Olfactory team building for your teams
Get your team out of their comfort zone. By feeling, exchanging, and collaborating together, everyone finds their place, the conversation opens up, and the group leaves with a truly shared creation — or story.
Participation
Everyone acts, chooses, and finds their place in the experience.
Conversation
Perceptions open up a new and spontaneous conversation.
Creativity
Individual intuitions become a collective creation.
Memory
The group leaves with a truly common memory and narrative.
How to organize your olfactory team building?
The right format depends on what you want to create: welcoming a new team, celebrating, stimulating listening, or simply sharing a joyful moment. We specify the audience, the venue, and the available time with you, then prepare the materials and the rhythm that will allow everyone to participate. At our place, in your premises, or at the event venue, the experience maintains a clear thread.
And if your need is more about gaining skills,
Cinquième Sens Institute guides you towards the most suitable training.

Three formats
to become a collective
Recognition tests, intensity tests or comparison tests transform the olfactory discovery into a collective game. The participants observe their own way of perceiving, confront their perceptions and together search for the right words. Here, there are no good or bad noses: correction becomes a time of exchange enriched by stories about materials and scents. The format can take the energy of a team challenge or that of a shared exploration.
After discovering the great olfactory families, the teams move on to composition. Each shares their preferences, then the group chooses facets, writes a formula, and evaluates the resulting agreement. It is necessary to listen, argue, and arbitrate to bring out a common intention. Guided by Cinquième Sens, creation becomes a very concrete collaboration; the final presentation allows each team to tell their point of view with pride.
Chocolate, coffee, tea or spices: the chosen theme reveals the decisive role of the sense of smell in tasting. Participants first smell the main aromas, then find them again through retro-olfaction. History, origin, perception and vocabulary all come together in a delicious and lively experience. Boundaries shift, memories emerge and a simple substance becomes a particularly generous field of conversation.

Why choose olfaction?
The sense of smell does not impose a single right answer: it invites us to describe, listen, compare, and then decide together. This diversity creates a conversation different from those of everyday professional life. Sensitivity becomes a collective resource, and fragrance becomes a very concrete terrain for working together — without forced discourse about cohesion. Sometimes, this initial moment opens up a more lasting desire: to form a team around a common language or to give the brand an olfactory expression.
Cinquième Sens Institute and Cinquième Sens Studio can then take over, continuing the same expertise.
