Platform

One platform. Every connected home fragrance product.

WICOVA gives a physical product an identity, a memory and a voice. Three layers share one symbol and one set of rules, from the tag under the lid to the dashboard on a brand's desk.

Three layers

Passport, Vision, Intelligence.

Sub-brands never get their own symbols. Each is WICOVA, with a descriptor.

Digital product passport

WICOVA Passport

A unique digital identity for every physical product. Activation, provenance, burn history, remaining life, care and authentication in one place, owned by the customer.

AI candle analysis

WICOVA Vision

Computer vision that reads a photograph of a burning candle: melt pool, wick, tunnelling and soot, with one clear recommendation.

Analytics and product data

WICOVA Intelligence

Behavioural fragrance intelligence for customers and real-world product performance for brands, aggregated by product, batch and fragrance.

A tag under the lid, a code on the base.

The physical layer is deliberately simple. The customer lifts the lid and finds a hidden feature, not a sticker.

Ordinary NFC tags fail against metal. WICOVA specifies an anti-metal tag with a ferrite layer so it reads reliably through a phone held against the underside of a metal lid.

Consumer experience

Dark by default. One action per screen.

Candles are lit in the evening. The passport is a mobile web experience that opens on tap: numbers large, everything else quiet, the partner brand named first.

RecommendationTrim approximately 2–3mm before your next burn. A shorter wick gives a steadier flame and less soot. Wait until the wax is fully set.

Product lifecycle

Every stage, one record.

A product's passport follows it from the batch it was made in to the moment it is replaced.

  1. 01
    Made

    A product and batch are created by the brand.

  2. 02
    Enabled

    WICOVA issues an identity and the tag is fitted under the lid.

  3. 03
    Sold

    The product ships through any channel, unchanged on the outside.

  4. 04
    Activated

    The customer taps the lid and the passport opens.

  5. 05
    Burned

    Sessions, remaining life and care are recorded.

  6. 06
    Analysed

    Vision reads the burn; Intelligence builds the profile.

  7. 07
    Replaced

    The right next product is recommended from the same brand.

Beyond candles

Built for home fragrance, not just candles.

Candles are first because they burn, and burning is measurable. The identity, passport and intelligence layers apply to anything that scents a room.
