The sense of smell plays an essential role in our daily lives. It enables us to savor food, detect dangers (gas leaks, fire...) and appreciate the scents that surround us.
It is closely linked to our memory and emotions. A familiar scent can evoke childhood memories or provoke multiple emotions, from the most pleasant to the most unpleasant.
Smell is a powerful sense, enriching our sensory experience and contributing to our overall well-being.
L`Éveil de l'Odorat is an association whose aim is to raise awareness, educate or re-educate the sense of smell, train and inform based on the sense of smell:
- To promote and support all professional activities related to the olfactory field, as well as all artistic and cultural olfactory and sensory activities.
- Disseminate knowledge of the perfume industry and honor its players, perfumers, producers of perfume plants, etc.
- Organize educational, recreational, cultural and artistic events and workshops based on the sense of smell (for all ages and audiences), as well as teaching in the form of internships, training courses, study and research stays or courses.
- To publish works related to the association's purpose.
Consciousness of the body, emotional intelligence and respect for nature are at the heart of each of the association's proposals, with olfactory communication acting as a link in the service of human potential for fulfillment, health and vitality.
