PPR Brings Breath of Fresh Air to Punta Pacifica Office

PPR Brings Air Aroma

Punta Pacifica Realty clients are going to notice something new in the air when they visit our Punta Pacifica office. PPR has become one of the first Panama City businesses to install a state of the art Air Aroma system, which provides different scents to create a more pleasant work environment.

PPR Brings Air AromaOn one level, this is simply cool. Smell is our most powerful sense and Air
Aroma, which recently opened offices in Panama, has done extensive research on the impact scent has on how people experience a place. Scents can have distinct impacts on people. For example, vanilla increases the sense of comfort, which helps makes guests feel connected and relaxed in a business environment.

Air Aroma is high tech. The company’s “Arologic” was specifically designed for hotels.  The company’s “scenting solutions” use the principles of wireless technology “in conjunction with a network of scent diffusers to control multiple scent zones remotely,” according to the company’s web site.

The company bills itself as the “international leader in providing scent marketing solutions, fragrances and technologies.” Another Air Aroma product offers “scenting solutions” for small lobby areas and heating and air conditioning systems. The company will also design “signature sense,” which can help subtly and aromatically separate a company from its competition.


PPR Brings Air AromaAt PPR, we always strive to create a better environment for our clients and employees, even in the small details. If Air Aroma can make more relaxed and focused and provide comfortable atmosphere, we’re all for it.

Right now we are using “Fig Essence,” but we plan on changing the fragrance, depending on the season. At this point, I don’t think too many of our visitors know we’re using Air Aroma, but they can subtly sense the difference. The ambiance is just a little more pleasant. It’s a nice, aromatic addition to our office.

We find our team and clients are a little more relaxed and smile a little more.  While nobody fully understands why, we at PPR know its the effects of the pleasant aromas in the air.

Feel free to stop in to our office at any time to take a deep breath and check out the system.
