Rare Beauty takes scent marketing to a new level with scratch & sniff billboards in Soho and Chelsea, NYC, promoting its first fragrance.
A Fragrance You Can Experience on the Street
These are not your typical billboards — they are actual scented displays that invite pedestrians to engage with the fragrance directly. By scratching the billboard, you can catch the first notes of Rare Beauty’s new eau de parfum before even stepping into a store.
Exclusive QR Code Samples
Adding a digital twist, each billboard includes a QR code that allows fans to claim an exclusive sample of the mini rollerball. This clever integration of physical and digital marketing boosts engagement and encourages social sharing.
