Smells significantly affect human feelings and emotions and have dramatic implications for psychological, sexual and emotional behavior because the sense of smell is linked to the movement of hormones and the nerve circuits in the human brain. Without smell, our lives lose a lot of beauty and joy. Every person has a "olfactory passport" that distinguishes him from others. Olfactory passports play a pivotal role in shaping the social web that connects people to one another and helps infants to recognize their mothers from the scents of their bodies.
This encyclopedic study is worth reading because it delves into the details and theories that form the thesis of smell and smell, not only in humans but in the worlds of animals and plants.
