Chiang Mai TCDC 'Make Scents, Make Sense' exhibition sharing

One morning in early January, I went to TCDC in Chiang Mai when I had some free time. There was an exhibition on the first floor called 'Make Scents, Make Sense', which was one of the activities during Chiang Mai Design Week at the end of last year. The exhibition area was not large, making it very comfortable to stroll around. The main idea of this exhibition is to start from scents, advancing from simple sensory experiences to connecting the past and the future, and then extending to cultural values and economic potential. As soon as I entered, I saw a piece of cloth that made me smile because my younger brother also needs to hold a blanket he has used since he was young to fall asleep, just like the scent mentioned in the exhibition carries the bits and pieces of life. Next, you can experience many different scents. The first area features some common perfume scents, while the next area showcases the unique plant scents of northern Thailand. Sometimes in Thailand, I smell scents that are hard to come by in Taiwan, whether pleasant or unpleasant. I am always curious about what exactly those scents are, but find it difficult to describe to others. Here, I can smell them all at once. I find the most special scent to be Chalood, which is commonly used in traditional Thai medicine and is also a raw material for making incense and natural fabric fragrances. The last area gathers many perfumes created by perfumers, ranging from light to heavy scents. Next time you visit Chiang Mai, don't forget to come here for a stroll!
