Have you ever heard of “nose blindness”? When you become so accustomed to a smell that you’re no longer aware of it? The home environment is the classic location for this to occur, leading to a less than hospitable ambiance. Aroma360 looks at the phenomenon and the ultimate method to overcome this common problem.

What Is Nose Blindness

Nose blindness (also referred to as sensory adaptation) is when the olfactory system becomes immune to a smell that’s stimulated the brain for an extended period. All homes have a particular fragrance, each unique to a combination of many things, such as your diet, pets, furnishings, even your washing powder!

We all spend plenty of time in our home space, meaning we quickly become used to the odors within—both good and bad.

Common Causes of Unwanted Odors

Many culprits can cause the signature scent of a home to be less than fragrant, including:

•     Dirty bed linen
•     Unwashed clothing
•     Fridges and freezers
•     Pets
•     Newly decorated areas
•     Furniture and carpets
•     Regular home workouts
•     Highly aromatic cooking ingredients (onions, garlic, etc.)

Why Does Nose Blindness Occur?

The brain is highly alert to new smells. This is to do with self-preservation, allowing you to quickly become conscious of an odor that might be dangerous (gas, burning, chemicals, etc.).  But once you’ve experienced an odor for a while the brain switches off this reaction meaning you’re no longer aware of it.

If you leave for a while—going to work or away for a vacation—it’s likely you’ll notice the smell when on your return. But it’s not a new fragrance. It’s there all the time and is the first thing every visitor notices when they enter. If that aroma is somewhat disagreeable then it’s certainly not something anybody wants to be known for…
