Aroma release theory

Aroma release theory explains how our senses perceive the smell of a substance over time. When we smell something, tiny aroma molecules are released from a source, like food or a perfume. Factors such as temperature, texture, and composition influence how quickly and steadily these molecules evaporate and reach our nose. The theory suggests that different formulations or conditions can control the intensity and duration of aroma perception, allowing for tailored sensory experiences. Essentially, it describes the scientific principles behind how and why aromas are perceived differently depending on their release and environmental interactions.
