Reading the passage
What are these noses doing? They experiment with scent combinations and produce the resulting sensations. The following sentences call the person doing that work a perfumer. The word names the creators through the sense they work with.
Working the answers
- ACorrect
Perfumers create the combinations being described. Replace noses with perfumers and the sentence keeps its meaning.
- B
Collectors acquire perfumes; they aren't the people formulating the scents in this sentence.
- C
The perfumes are the products of the experimentation. They aren't the talented people doing it.
- D
Marketing is selling or promoting perfume, not creating its scent. Talent alone doesn't make this the right description of the work in the sentence.
- E
Pricing perfumes isn't the activity described either. The context concerns making an artistic combination of scents, not deciding what to charge.
