Foreword

More knowledge is needed!(Wir können wissen, wir müssen wissen)

Around odors there is a wealth of very differentjobs, but all are wonderful when they are done with pas-sion. Passion is the common denominator for all threeof us, even if we have different activities. What activi-ties, by the way? Some analysis is needed first in orderto see more clearly, so that we can identify more pre-cisely what has to be done for the odor realm.

The three of us agree: Rembrandt was an artist andhe was not a house painter; on the other hand, whendoing his job, a house painter does not look for emotion,and he or she has to be a technician, even if there issome artistic component involved. The most ineffableRembrandt painting is appealing.

We don’t say that technique is better than art, orthat art is better than technique, because the evalua-tion criteria are not the same in the two fields. Shouldwe personally prefer art to technique, as is frequentlyproposed? Probably not, because sometimes we needto paint walls, and Rembrandt is useless in this regard,and sometimes we need something different, and Rem-brandt becomes interesting.

All this shows that our choices have to be carefullyanalyzed, and this discussion is particularly importantin the realm of odors, because it is a place where prefer-ences are ubiquitous. Of course, it is easy to understandthat It smells good indeed means Personally, I like thisodor, so that we can ask the question of the legitimacyof a personal preference, even if this comes from a mas-ter perfumer. How is his preference more important thanthat of a non-specialist? This is a first question . . . ,which we propose not to answer. Our goal here will bethis one: ask questions, because we would love you tothink about them and propose your own answers.

Coming back to jobs, the vision proposed here con-sists in considering that there are different jobs, in theareas of art, technique, technology, science. In order toavoid hierarchy, let’s consider them in alphabetical or-der: art, science, technique, and technology.

Some people, such as Maurice Roucel, with odors,or the French chef Pierre Gagnaire, with cooking, are re-luctant to call themselves artists, because they fear pre-tentiousness, but facts are always themost important. Aswe said before, Rembrandt was not a house painter, andhis project was emotion, even if it included, of course,mastering the technique, and a commercial component.

In art, there is probably a passion for beauty, asPierre Kurzenne says, and much apprenticeship work

is needed, because work never endsin the quest for perfection in art.We slog and we work. Passion fre-quently means being able to see theintimate interest of the work. Butwith respect to beauty, the issue ishuge.

In the kitchen, the issue is not tolook at dishes, but to eat them. Heregood means beautiful to eat; withmusic, it means beautiful to hear(we don’t care if the pianist is welldressed or not). And one can easilyunderstand that with odors, the issueis to make beautiful odors as well,which means odors that we admire.

Beauty is, then, the main ques-tion in art, and it is interesting toobserve that it has had thousands ofdefinitions in the past centuries, butit always had something do to withemotion and culture. This holds forodors; the project of the odor artistcan be to please, to make happy, toanger, to seduce . . . , but never toleave you indifferent.

For Plato, art was bad, becauserepresenting (reproducing the odorof mango, of olive oil, . . . , etc.)meant a double detachment fromthe truth, but at the same time, thephilosopher could not escape dis-cussing art and he had to tackledifficult questions, such as the fas-cination for perfect representation,like the painting of grapes that ap-peared so true that birds were con-fused!

Anyway, Plato was refuted byAristotle! The odor of the raspberrydoes not exist: any particular rasp-berry has a particular odor, and thismeans that the production of theraspberry odor is a lost battle. Wecan only produce one chosen odoramong an infinity thereof. This isthe old debate of realism againstidealism.

vorist want to interpret and why? This is a questionof individuals, but also of space, time, and . . . More-over, concerning reproduction, we have to admit thatthe copy is never the original, which is why one of us(Hervé This) proposes that the new note by note way ofcooking (see below) should not reproduce, but insteadinvent. It is the same with synthesizers in music: it issure that one can reproduce the sound of a violin, butwhy? If one loves music, why not discover unknownsounds, timbers, and music?

Let’s move to technique now. Here, the project isvery different, because the goal is to make, to build.Techne, in Greek, means to do. For this kind of activ-ity, the criteria are precise reproduction, regularity, andcare. After decades of studying culinary productions,it appeared to one of us that care is the most impor-tant parameter of technicians, because it means givingpleasure, creating a kind of social osmosis through theproduct.

Here, two possibilities exist. One is to reproducewhat was done in the past, by ancestors who lacked ourmodern information on chemistry, physics, and biology;the other is to use all modern information in order to getnew skills and, often, to reach new products.

With odors, these skills can be used in variouscases, such as perfumes, flavors, consumer care prod-ucts, technical preparations, etc. But in all cases, theissue is to deal with mixtures of odorant compounds(i. e., compounds which can link – in one way or an-other – to olfactory receptors) interacting with amatrix,from which components of the mixture are released,at different velocities. For perfumes, this definition isclear, but for flavors? Indeed, if we eat a raspberry,we perceive the flavor of this raspberry. By definition,flavor is the synthetic sensation based on many differ-ent perceptions such as consistency, color, taste, odor,trigeminal perception, and others, because we discovermore and more every year, such as the specific percep-tion of long unsaturated fatty acids on taste buds, or ofcalcium ions, . . . ; and we’re probably not finished.

Odor is one component only, but the status of odor-ant compounds in food is more than odor, because manyfoods have an odor as well as a taste and a trigeminaleffect! It was frequently published in the past that odorwas the most important component of flavor. This is nottrue, as is easily demonstrated by eating after burningone’s mouth with a hot potato, for example: all the fla-vor is lost, even if the odor remains. Let’s keep in mindthat it is not necessary to diminish some (other percep-tions) to make others (odors) appear more important. Ifwe recognize this, we will be able to better include odorin flavor!

Here, let’s conclude by coming back to the idea thatnew information makes new techniques. It is the goal

of this Handbook of Odors to give as fresh informationas possible, and this is why this book is important: newinformation equals modernized techniques.

However, the issue of improving technique is, in-deed, the goal of technology, from techne and logos.One of us published a whole book in order to proposethat there are two kinds of technology, one called lo-cal (the technician, or someone near him, proposes new,more rational ways of doing) and one global, for whichthe engineer looks for results of science, selecting theuseful ones and transferring them to the technical field.Here again, this Handbook is important because by in-cluding chapters from specialists among the best, itgives the basis for innovation. Innovation, the keywordfor the industry!

And finally we look at science. Here we need togive an explanation, because there is much confusionabout it. Indeed, the word science means knowledge,and this is why it is legitimate to speak of the scienceof the shoemaker, or the science of the cook, or the sci-ence of the perfumer . . . However, the science that weneed to discuss here is very different: now, we restrictthe general meaning to the sciences of nature or naturalphilosophy.

For sciences of nature, the goal is to discover themechanisms of phenomena, using the scientific methodbased on:

1. Observing a phenomenon2. Measuring it, which produces a lot of numerical

data3. Grouping these data into laws (i. e., equations)4. Producing theories, i. e., explanations quantitatively

compatible with the data5. Making theoretical predictions which are experi-

mentally tested, and so on, forever.

One could ask if there is a link between science andart, and one of us (Hervé This, certainly a scientist),after decades of close friendship and work with PierreGagnaire (certainly an artist), answers with a verystrong no, even if there has been an intense relationshipbetween artists and scientists, and common characteris-tics such as intuition, liberty, curiosity, enthusiasm . . .Indeed, the goals of science and art are different (mech-anisms on the one hand, emotion on the other), as wellas theways (methodon, in Greek, method) in which theyare achieved.

The method of science was described above; withart it is based on intuition, experience, personal emo-tion, the desire to communicate, . . . If a scientist wantsto move toward art, he or she has to get away from sci-ence to technology, whereas the artist who would liketo move toward science has to go through technique.No relationship between art and science, but rather re-

lationships between the applications of sciences (verydifferent from the sciences) and the technical compo-nent of art (very different from art, even if it is needed).

All this being said, all of us three agree that onevery important component of our activities is to thinkcorrectly and use good vocabulary, taking the utmostcare with semantics. Very frequently, in building odors,young artists don’t find the precise words, and thishas technical consequences because they cannot selectthe right raw materials. For sciences of nature, also,words are very important, and the great Antoine Laurentde Lavoisier, the creator of modern chemistry, quotedCondillac in order to show why nomenclature was thebasis for advances: sciences explore phenomena, butwe have to think of the phenomena in order to studythem; in order to think we need words, and this is why,Lavoisier said, you cannot improve science without im-proving words and vice versa.

By the way, all of us three also agree that with re-spect to odors or flavors, we would love to have morescientific knowledge.

Imagine that you make an odor without taking intoaccount some trigeminal effect. Imagine that you makefood without pepper: the dish would not be what itcould be. Imagine that you don’t know about someparticular interaction effects of odorants on olfactory re-ceptors: again, the result would not be what it should be.In music, it is as if the piano had only a limited numberof notes. We need more information on the relationshipbetween the molecular structure of odorant compoundsand the odors of such compounds. We need more infor-mation about odor release, which means the physicaland chemical description of the diffusion of odorantsinside and outside matrices, including supramolecularassociations. We need more information on the percep-tion of odorants and the various interactions, beforesmelling them, and on the hedonistic interpretation ofthe olfactory perceptions. Of course, all this holds forfood!

Perfumers succeed empirically with their currentmethods, for example making more vanilla note withbergamot, instead of increasing the quantity of vanillin!This is what two of us (Pierre Kurzenne and MauriceRoucel) name contrast. Perfumers also use metaphoricwords such as hot or sparkling, and in the future it couldbe interesting to better understand what this is.

Concerning all this research, the past makespromises for the future. For odors, Nobel prizes havealready been awarded to advances in the field (terpenes,olfactory receptors), but so much remains to be done!At this point, in particular, the prediction of the odorof a particular chemical structure is out of reach, andthe effect of mixtures of odorants remains elusive. Ofcourse, the exploration of God’s shop is important, but

we have to recognize that nature, in spite of our ideas,is far from perfect! Isn’t plague natural, as are as volca-noes, tsunamis, and so on? If we use clothes, buildings,and perfumes, it is because – in a way – we are fight-ing against nature . . . because human beings belong toculture.

It is strange, in this regard, to classify odors intopoisonous and non-poisonous ones. It is also strangethat some odorant compounds are not as they should be.Why are lead salts sweet, yet toxic? Why are some bit-ternesses accepted (think of beer), yet often associatedwith toxic alkaloids? The same holds for some odor-ants!

Let’s finish with the issue of regulation. It is clearthat the public should be protected –but from what?Let’s first recognize that there is a big difference be-tween danger (a knife is dangerous) and risk (the knifecan be used to kill, but if it is in a closed drawer, thereis no risk). Danger is everywhere, but we have to re-duce risks. In this regard, it is certainly good to knowthe dangers and the exposures in order to make regula-tions – but such rules should focus only on risk, not onhazard.

Now, coming back to the issue of nature/culture,we should say that no product of the perfume or fla-vor industries is natural, because it was produced! Let’sremember that something is natural when it was nottransformed by human beings. If you extract an essencefrom a flower, for example, the flower had to be cul-tivated, and the essence had to be extracted. It’s nolonger natural. But who cares: some products of cultureare much better than natural products. Remember Rem-brandt, Matthias Grünewald, ZaoWo-Ki, Bach, Mozart,Debussy, etc.

Moreover, in this regard, the issue of note by notecooking is probably important for the development ofthe odor industry. This new way of cooking was pro-posed for the first time in 1994 by one of us (HervéThis) and it is the culinary equivalent of synthetic mu-sic. Instead of using flutes and violins, one uses purewaves, in order to make sounds, after which music iscomposed. For cooking, the elementary units are notsound waves, but rather compounds, and note by notecooking does not use traditional ingredients (animal andplant tissues), but rather pure compounds, from whichdishes are made.

This proposal is important for regulation because itkills the need to make particular categories for addi-tives and flavorings: compounds used for making foodwould simply be food ingredients. Where will we findthe needed compounds?Of course they can be extractedor synthesized, and we have to tell this to the public!Extracted or synthesized, vanillin is always vanillin,and water is always water. Of course, today a part of

VIII Foreword

the public fears chemistry, but, indeed, it is becauseit does not understand it. One way to circumvent fearis to make it desirable, trendy, fashionable, even for-bidden. This is how Augustin Parmentier succeededin making the French public eat potatoes, before theFrench Revolution: he invited the king to eat them!This strategy has been used to implement note by notecooking.

Let’s imagine that we succeed in developing thisnew culinary trend. How shall we cook? A good waybeing explored today is to design the shapes and con-sistencies, then to design color, taste, odor and trigemi-nal perception, as we add spices to traditional dishes.However flavorists know too well that knowledge isneeded in order to get the desired sensation, becauseof the chemical and physical interactions with the var-ious compartments of the matrix. Chefs will have tolearn, which means that flavorists’ collaboration will beneeded. Of course, one could imagine using flavoringsas we use aromatic herbs and spices, but wouldn’t it bemuch more interesting to use pure solutions of partic-ular odorants (for example, a very small concentration

of 1-cis-hexen-3-ol in ordinary oil), or kits of odors, inorder to make entirely new flavors (edible perfumes)?By experience, chefs are not ready to have flavoriststake the lead on their productions, which means that thefirst, traditional solution of using flavorings is probablynot the future. If kits or pure solutions are the future,the odor industry has to be ready to make entirely newproducts.

Finally, after this long tour, we have to recognizethat life is wonderful, in particular because the worldof odors is fascinating. About art, for technique, fortechnology, for science, there are so many open ques-tions! Questions are promises of answers – if we workwith passion! Passion for odors, passion for imagina-tion, passion for emotions, passion for knowledge . . .

In mathematics, the great David Hilbert said Wirmüssen wissen, wir werden wissen (we must know, wewill know)!

Preface

Olfaction in humans is a sensory dimension that is of-ten underestimated or overlooked entirely. The senseof smell is commonly believed to play only a mi-nor role in human perceptual experiences, which isan understandable misconception when considering theeveryday dominance of vision and hearing for commu-nication, augmented by touch for interaction with theimmediate surroundings. Moreover, these more promi-nent sensory modalities are known to exert both physi-ological and psychological influences on humans (e.g.,sound/noise, light/vision, and temperature/climate) thatcan have an impact on our general wellbeing. In ad-dition, our sense of smell is typically considered tobe inferior to olfaction found elsewhere in the ani-mal kingdom; for example, numerous species are ableto trace the path of an odor source over great dis-tances, or habitually undergo behavioral responses thatare strongly modulated by volatile chemicals, e.g.,pheromone-type compounds, that may play a role inaggression, mating, or rearing offspring. An absenceof scientific proof does not preclude such remarkablecapabilities in humans, yet there is widespread dis-regard for the importance and impact of the humansense of smell. Seemingly, this most likely relates toits association with primitive, animal-like behavior andpotentially uncontrollable effects and responses that areelicited by smells, which are considered to be less ra-tional and, therefore, more appropriate for the animalkingdom; surely the higher intellect of homo sapiens isnot prone to behavioral responses from such primitiveinfluences!

Yet, there is more to the human sense of smellthan meets the nose, so to speak. There is an everincreasing body of evidence from ground-breaking re-search discoveries that demonstrates the crucial rolethat smells play in shaping our lives. From birth on-wards we learn to interact with our environment usingour sense of smell. Evolutionary processes have engen-dered a multifaceted communication that is supported– even dominated – by olfaction. This might be in theform of the smells that nurture the relationship betweenmother and child or influence partner selection, aromasthat form our food preferences, or odors that warn us ofdangers.

In the modern world we are increasingly exposedto smells that were not encountered by our ancestors.These are ubiquitous in our present-day environments

and are met in all aspects of daily life, with sourcesranging from manmade materials, industry, transport,household products, etc.; the list is practically endless.The outcome of this constant evolutionary process inmaterial, product and application development is thatwe have generated a tolerance or even unawareness tonumerous modern smells despite their often pervasiveand abundant nature. By contrast, smells that relate toour appreciation of products such as foods have at-tracted intense scientific interest spanning decades, withthe earliest discoveries dating back to when chemistrywas still in its infancy. Specifically, pleasantly-smellingraw materials and compounds considered to be attrac-tive to humans (e.g., as body scents or room fragrances)were at the focus of early research, sometimes withenormous efforts made to recover and enrich substancesto a sufficient extent to enable a chemo-analytical elu-cidation of the underlying odorous molecules; suchefforts were especially laborious and time-consumingat a time when the analytics and respective instrumen-tation were still rudimentary. Nowadays, an array ofmethods are at our disposal to resolve even the mostcomplex of odor mixtures and decode the structures ofindividual molecules at extremely low concentrations;thus, rather than the insufficient sensitivities and res-olutions limiting early research in this field, presentodorant analytics might be considered as searching fora needle in a haystack, with individual odorants presentamongst a forest of competing signals.

With emerging progress in the biochemical,biomedical, and neurosciences, research in olfactionhas subsequently expanded to include a strong focuson the impact of smells on humans. This new direc-tion has revealed important insights into how smellsare perceived, processed and memorized, and how odorimpressions influence our everyday lives. Nevertheless,the nature of numerous odorants remains unknown, asdoes their influence on perception, physiology and well-being. This is especially true for the modern smells thatare encountered on a daily basis at home, at work, orwhen out and about.

A comprehensive treatment of smells – from an-cient to modern and rare to common – in relation to theimpact they have on our lives currently does not exist.This handbook aims to bridge this gap by aligning thesenso-chemo-analytical characterization of smells en-countered by mankind, tracing the diverse routes of po-

tential formation and release pathways, and elucidatingthe perceptual hedonic, behavioral, and physiologicalresponses of humans to such odors at different stagesof life.

tensified interdisciplinary discussions as a catalyst forgaining further insights and discoveries.

About the Editor

Andrea Buettner read for an undergraduate degree in food chemistry at LudwigMaximilian University of Munich, Germany, and then completed her postgraduate andpostdoctoral research at both the German Research Center for Food Chemistry (DFA)and the Technical University of Munich from 1995 to 2002. Following her habilitationto qualify for full professorship in 2007 she was appointed and still holds two concur-rent positions, both as Founder and Head of the Department of Sensory Analytics atthe Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV in Freising, Ger-many, and of the Odor and Aroma Research Group at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität(FAU) Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany. Andrea has received several accolades for herresearch, including the Kurt-Täufel Prize for young scientists from the Food Chem-istry Division of the German Chemistry Society (2010), the Young Investigator Awardfrom the Food and Agricultural Division of the American Chemical Society (2011),the Danone Innovation Prize (together with Caroline Siefarth, 2012), and the NutriciaScience Award (2013). Since 2012, Andrea has held a position as Full Professor ofAroma Research at FAU in Erlangen.

Andrea’s expertise encompasses the characterization of the main odor triggers in aromas, flavors, and commonodors. Specifically, Andrea is renowned for identifying and characterizing the primary odor triggers in typicalaromas, flavors, fragrances, and smells that are associated with everyday life. Amongst other things, her workinvolves disentangling and subsequently reconstructing characteristic smells, from food aromas to modern man-made materials, based on combined chemo-analytical and human-sensory characterization of the molecular odorconstituents. Her specialized field extends to characterizing odorant release via on-line monitoring of distributionand delivery processes. This particular aspect of her work, for example, has provided insights into the impor-tance of the combined effects of the food matrix, saliva, mucosa, mastication, and swallowing on flavor releaseand perception. In view of physiological processes related to odorant exposure and uptake, recent investigationshave targeted pharmacokinetic aspects of odorant inhalation, absorption, biotransformation, and elimination viabreath, urine, sweat, and human milk. Accordingly, Andrea’s research aims to raise awareness of smell and odordimensions in human life, especially in common, everyday situations. Her goal is to cross-link technological,chemical, or physiological aspects and to provide novel solutions in odor research. Novel or modified techniques,methodologies, processing technologies, analytical tools, and approaches related to smell are further outcomes ofher research strategy, with the ultimate aim to nourish interdisciplinary cross-talk on a topic that links chemical,analytical, material, and process engineering sciences with the fields of sociology and socio-ecology, psychology,and physiology.
