The Art and Olfaction Awards jury brings various interests, backgrounds and specializations to the very hard task of judging scent. We strive to create a diverse and international jury that is composed of active participants in the scent world, from perfume business leaders to artists; curators to writers, scientists and - of course - perfumers.
We believe that submissions should be judged by a group of people that is able to understand the context for the work submitted in their category - be it an owner-operated perfume company, an international niche perfume brand, or an experimental artwork that incorporates scent. We also believe that a diversity of interests creates a stronger and more progressive jury. All of our judges must adhere to the judging code of ethics, which you can review here.
We are adding our judges for the 13th awards now: Please watch this space!
