How did this quiz come to be?

The Founding Sense of Brilliance

The idea for PINROSE started when one of our founders, Erika Shumate, who studied the psychology of smell and the sensory phenomenon of synesthesia at Yale University, had a stroke of brilliance: What if the principles of synesthesia could not only create more sensory rich fragrances, but also detect a person’s scent preferences and thereby provide more personalized suggestions? Our Scent Profile Quiz was designed to guide you through a series of sensory preference choices using methods based on synesthesia.

Find your perfect scents through your senses.

Synesthesia is the neurological interconnection of your senses and how they perceive color, shape, texture, sound and other sensory input. Drawing on the principles of synesthesia, we quiz your sensory interconnections to suss out your preferences and recommend the master perfumer-created fragrance for you.
