  Congenital anosmia and hyposmia (decreased sense of smell) has been described in several syndromes, where Kallmann syndrome is the best defined. [gransking.fo]

  And while a decrease in appetite is often reported in individuals with hyposmia, the lack of a noticeable effect in eating behaviors in individuals with ICA may be the result of being socialized without a sense of smell. [blogs.scientificamerican.com]
