First of all, let’s know what perfume is ?
It is a group of synthetic and natural preparations that are integrated with each other to produce fresh and sweet scents and is formed in several forms, either liquid or fatty, where alcohol and aromatic stabilizer are applied to it and are placed on the body or clothes to remain for long periods

What is the link between perfumes and the senses?
The links between perfumes and the senses are numerous and complex, due to the effect of smells directly on the nervous system, especially through the sense of smell. Here I will tell you the different links:
:
Sense of smell:
When inhaling a specific scent, the aromatic molecules travel through the nose to olfactory receptors, which deliver signals directly to the brain, specifically to the limbic system, the part of the brain responsible for behavioral and emotional responses. Scents can therefore evoke certain memories or evoke specific emotions
Effect on taste:
Although the sense of taste depends on the receptors in the tongue, the sense of smell plays a big role in the taste experience and smells are often a big part of how we sense the taste, which is why food can lose its taste when a person has a cold.
Impact on touch and sight:
While fragrances have no direct impact on the senses of touch and sight, scents can affect how we perceive the environment around us.
