Ynvisible Teams Up with L’Oreal on Printed-Electronic Perfume Selectors
LISBON, PORTUGAL—Feb. 24, 2012—Ynvisible and L’Oreal Luxe Division in Portugal have developed on-shelf, interactive perfume selection advisors that are in use in select major perfume shops. The innovative point-of-sale displays use a combination of effective printing and electronics solutions to direct the customer to the right choice of perfume, following a short quiz to identify the shopper’s preferences.
This is the first interactive display developed by Ynvisible to be commercially used in the retail environment.
According to Ynvisible’s CEO, Inês Henriques, “Ynvisible provides brand owners and retailers with printed interactive solutions that help improve consumers’ shopping experiences. By combining print and electronics, we are able to cost-effectively bring functionalities consumers enjoy in on-line shopping to the physical stores.”
According to Nuno Paiva Brandão, general Manager of L’Óreal Luxe Portugal, “Purchasing fragrances is an experience that involves multiple senses and is linked to personal lifestyle. With the wide range of options available, making a selection can be a challenge, especially if you are purchasing a perfume as a gift. Ynvisible’s solution is an original and amusing experience that leads to the ideal choice.”
