In California, summer has arrived. And with the new season comes some of its most delicious and treasured flavors: tropical fruits like watermelon, pineapple, and peach instantly transport us to the beach, where the sweet-salty smell of the ocean accompanies us on our journey. Other flavors, like orange and cinnamon spices, whisk us away to the mountains, where the intense aromas of campfire, roasted marshmallows, and mulled wine follow close behind, filling us with nostalgia and a sense of adventure.
Robust, memorable flavors don’t just get our tongues tingling and our mouths salivating but are deeply intertwined with intense and meaningful fragrances. Our sense of taste is only half of the flavor equation. The other half is the accompanying fragrances that can twist, transform, and heighten our perception of various flavors. Most researchers agree that our sense of smell plays a “dominant” role in how we experience taste.1Our noses detect tens of thousands of different scents, providing diverse capacity for detection and powerful influence over our sense of taste, which seems comparatively limited, restricted to five primary flavors: sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami.
Unifying Flavor and Fragrance: The Dawn of Flagrance™
Given that our sense of smell plays such an important role in taste perception, isn’t it time to take biology’s lead and improve the approach to flavor formulation? AtSensegen, we’ve fully embraced that our senses work hand-in-hand and have our flavorists and perfumers do the same. Our approach goes beyond typical scientific collaboration; we’ve developed a true sense of connection between our flavor and fragrance teams.
分解感官孤岛的结果一直是并继续是惊人的，比单独工作的单个调味师或孤立的调香师的总和要大得多。到目前为止，这是一个独特的环境。
我们称其为“空和”。
平淡无奇超越了调味师和调香师的简单整合。它允许冒险的科学家从一个全新的创新方向自由探索配方，从而注入了急需的风味感知。简而言之，我们提高了“口味”的定义。
通过交换专业知识来解决问题
当人们从不同的背景和生活的前女友periences can freely connect, challenging problems get solved through innovation. Flavorists and perfumers use different lexicon, ingredients, and combinations. These differences may have kept them in their worlds, but the flagrance approach has brought them together to experience inspiration from another planet. As we’ve seen, inspiration is an excellent springboard for the birth of novel solutions to challenging problems.
For instance, our flavorists and perfumers gather a lot of inspiration from the landscapes of California. While a flavorist may look at the vineyards of Napa, Temecula, and Sonoma and feel moved to create a refreshing, sweet sangria, a perfumer might think of airy, open, and fresh scents. Using these distinct starting points and collaborating on a shared formulation drives a unique and pleasant marriage between taste and scent, ultimately leading to a creative solution that neither would have developed in isolation.
Sharing a “Natural” Palette
传统上，调香剂依靠合成化合物，这对当今环保的消费者构成了越来越多的挑战。干净，天然和可持续的产品是每个消费者清单的首选，基于石油的化学合成的使用会在产品开发人员和购买者之间带来哲学摩擦。
OurMolecular Precision™ approachhas enabled us to produce a natural palette of ingredients, that satisfy coveted consumer desires. Flagrance inspires our flavorists and perfumers to share palettes, allowing flavorists to develop additionally unique flavors, which also continues to motivate perfumers toward “natural” ingredients. For Sensegen, this means natural and sustainable bio-designed ingredients.
