131 Learning to Smell the Roses with Kendra Gaeta
Manage episode 366156704 series 121420
On this episode of the root simple podcast I talk to Kendra Gaeta about something you probably don’t think about too much–your sense of smell. As usual with the podcast, I have a bad habit of turning off the recorder too soon. After I recorded this interview with Kendra, who is a board member of the Institute for Art and Olfaction, Kendra pulled out a box of scents in tiny vials and proceeded to blow my mind.
Smelling all those vials was a reminder of the sheer range of smells we might encounter and, most likely, ignore in the course of a day. Paying attention to our sense of smell opens up a whole new reality. We think a lot about things we see, hear and taste but don’t give a lot of thought to the way we experience the world through our noses. Kendra will change what you know about your nose! During the conversation Kendra mentions:
- The Institute of Art and Olfaction
- Beyond perfume–who works with scent
- The Smelly Viles
- Ghost Hunters of Urban Los Angeles
- Perfumers Apprentice + Flavors Apprentice (An amazing source for small quantities of scents and flavors)
- The smell of the International Space Station
