Such a great day in Grenoble discussing olfactory heritage — inspiring talks and stimulating encounters with perfumers, artists, and researchers. So inspiring to see scents bringing people together! Organised by @erikawicky.bsky.social and Audrey Colonel-Coquet

I’m working on early modern perfumery (France, 16th c.): ingredients, techniques, meanings. Curious to hear from scholars working on scent, crafts, material culture, or multisensory history. Let’s connect! #Histodon #SensoryStudies #EarlyModern #PhDLife #MaterialCulture #PerfumeHistory #Perfumery
