Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 27: Gamitronics backed PartyNite, India's homegrown Metaverse is proud to announce a multi-pronged association with world renowned perfume brand Rasasi. In a bid to expand its digital footprint exponentially, the perfume giant has acquired a prime piece of virtual real estate within the PartyNite Metaverse, aptly naming it as RasasiWorld where fragrance and storytelling unite to offer an unparalleled immersive experience. RasasiWorld is set to redefine the way one interacts with fragrances and connects with brands.
RasasiWorld stands as an acre of land bought as a digital collectable within the PartyNite ecosystem which has a Rasasi store front and a few forests from where the best quality agarwood is sourced which is a parallel to the forests across 4 countries India, Srilanka, Cambodia and Indonesia IRL. Adding a layer of interactivity, within RasasiWorld, a Gen-AI fuelled perfumer Talha will be teaching a step -by- step method to make perfumes which will be a great way to run campaigns for the user to learn the process and create their own scents which might selectively be launched in the real world as well. The feature not only creates opportunities for users to get immersed in RasasiWorld but opens up a sense of ownership in the users and converts them into brand loyalists. The activation also integrates Generative- AI features as well, using which users can access a plethora of information about perfumes, Rasasi store locations, in-depth understanding for connoisseurs and customised instant solutions for all users.
Omeir Kalsekar, Business Head of Rasasi Perfumes, said, "Oud has always symbolized spirituality, indulgence, and healing. Through the Agarwood Metaverse, we are creating a virtual realm where the legacy of oud transcends physical barriers, engaging audiences with a fusion of heritage and future technology." He added,"Bringing Agarwood into the metaverse is an exciting step forward, where tradition meets innovation," said Apoorva Srivastava, Head of Marketing and Retail Operations at Rasasi Perfumes. "With this initiative, we are not only redefining how people experience luxury but also celebrating a cultural icon in a way that resonates with a digital-native audience."
Launched at the prestigious location of TODA (Theatre of Digital Arts) in Dubai, in the presence of the Royalties of UAE, over a 360-degree virtual reality screen and virtual reality headsets RasasiWorld opens its gates to users amidst much fanfare and a quick immersive experience of what is in store for them through a seven-minute content extraction from PartyNite. The virtual land parcel will be held by the perfume giant in perpetuity giving them a long-term window to engage with users and nurture a captive audience into loyalists.
Speaking about Rasasi's landmark entry on metaverse, Rajat Ojha, Founder, PartyNite said, "We are thrilled to be the platform of choice for Rasasi. This collaboration is not just an innovative marketing move but a landmark one that opens up a plethora of use cases for metaverse- brand collaborations. A legacy brand invests in story telling and embarks on creating loyalists which is always a long-term play instead of quick to forget thirty seconders which are snacky in nature. It is extremely forward thinking of Rasai to not just immerse its audiences in story telling but also nurture them with multipronged immersive experiences to turn them into a captive audience who eventually become loyalists. Users get to learn about the legacy of the brand and their craftsmanship, understand the category better, immerse themselves in experiences like visiting the forests, sourcing agarwood and finally visiting the workshop to make a perfume which may even be launched in the real world. By the time you are done, you are not just well acquainted with the brand you become an expert yourself under Rasasi's aegis so by default you become a Rasasi loyalist"
Ojha speaks about brand engagement on Metaverse globally, he states, "Imagine a brand which is purely dependent on olfactory senses has taken its marketing -mind a few notches higher to cultivate its audiences. It's clearly a brand play directed at GenZ and Gen Alpha to hog their share of screen time, catch them where they live and give them what they enjoy which is interactive and immersive- not just a mere video where then they will zone out. Stories build a brand and stories that convert a user to a loyalist and that's what we are trying to achieve with Rasasi World. Adding a layer of Generative AI which paces up everything to the gamification of the experience which puts people right into the heart of the brand story, creating a community and bringing like minded people together, this association also showcases PartyNite's technical prowess and how we can push the limits".
He further added, "The next generation will live in 3D if not living there already, and we need to prepare for it now. The metaverse is the present, and Rasasi's foray in Metaverse with Rasasi World is an exemplary move in embracing the evolution of consumer engagement. By creating a digital territory that combines storytelling, interactivity, and fragrance exploration, Rasasi is not merely keeping pace with this evolution; it is setting an example for how brands can build lasting connections with their audiences."
Rasasi World will not only provide virtual assets for purchase but also extend the opportunity to acquire physical items, bridging the gap between the digital and physical worlds. This collaboration underscores the broader trend of brands venturing into the metaverse. For Rasasi, it signifies a pivotal moment as they recognize that while fragrance is a sensory experience, the metaverse offers innovative ways to engage consumers, tell captivating stories, and build brand loyalty visually.
