A new Science and Technology Sensory Centre of Excellence has opened at Givaudan’s UK site in Ashford in Kent.
Explains Michael Carlos, head of Givaudan’s Fragrance Division: “Odour evaluation is at the heart of our business. This investment gives our scientists state-of-the-art facilities in which to measure fragrance performance and to precisely understand the effect of different climates, conditions and equipment upon perfume performance.”
The centre brings together four teams to focus on measuring and identifying perfume brands and is headed up by Jeremy Ness. The new facilities include an outstanding array of laboratories and evaluation rooms for the use of the Sensory Analysis, Measurement Science and Sensory Neuroscience teams.
