About this ebook
“I sing of smells, of scents, perfumes, odours, whiffs and niffs; of aromas, bouquets and fragrances; and also, though temperately and restrainedly I promise you, of effluvia, reeks, fœtors, stenches, and stinks.” For millennia, humans have let their sense of smell guide them through life. In this book, you will find an overview of how the olfactory system works and how it has influenced us throught out time.
