The niche perfume shop Duft & Kultur moved to Leopoldstadt with French scents and oriental carpets. Small everyday luxuries are back in demand

The new “Fragrance and Culture Bazaar” on Rotensterngasse has been open for a day, and passers-by are already pressing their noses to the front door. The interior promises exoticism and a diffuse sense of well-being, with new colors waiting in every corner.
In addition to the dreary permanent construction site of Praterstrasse, the longing for small luxuries seems great. The business owner Matthias Aschauer, who was knocked out the door, has to put off the tourists and Viennese a little – following the photo shoot he will allow entry.
The 125 square meter branch of the niche perfume institution Fragrance & Culture in the Tuchlauben lives up to its name: an oriental luxury market awaits behind the Art Nouveau entrance. Old pictures of medicinal herbs on the wall, perfumes (50 to 300 euros) and green incense from Oman (10 grams at 3.50 euros each) in apothecary cabinets, the bitter, fresh smell of coniferous wood in the air. Fragrance and culture.
