The Signature System
A hidden lid that keeps your space alive.
At the bottom corner of each Chitra Vāsa wall, a small brass emblem, our maison's mark, opens like a jewel-box. Within it rests a thin molecular fragrance sheet. A whisper of our regenerative attar mist refreshes its bloom for weeks.
- IThe lid lifts, discreet as a clasp on a jewellery box.
- IIBeneath it, a replaceable molecular sheet, perfumed in our atelier.
- IIISpray the regenerative mist; the sheet wakes for another season.
- IVWhen it tires, our service team installs a new sheet, in your home.
A renewable scent. Never destroying the artwork.
