The Science
Studies show that through regular training we can re-establish the disturbed communication between nose and brain.
By combining scents and images, ReScent offers a simple way to develop new pathways between the nose and our neuroplastic brain, improving the ability to identify common smells, but also increasing cognitive function generally.²

ReScent for loss of smell
Analysing your sense of smell
Anosmia, hyposmia and parosmia may be symptoms of infection (common cold, flu, COVID-19), head trauma, neurological or psychological disorders such as degenerative diseases, depression or severe and continuous stress.
Impaired sense of smell
Hyposmi
Anosmi
No sense of smell
Distorted sense of smell
Parosmi
Boost your brain
Regular scent training helps to activate the neural pathways to the brain's memory centre – the hippocampus – and recent studies have shown that olfactory training in older people (+57) can improve cognitive abilities, in certain instances, even more than daily sudokus!²
Prevent dementia
Dementia is rising globally, with 130 million cases projected by 2050.
Studies reveal older adults (57+) struggling to identify common odors are twice as likely to develop dementia within five years. Regular scent training has been shown to boost both smell and cognitive function.³
