SCENT (A.K.A. PERFUME)

The definition of perfume is a substance, extract, or preparation for diffusing or imparting an agreeable or attractive smell, esp. a fluid containing fragrant natural oils extracted from flowers, woods, etc., or similar synthetic oils.

Scent is the initial reason we began thinking about a business involving bath and body products. Jennifer, our founder and owner, has a most keen sense of smell which led to the company's creation. Our (you and me) olfactory receptor cells (the cells in our nasal passages that serve as the receptors for scent) play such an important role in living. We know this isn't a science class, but According to the book Molecular Biology of the Cell:

"Humans can distinguish more than 10,000 different smells (odorants), which are detected by specialized olfactory receptor neurons lining the nose.... It is thought that there are hundreds of different olfactory receptors, each encoded by a different gene and each recognizing different odorants."

WOW! That's a lot of smelling going on!

How does this relate to our site and our products? Well, based on that, and based on the fact that scent greatly effects mood, we choose our fragrances by how they effect us. In our opinion, KLEAN Scents will enhance your mood and attract positive emotions from others. (We know that the pleasure of a scent is a subjective one, but in our "subjective" opinion, our fragrances ROCK!)
