Scent and flavor go hand in hand, and it’s actually close to impossible to taste without your sense of smell (a condition called anosmia). The Dekalb Library Foundation is hosting a benefit dinner at Sage restaurant in Decatur on August 28 a t 7 p.m. to benefit the Dekalb County Public Library. The subject? Smells.

New York Times perfume critic Chandler Burr will be on hand to talk about perfume scents and raw materials used in the perfume industry that will be highlighted in the dinner. So if you’ve ever had the notion of smearing yourself in vanilla or tucking a little cinnamon and chocolate behind your ear, this $200 per person event is for you. Go to scentandsavor.kintera.org or call 404-370-8450, ext. 2238 for more information.
