About STANA™
The Smell and Taste Association of North America (STANA™) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting individuals living with smell and taste disorders.
Through research advocacy, education, and community support, STANA™ works to bring visibility to conditions like anosmia, the partial or complete loss of smell, which affects millions and is often overlooked.
Their mission is to ensure that those living without scent are met with understanding, resources, and meaningful support.
The moments that shaped this house.
Why This Is Personal
House of Iyrah began with something missing.
Our founder’s mother lost her sense of smell. What followed was not simply absence, but a redefinition of how memory and identity are experienced.
Scent became something deeper, not just fragrance, but connection.
Supporting STANA™ is part of our origin.
Understanding Anosmia
Smell shapes memory, safety, emotion, and identity. When it is lost, life shifts in ways many do not see.
In Partnership With
The Smell and Taste Association of North America™
STANA™ is the first patient advocacy organization in North America dedicated to supporting individuals living with smell and taste dysfunction. Through education, awareness, and collaboration, they work to elevate understanding in a space that is often overlooked.
