Odour judge
Cincinnati, Ohio

At 50-year-old Hilltop Labs in Cincinnati, odour tests are carried out daily on axillae (aka armpits), breath, feet, cat litter, and nappies. Here a test is being performed on a subject who has followed strict protocol for the deodorant efficacy study. Betty Lyons began her career 35 years ago as a subject herself. She then trained for almost a year and is still tested monthly to measure her acuity. Odours are judged on a scale of one to 10, and most odour judges are women: they are able to make finer distinctions, apparently.
