New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Billabong, the surf clothes and equipment specialist, has appointed Mood Media (TSX:MM), the world leader in Customer
Experience design, to develop the sound and scent for a number of its flagship stores.
The designers at Mood have created a bespoke sound and scent strategy for 10 of Billabong's stores located in France and Spain. Billabong wanted to reflect the "board culture" and values of the brand - meaning Mood had to combine youth, dynamism and fun. Mood renews the strategy every two months to ensure it is kept original and that Billabong's customers have a unique experience on each visit to its stores.
The Mood team, in partnership with ScentAir, also created a tailored scent solution for the Billabong stores. A clean fragrance, called "Sex Wax," based on the well-known surfboard wax brand, was developed to help the customer experience the essence of the Billabong brand.
"We are delighted to help Billabong create a bespoke in-store experience for its customers. By developing a new sound design and fragrance with Mood, Billabong can now plunge guests into an immersive experience based on our unique technology and creative solutions," said
Linda Ralph, International VP of Business Development at Mood.
With the creation of this musical and scent-based solution, Billabong invites guests to discover - or re-discover - its stylish clothing range and long-respected sports equipment.
