Anosmic
Commonly the slightly clumsy sounding “nose blind”?
Nose blind is something I’ve heard being used about dogs or other animals. They get so locked into a scent that they ignore everything else.
“Anosmic”. Not as euphonious as the others, but there you go.
Why don’t we have a word though? This is more of a medical diagnosis
That’s an interesting question, and I don’t know. The only alternatives for English I found were somewhat obvious combos like “smell blindness”. If I had to guess, probably it just isn’t common or disabling enough to come up often, so it doesn’t get its own word.
