Chanel No. 5: The Art and Science Behind a Timeless Perfume

Описание: Flavor and fragrance expert Michelle Krell Kydd explores the art and science behind the creation of Chanel No. 5 through a past, present, and future lens. The presentation took place at the Ann Arbor District Library on February 10, 2015 and is part of the "Smell and Tell" series of lectures, which began in 2012 and is ongoing.

Ingredients used in perfumery as well as finished fragrances are demoed at Smell and Tell lectures. Attendees are taught how to develop an olfactory lexicon via “Smell Mapping,” a technique designed by Ms. Kydd that is inspired by perfumery training she received at Givaudan and The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT).

Michelle Krell Kydd is the editor of Glass Petal Smoke, an award winning blog focused on flavors and fragrance. She is a trained "nose" and is passionate about exploring the art-science connection in perfumery.
