects deeply with anyone who has ever found themselves lost in thought, holding on to a feeling from long ago, finding comfort in a song that understands pain the way old Hindi and Urdu poetry always have.
“Baarishein” - The Soft Indie Hit in Skin Scents and Aromatics
“Baarishein” by Anuv Jain carries the kind of softness that feels like a memory unfolding in slow motion. The song holds a quiet warmth, the kind that brushes past you gently, much like the first chill in the air before rainfall. It has the tenderness of standing by a window during the season’s first shower, watching the world pause as raindrops meet the earth.
If this song were a fragrance, it would be a delicate blend of sheer musk, soft lavender, and the unmistakable scent of petrichor - that earthy freshness that rises when rain touches dry soil. Petrichor adds a nostalgic, grounding depth to the perfume, mirroring the way the song brings back emotions you did not know were still tucked away. These light aromatics melt into the skin, creating a trail that feels intimate and comforting.
Artiscents often turns to these subtle, rain-washed notes when designing fragrances that evoke calm, emotion, and the beauty of simplicity. This pairing suits those who love quiet acoustic melodies, gentle pauses, and scents that feel like monsoon evenings - soothing, and full of unspoken stories.
How Songs Shape Scents: From Genre Moods to Personal Matches
Genres influence how music is felt, just as fragrance families influence how scent is experienced. When the two come together, they give beginners an easy, intuitive way to understand perfumes, letting familiar songs guide the senses toward the right olfactory mood. Artiscents often works with this same idea, creating fragrances that move like melodies and express emotion through carefully chosen notes.
Pop: “Love You Zindagi” - Citrus, Fruits, Light Florals
The upbeat freedom of this track feels instantly refreshing, much like clean citrus and airy florals. Artiscents uses these bright, sparkling notes to craft uplifting compositions that match the song’s carefree joy.
Indie: “Cold/Mess” - Musks, Soft Herbs, Woods
Prateek Kuhad’s raw honesty pairs beautifully with musky, earthy accords. These soft herbs and grounded woods reflect the emotional depth that defines indie music. Artiscents turns to such notes when creating fragrances meant for quiet reflection.
Rock: “Zinda” - Leather, Smoke, Spice
This track’s grit, adrenaline, and high-voltage spirit suit bold, textured perfume notes. Leather, smoky spice, and deeper woods create a sense of impact. Artiscents brings these materials together for scents that echo the fierce drive of rock anthems.
Choosing a perfume based on the kind of music that touches the heart makes the process feel personal and intuitive. Artiscents blends this idea into its craft, shaping perfumes that mirror the emotional energy of the song's listeners return to again and again.
Acoustic: “O Rangrez” - Skin Scents
This Amit Trivedi composition has the softness of a quiet, shared moment. It never rushes, much like light musks, delicate florals, and gentle herbal notes that sit close to the skin. Artiscents creates its skin scents with this very intention, fragrances that stay intimate and tender, like an acoustic melody that whispers its way in.
“Teri Mitti” - Amber Notes for Power Ballad Devotees
A song filled with pride, emotion, and soul deserves a fragrance with the same depth. Amber, vanilla, and warm resins carry strength and sincerity, lingering long after they settle. Artiscents uses these rich accords to design perfumes that honour emotion, resilience, and stories rooted in the heart.
Each pairing helps listeners discover a fragrance that speaks their musical language, letting Artiscents bridge rhythm, memory, and scent in a way that feels deeply familiar, and beautifully personal.
When a Song Becomes a Scent
Music shifts emotion with a single line. Perfume shifts presence with a single note. When the two connect, they create creative perfume ideas that feel expressive and immersive. A thoughtful blend of musical mood, emotional tempo, and fragrance structure allows the listener to experience scent through memory. With a refined perfume mood guide and a clear sense of luxury fragrance by personality, it becomes possible to wear the songs that shape everyday moments. Artiscents brings this bridge to life by crafting scents inspired by the emotional power of unforgettable Indian melodies.
