Squishmallows took over New York City this fall with a one-of-a-kind fragrance launch that transformed Lavan Chelsea into a soft, pastel-filled wonderland. The event marked the debut of Squishmallows Fragrances, a new collection created in partnership with Blue Meadow Brands and available exclusively at Ulta Beauty—blending the nostalgia of the beloved plush toys with the sophistication of modern perfume.


A Whimsical Fragrance Launch That Melted Hearts
The Squishmallows Fragrance Pop-Up invited press, influencers, and fans to experience the world of scent through their favorite characters. Guests were greeted by larger-than-life plush displays, candy-colored lighting, and fragrance discovery zones where they could test scents inspired by iconic Squishmallow personalities.
Each fragrance captured the playful spirit of the brand: soft florals, juicy fruits, and comforting gourmand notes that evoked pure joy. The event’s design blended childhood nostalgia with grown-up creativity—making it one of the most talked-about brand activations in NYC this season.
