The Museum of Feelings brought emotion and scent to life through an engaging and immersive experience, inspired by Glade® fragrance during the 2015 holiday season.

The Museum of Feelings, visited by 56,000 people in New York last November, was an interactive experience built to showcase the connection between scent and emotion. Visitors were taken on a sensory journey through the Museum, where Glade® fragrances acted as the muse to inspire visitors to explore their emotions. The exterior of the Museum changed color based on the mood of New York City. The mood was determined using the sentiment of conversations by New Yorkers on Twitter, coupled with local news and trends including the weather, stock exchange fluctuations and flight delays.

Commenting on the wins for Glade®, Ann Mukherjee, global chief marketing officer at SC Johnson said, "How do you get people to remember a smell? Build memories around it. Create an experience. We gave the world a whole new way to look at Glade®. We're very honored and humbled to win SC Johnson's first Gold Lion at Cannes for the Museum Of Feelings curated by Glade®."

In addition Ziploc® brand was awarded a Bronze Lion at Cannes in the Outdoor category which celebrates creativity experienced out of home and is awarded to brands which leverage public space to telegraph a message clearly and effectively. Ziploc® brand received the award for the brand's negative space poster campaign which includes "Tools," "Toys" and "Cereal." The out of home posters are part of this year's "Chaos Comes to Life" campaign which is rooted in the insight that in everyday family life, chaos can surprise you at a moment's notice but Ziploc® brand is here to help you put everything in its place.
