About Chémin

Designing the Invisible™

Chémin is a sensory design house. Fragrance is our first language. It is not our only one.

What we do

Sensory design for the home, the body and the places we gather.

Chémin designs the sensory and emotional signals that shape how people experience, remember and respond to a place, product or ritual.

November Nichols

November Nichols founded Chémin with a belief that what we feel is shaped by more than what we see. Through fragrance, ritual and design, she creates sensory experiences for the home, the body and the places we gather.

“Home is a feeling we carry with us and create for others.”
