The Monday Nose

Weekend Recovery and Weekday Re-adaptation of Odour Thresholds for a Workplace's Own Cleaning Fragrance

A research poster from the School of Continuous Improvement tracks the detection thresholds of 64 office staff for their own building's scented floor-cleaning product at Monday, Wednesday and Friday sessions over ten weeks, against 22 visitors and an n-butanol control, finding that a weekend away recovers about half of the staff's Friday deficit and that the gain is spent again by Wednesday.
