Museum of Arts and Design Launches Center for Olfactory Art, NY Times Pefume Critic Leaves to Join Staff

Thank to this release on their site, we’d known for the past couple of months that New York’s Museum of Arts and Design had an exhibit planned for next year focused on perfume-as-art, appropriately titled The Art of the Scent. Apparently, since October when this was first announced, a lot has gone on behind the scenes. Now it’s been announced that not only will the exhibition go on, but it will be the first by an entirely new wing of the museum, The Center of Olfactory Art.
