The Smell of Burnt Toast: A Case Report
Shelley WB, Shelley ED
Cutis. 2000;65:225-226.
A 71-year-old woman awoke one morning to find that she perceived all aromas, odors, and fragrances as smelling like burnt toast. Over the next three years, numerous studies and therapeutic trials failed to elicit the cause of her dysosmia or to provide relief.
