Molecules, 2022 When creating a flavor to elicit a specific odor object characterized by odor sensory attributes (OSA), expert perfumers or flavorists use mental combinations of odor qualities (OQ) such as Fruity, Green, and Smoky.

The influence of odors on time perception [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 The effect of an olfactory stimulation on the perception of time was investigated through two different experiments based on temporal bisection tasks. In experiment 1, the durations to be classified as either short or long were centered on 400 ms while ...

Determinants of Odor-Related Perception: Analysis of Community Response
AtmosphereThis study intends to identify and quantify the individual, perceptual, and contextual factors associated with odor-related perception and to assess the perception of odor sources according to meteorological conditions.

No Evidence That Hormonal Contraceptives Affect Chemosensory Perception
i-Perception, 2021 The use of oral contraceptives (OC) in the form of a hormonal pill has been widespread for decades. Despite its popularity and long-time use, there is still much ambiguity and anecdotal reports about a range of potential side effects.

A Review of the Effects of Valenced Odors on Face Perception and Evaluation
i-Perception, 2021 How do valenced odors affect the perception and evaluation of facial expressions? We reviewed 25 studies published from 1989 to 2020 on cross-modal behavioral effects of odors on the perception of faces.

Body odor disgust sensitivity (BODS) is related to extreme odor valence perception. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Odors are important disease cues, and disgust sensitivity to body odors reflects individual differences in disease avoidance. The body odor disgust sensitivity (BODS) scale provides a rapid and valid assessment of individual differences.

Bilateral and unilateral odor processing and odor perception. [PDF]
Commun Biol, 2020 AbstractImagine smelling a novel perfume with only one nostril and then smelling it again with the other nostril. Clearly, you can tell that it is the same perfume both times. This simple experiment demonstrates that odor information is shared across both hemispheres to enable perceptual unity.

Antagonistic interactions between odorants alter human odor perception. [PDF]
Curr Biol, 2023 Abstract The olfactory system detects a vast number of odorants using hundreds of olfactory receptors (ORs), the largest group of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. Each OR is activated by specific odorous ligands. Like other GPCRs, activation of ORs may be blocked through antagonism.

A network model of affective odor perception. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2020 The affective appraisal of odors is known to depend on their intensity (I), familiarity (F), detection threshold (T), and on the baseline affective state of the observer. However, the exact nature of these relations is still largely unknown. We therefore performed an observer experiment in which participants (N = 52) smelled 40 different odors (varying

The contribution of temporal coding to odor coding and odor perception in humans. [PDF]
Elife, 2020 Whether neurons encode information through their spike rates, their activity times or both is an ongoing debate in systems neuroscience. Here, we tested whether humans can discriminate between a pair of temporal odor mixtures (TOMs) composed of the same two components delivered in rapid succession in either one temporal order or its reverse. These TOMs
