Listen...do you smell something? 


A couple of weekends ago I was listening to NPR's Studio 360 and the subject of the show was the "Art of Smell". Sarah Lilley was interviewing Christopher Brosius from Demeter Fragrances in NY city, a company that produces a line of scents of almost anything you can think of. Here's a short list of some that I found most interesting:

Dirt
Tomato
Waffle
Mildew
Holy Water
Celery
Funeral
Snow

Before I knew it, I was smelling playdough, thunderstorm, and dirt all within the confines of the car. It's amazing how your senses can work together to create an audible scratch-n-sniff. It's definitely worth a listen: Studio 360
