How To Smell
Close your eyes.
Breathe naturally. Do not sniff or change your breathing.
Give your nose time to get accustomed to the scent.
To refresh, breathe your own skin (no coffee beans, please).
Your brain is learning a new language. It will not explode.
—Christophe Laudamiel
How does smell move and disperse? The air around us is turbulent, flowing like a river. Odor molecules, invisible to the naked eye, are light enough to be swept around in the current, plumes of fragrance furling around us. Scientists have visualized smells by pointing a laser at fluorescent odor molecules. They discovered that odors creep, moving less like a puff of cumulus cloud and more like the rolling coils of thick cigar smoke. Filaments of smells are like tentacles that stretch and extend before they buckle and fold on top of one another.8 When we sniff, we may tug a tendril from a nearby odor plume into our nasal passage. “Roses,” our brain glistens momentarily before the plume passes, trailed by a blank pocket of air devoid of odor molecules.
In a hotel lobby or living room, plumes of fragrance designed for an interior environment can be delivered through a variety of scent players. These devices contain canisters loaded with scents, often in liquid form. The fragrances are heated, diffused into a space with a fan, and cooled before cycling again. Laudamiel’s custom fragrances are often diffused into an environment using scent players, programmed to emit aroma throughout the day.
