One of the hall’s showstoppers is the original, simple, artistic and elegant collection of fragrance diffusers at Project Object’s booth, which captivated visitors’ senses of sight and smell. “There is also a poetic or philosophical touch to each of these fragrance diffusers as you read the descriptions, which will help you understand the designers’ ideas and appreciate the designs as more than just objects,” said Zhang Zhi, sales manager at Shenzhen EY-PRODUCTS Household Products Co.
