AI-Created Scents: How Olfactory Intelligence is Transforming Fragrance Design
Generation by Osmo uses olfactory intelligence, blending AI and data science with perfumery to create unique fragrances faster. Their AI-driven method ensures quality and compliance for beauty brands.
Generation by Osmo Turns Data to Scent with Olfactory Intelligence
Generation by Osmo introduces a new way to create fragrances using olfactory intelligence (OI), an AI-driven technology. This approach blends data science with traditional perfumery to speed up and improve the creation process. According to Alex Wiltschko, Osmo's founder and CEO, fragrance creation has often been slow and uncertain. OI offers brands a more intuitive, data-driven, and creative method to design scents.
At launch, Generation unveiled three unique fragrance ingredients developed through OI technology: Glossine, Fractaline, and Quasarine. By combining machine learning, neuroscience, data science, perfumery, and analytical chemistry, this new fragrance house helps beauty and personal care brands create cleaner scents faster. The process also ensures compliance with evolving regulations without sacrificing quality.
