Official Pulse Club captures emotions through fragrance

As the semester winds down, many students begin to realize how fast time goes by. Outings with friends and late-night study sessions eventually turn into memories. Surrounded by a signature fragrance and paper cranes, students explored this idea of impermanence in the University Teaching Center basement on Wednesday night at the Official Pulse Club’s scent exhibition. Tracy Min, club president and economics senior, said she became interested in perfumes as a young child and felt surprised UT didn’t offer any clubs focused on perfumes. “I feel like people don’t really focus on scent … compared to other (visuals) or hearing because people like music, they like art, they like to watch a movie. … I feel like people (focus less) on the smelly part,” Min said. “I thought it’s gonna be really cool (for) people who don’t even care about perfume to join our club and see.” Advertisement The club holds general meetings once a month and invites students to experiment with fragrances.
