I am losing fragrance between drying and curing. I hang stalks for 7-10 days, in a room that I allow go from very humid at hanging to about 55% after a few days. then trim over the course of 5-7 days, then cure for 1-2 weeks and store in stainless steel c-vaults. But what was originally sticky and smelly is becoming not so fragrant. Otherwise beautiful, healthy plants and flowers. Suggestions? Help?

Sounds to me like you might have overdryed it, did you follow the advice on GWE about the drying part, that's how I dry mine, just like Nebula says, and it smells wonderful, even some that's been in jars, way longer than 5 months.
Losing fragrance during drying is normal it will come back during the cure. How long have they been in the c-vault? Put a hygrometer in the cvault and measure your RH, the cure zone is 60-65%, if your RH is well below that then maybe you dried it too much. You could try adding a Boveda 62 humidipak if that's the case. Like DAAS said theres a great tutorial on GWE. Good Luck.
