Evaluation of the negative health effects of smell disfunction gains importance as much as smelling the odor in daily lives. Responses to volatile chemicals and other chemicals are often variable across individuals. This relation is still underobservation. Although variability can derive from differences in individual olfactory sensitivity, the response to a chemical stimulus is also influenced by the complex environment surrounding the exposure. This exposure can include the perceivers cognitive state. Occupational environment is one of the important places that has role on smell disfunction. At the present time, the terms "fragrance-free" or "unscented" gets interest. This paper is a review of smell sense, importance of olfactory functions and dysfunctions, and possible effects of environmental and occupational toxic exposure. We grouped the toxic materials that have negative impact on smell function as inorganic and organic compounds, powders, metals and other industrial agents. Deterioration of smell sense can affect vital functions. Smell disfunction evaluation must be considered with its relation to taste sense. It is of great significance to evaluate smell functions as a routine part of history taking and physical examination in order to detect dysfunctions as an early diagnosis. Smell function is evaluated with a series of chemical tests in clinics. Here you can find some early onset smell disfunctions with some environmental and occupational agents which potentially could affect smell functions.
