Janice, we look forward to hearing your presentation about the science of fragrance! See below for a description of what to expect from her talk The Science of Fragrance.

See how the length of a carbon chain can take an aromatic ingredient from an effervescent airy character to a fruity note and on to a spicy accord. You will better understand the science behind the different raw materials impact how fragrances are perceived.

This interactive smelling session will move across the olfactive categories exploring the unique characters of classification. The knowledge will open the doors to the wonders of fragrance and provide the tools to understanding and communicating through the language of fragrance.
