THE BASICS
MISSION:
With just eight awards given a year, The Art and Olfaction Award is a highly competitive and selective international award that is designed to raise interest and awareness for active independent, artisan and experimental perfumers from all countries. Our hope is that by shining a spotlight on perfumery’s most outstanding creators, we will help generate support for independent practices with scent, as a whole.
The Art and Olfaction Awards are a program of The Institute for Art and Olfaction, a non-profit organization based in Los Angeles, CA.
NOMENCLATURE + QUICK FACTS:
+ The yearly event is called 'The Art and Olfaction Awards'
+ The award statuette is called 'The Golden Pear'
+ We announce the finalists in March of every year, at Esxence in Milan
+ We announce the winners in the spring of every year in a public award ceremony
+ The award ceremony changes locations on a yearly basis
+ We give awards in six categories: The Artisan Pefume Award, the Independent Perfume Award, the Sadakichi Award for Experimental Work with Scent, the Contribution to Scent Culture Award, the Septimus Piesse Award for Exceptional Vision, and the Aftel Award for Handmade Perfume.
