As one of the leading perfumers in the world, Han has a scent sense so fine-tuned that she&#8217;s capable of recreating, as she did for the exhibit, the smell of <strong>two friends walking silently<\/strong> through a forest. She talked about how she does that and about her concerns that some younger people believe their sense of smell is as useless as their <strong>pinkie<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Asia Morris<\/strong> and<strong> Steve Lowery<\/strong> talk about what to do this weekend in our weekly roundup of &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/hi-lo\/the-7-things-to-do-in-long-beach-this-weekend-including-you-smell\"><strong>The 7<\/strong><\/a>,&#8221; and Val Osier drops by to help remind everyone that the &#8220;<strong>Can You Hear Me<\/strong>&#8221; crew will be conducting <strong>Office Hours<\/strong> from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at <strong>Rose Park Roasters<\/strong> (800 Pine Ave.) where we will have one microphone primed and ready to go for anyone who has something to say.
