The Olfactory Magazine 08 Addictive Substances
The Olfactory Magazine 08, ‘Addictive Substances’ by By Nez, explores the long history of allusions to illegal substances and the language of addiction within the world of perfumery. The magazine poses the provocative question of whether perfume can truly be addictive, and demonstrates how perfume has continued to fuel a dependence on alcohol and ethanol for centuries. It also highlights the influence of the love of ethanol on the development of the industry and, drawing on insights from the dog’s nose, explores the possible link between narcotics and smell. In doing so, you’ll discover the relationship between our sense of smell and addictive substances.
