Master Parfums' [Olfactory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragrance-formulas) Game uses questions, challenges, scent pens and blotters to stimulate [scent memory](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kaorium), express emotions and help people improve the way that communicate their experience with different aromas. In the game, players will encounter cards like [Create a Fragrance](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miniverse-make-it-mini-fragrances) and Ready, Set, Sniff! and the first one to collect 12 cards wins and gets to call themself the Master of Perfumes. The cards have designated spots for drawing with scent pens, so that unique fragrances can be created by assigning top, base and middle notes.

Those who own the Master Parfums Pocket Quiz will find that the Olfactory Game expands the original experience with double the questions.

As well as appealing to fragrance lovers, the game supports students and professionals who want a hands-on way to continue their training.
