Aliaksandra Basalayeva’s NYC 33 is a response to the ubiquitous Santal 33 by Le Labo. NYC 33 is a playful, parodic commentary on that ubiquity. It captures the iconic woody-leathery heart of the original and overlays it with a "NYC Accord" – a subtle olfactory stain reflecting the everyday sensory experience of New York City. The result is an olfactory snapshot: Santal 33, as it truly exists in the artist’s New York – not just as a perfume confined to a bottle, but as an undeniable, pervasive part of the city’s very air.
NYC 33 is part of Volatile Derivatives, a group exhibition at Olfactory Art Keller in 2025
