Shape of a scent

A good welcome into design studio 1,

Finding the out more about a scent, exploring textures, feelings, lines and even colours of the given scent, what i came up with was my interpretation of what the scent was if it were to take on a more tangeable form.
The scent was strong at first, with an initial impact represented by the flat bottom face of my shape, then as the smell dissipates there are times where the smell comes back , this is represented by the wave profile that my sculpture took on, the end point encompasses the last moment that the scent has within our olfactory senses.

The spiraling 'noodle' around the sculpture is a portrayal of the intensity or over bearing grip the scent had as it was a rather strong scent, when first smelled the spiral has a tight coil and as time goes by the sprial has a less and less tight hold on the sculpture.

Overall i think i portrayed the scent as best i could with the occasional mind block on how hell a scent has a shape, but after that initial impact it became clearer in my head...but not as clear in the model
