3-03 Aroma Chemicals

A session from a workshop in The Art and Technology of Perfumery held in Bangkok 2012.
A session on the making sense and scents from aroma chemical names. A systematic method of decoding chemical names that indicate their smell. Predict the odour of thousands of aroma chemicals JUST FROM THEIR NAMES!
This should be impossible according to the current paradigm but just a couple of hours using the system shows you that it works. But remember this - you have to actually SMELL smells to get this system as really there are no words for smells!
