4. The participants found out what a fragrance and olfactory pyramid are, what types of perfume we have and how they are made.

5. The students smelled...

6. …they checked how we recognize taste of products if we don`t smell their fragrance (very badly ! See yourself !)

7. They discovered the mysteries of drinks – sweeteners, conservants, acids, colourants...

8. Then the students composed their „ideal” drink, the one they would like to find in shops.

9. …chosing components, measuring the quantity of ingredients, stirring...

10. Next chosing the kind of package, planning the marketing campaign, deciding about the target group.

11. Finally, one participant per group advertised their product and the rest could compare what the advert and the reality have in common...
