An odor tester engages in laboratory testing to adjust the chemical composition and smells of products. They use their sense of smell to identify scents, test how products smell upon cooking or mixing, and collaborate with scientists to develop desired scents. A bachelor's degree in chemistry is required, along with the ability to distinguish similar scents and understand how chemicals react together. Experience in the relevant industry is also preferred.

As an odor tester, you engage in laboratory testing to adjust a product’s chemical composition and improve or alter its smell. Your responsibilities depend on your workplace and industry. For example, for a company that makes frozen foods, you use your nose (and science) to identify different scents and to test how a product smells upon cooking. In some cases, you might use your sense of smell to identify disparate scents in something, such as a perfume or a room spray. Other duties might include using chemistry to determine a scent, documenting your findings, and collaborating with scientists and engineers to produce a desired effect.
How to Become an Odor Tester
The minimum qualifications to become an odor tester include a
bachelor’s degree in chemistry. Some employers prefer applicants with experience in the relevant industry; for example, to be an odor tester for a fragrance company, employers prefer you have previous experience in the beauty industry. You should have good communication skills and the ability to distinguish between similar scents. Understanding how chemicals and scents react when someone mixes them is also beneficial. You use computers as part of your job, so foundational knowledge of computers is critical. Deodorant Tester
