olfactory art

Olfactory art is a unique form of artistic expression that uses scents to evoke emotions, memories, or concepts, much like visual or auditory art. Artists create fragrances that can engage the sense of smell, often incorporating them into installations or performances. This medium explores how smells influence our perceptions and can convey messages or themes. By focusing on our olfactory experiences, olfactory art challenges traditional art boundaries and invites audiences to experience art in a deeply personal and immediate way, highlighting the power of scent in shaping our memories and emotional responses.
