Monday 27th February is Anosmia Awareness Day and we have two industry events to share.
Anosmia Awareness Day Open Webinar Organised by IFRA
On the essence of scent – a look at the science and philosophy of smell, what it’s like to live without it, and how fragrance enriches our wellbeing. (Open to IFRA members and the public)
“Smell can spark joy and bring color to the world – it can enrich our experiences and memories. And yet, sufferers of anosmia – the partial or total loss of the ability to smell – lack this sense. This struggle can be alarming and bewildering as it takes away one of the main ways in which we interpret the world around us.
The International Fragrance Association (IFRA) invites you to an insightful webinar that will delve into the depths of this unique condition the occasion of Anosmia Awareness Day on 27 February 2023.
Professor Barry Smith, Director of the Institute of Philosophy at the Centre for the Study of the Senses, will shed light on the science and philosophy of smell.
He will be followed by Duncan Boak, Founder of charity Fifth Sense who will delve into the emotional and psychological effects of losing this vital sense through the lens of his own experience.
Whether you’re a fragrance professional, an anosmia sufferer, or simply someone with a passion for scent, this webinar is a must-attend.
