Sniff Test for Deodorants and Anti-Odors

With the arrival of summer, the use of deodorant and antiperspirant products has also increased. Deodorants and their varieties are products that reduce body odor with masking, perfuming, antimicrobial and absorbent components. Since deodorants and their varieties contain antiperspirant substances, they undergo various tests and analyzes to determine whether they are suitable for human health.

Apart from these tests and analyzes, the effectiveness of deodorants should also be tested. With the Sniff Test, it is aimed to prove the sensory effectiveness of deodorants. The "Sniff Test", a sensory test, evaluates the difference between a team of 4 sniffers and people who have used and not used deodorant.

The purpose of the Sniff Test is to develop a reproducible and more objective method for the sensory detection of body odor. Within the scope of the analysis, sniffers evaluate according to a certain analog measure:

Smell Scale	Density Value
no body odor	0
mild body odor	2
moderate body odor	4
clearly body odor	6
strong body odor	8
very strong body odor	10
