Description
An interactive tour with scent stations
Scents, whether natural or artificial, awaken memories and emotions, are daily companions, and serve as a means of communication. But how do they come about? What do we actually smell when we sniff perfumes, deodorants, and creams? What made the scent of certain even-toed ungulates and whales so popular? And what do olfactory chemists research? You and your nose will learn this and more on this interactive public tour with a special scent.
