Scent is processed through the olfactory bulb located inside your nose and then runs up and along the base of the brain. Our smell receptors are directly connected to the limbic part of the brain where emotions and memories are stored. This part of your brain can trigger powerful memories and sometimes evoke strong emotions to a certain fragrance.
