But how can you work out what suits the moment? And the best way to get rid of a stink? Perfumers reveal how to make your world smell fantastic.1. Smell is an extreme sensation\u201cScent provokes a visceral reaction,\u201d says Ezra-Lloyd Jackson, a perfumer and artist who makes wearable fragrances under the brand name deya and creates scent installations for art exhibitions. What fascinates him about working with scent is the process of transforming \u201csomething that is grotesque or alarming into something that is familiar and comforting, or vice versa\u201d.2. Your reaction to a smell is linked to memoryMaya Njie makes perfumes inspired by her Swedish and Gambian heritage. She tried to capture this feeling in other artistic forms before realising that what she really wanted was to portray the way it smelled. \u201cWe know that our sense of smell is directly linked to the part of the brain where our memories are stored,\u201d she says. \u201cSo it makes a lot of sense that fragrance and smells are connected to our memories. If you smell something that someone has worn, or you go to a house that belongs to your grandparents, smelling makes you feel way more emotional than a photo ever could.\u201d Jackson describes this as \u201cinternal time travel. It is another form of communication that isn\u2019t linguistic.\u201d3. It is possible to train your nose\u201cThat is what perfume is all about,\u201d says Jackson. He didn\u2019t have a very orthodox route into perfumery: \u201cI went straight into a laboratory and got to work, but most people will train at one of the schools in France, where the first year is all about learning 500 smells.\u201d Brighton-based French perfumer Elodie Durande, who works for Somerset label Ffern, honed her craft at the University of Montpellier. \u201cYou start out by working on your olfactory skills, remembering smells and describing smells,\u201d before receiving a wide-ranging education about the perfume industry, she says.
