The Most Important RFP You Will Ever Receive.

To the Visionaries of Scent,

This is not a brief. This is an invitation to create the olfactory embodiment of a philosophical operating system designed to navigate complexity at the scale of interstellar civilization.

What Is Clarosophy?

Clarosophy is not a system, but a philosophical orientation – designed to move with complexity, not master it. It treats meaning, power, and existence not as puzzles to solve, but as forces to navigate at civilizational scale

We are seeking a perfumer – an architect of experience – who understands that scent is not decoration but declaration. The fragrance we seek to create is not a scent. It is a threshold. It is signal disruption.  It will be worn not for attraction, but for activation.

Our View

We are proposing the creation of an unprecedented fragrance that embodies the following principles:

Superpositional Complexity

A scent built to move. It shifts, layers, slips—refusing to land in any fixed form, yet somehow always holding its shape. On skin, it unfolds with an unfamiliar rhythm, governed by rules you only start to notice once it’s already changed again.

---

Temporal Arbitrage

A scent that could be uncovered in a pre-human ruin or worn aboard the first generation ship leaving Earth.

---

The Clarity of Complexity

This fragrance does not arrive all at once. It asks something from those who wear it—and those who encounter it. Its meaning isn’t immediate. It rewards patience, attention, and the willingness to stay with it longer than you’re used to.

---

The Ritual of Application

This is not something you throw on. It begins with the act of wearing it. Application is entry. Each use marks a transition—from one role, one stance, one world—to another.

Beyond Gender, Beyond Classification

It must reject inherited binaries. This is not “masculine” or “feminine,” “fresh” or “spicy.” It operates in a space outside known categories.

---

Your View

We are looking for a perfumer – or a house – that understands that fragrance can be a system of meaning, a sensory philosophy, a cognitive architecture.

 It can be an act of world-building.

---

Response Structure

• A short proposal, or conversation, outlining how you would approach this concept. We are not looking for ingredient lists – we are looking for your interpretation of philosophy, fragrance,  and world-building.

---

Compensation & Collaboration

We’re not looking for a vendor as we build something that hasn’t been built before. The structure of the partnership should reflect that. We’re open to joint authorship, shared rights, or whatever form fits the scale and trajectory of the work.
