Question

During Havdalah, he recited the blessing 'Borei Minei Besamim', and when he smelled, it became clear that he had lost his sense of smell. Does this constitute an interruption for the blessing 'Borei Pri Hagafen', since it turned out that his blessing on the spices was in vain?

Answer

It is not an interruption, and there is no need to repeat the blessing on the wine.
