ABOUT OUR JUDGES

The Art and Olfaction Awards jury brings diverse 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 insiders 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 the smallest natural perfume house, an international niche perfume brand, or an experimental work that incorporates scent. We also believe that a diversity of interests creates a stronger and more progressive jury.

We will be adding judges to this page as they confirm. Watch this space!
