This week on the show Karen is taking a look at the science and psychology of scent and how we can use it to shift our state. One of the most overlooked elements of perfumery is the physiological properties of scents and how they can link to our memories to create wellbeing. In this fascinating episode Karen will explore the history and science behind this theory and give you some handy tools to use so that you can unlock the psychology of scent.

BEST MOMENTS
“Scent is one of the most powerful tools to bypass our cognitive thought process and link us straight to our memories.”
“A perfumer's job is not just about making a nice smell. It’s about linking scent with a marketing narrative and a customer's behavior.”
“No matter how good the product is, if the scent doesn’t add up in our brains it will devalue the perception of the product's performance.”
