Summary/Abstract: One of the goals of this study is to understand why there are more and more addicts of the olfactory universe. We have tried to convince the skeptics that apart from research in various fields (medicine, chemistry, history), we also speak of aesthetics, especially artistic (including that linked to odorama, cinema and literature). The intensity of the sense of smell will be significantly reduced and transcribed by its intimate nature, which encourages a new vision and perception that destroys human barriers.
