“Training the Nose: The Art and Science of Perfume Craft”

I research how the nose mediates material claims and bridges creative practice across artisanal and industrial divides in a comparative study of natural and synthetic perfumery. I posit a dialectic between craft and science, viewing natural perfumery as a form of chemistry and the laboratory as a space of craft.
