Auric Essentials is reimagining how wellness is felt, using scent as a dynamic therapeutic interface. Our flagship device, the AromaSphere™, is the world’s first AI-powered, IoT-connected diffuser that adapts scent delivery based on biometric inputs, mood preferences, and behavioral patterns.
Designed to integrate with smart home ecosystems (Apple, Google, Alexa), the AromaSphere personalises rituals for sleep, calm, energy, and focus using certified essential oils and RFID-enabled tracking. The platform includes a growing library of 25+ scent rituals and a mobile app launching in 2026 to guide usage and deepen engagement.
With 87% gross margins on consumables and a hardware-enabled recurring revenue model, Auric is building a scalable, defensible moat around sensory wellness—combining scent science, AI, and beautiful hardware into a seamless experience.
Auric Essentials has raised $750k AUD on a Pre-Seed SAFE @ $5.5M post-money to commercialise the Aromasphere™ and scale our AI-powered Mood-as-a-Service™ platform globally.

• Minimum cheque size: $50K AUD
