What does lavender smell like? The answer depends on what species of lavender you smell in real time or in memory (where our brain stores images of smells we’ve encountered as well as smells encoded in memory). We often think the nose does the smelling, but we smell with our brain, which is the recipient of nerve signals ignited by smells. In essence, human smell memories are akin to chemical polaroids in the brain’s encyclopedia of smells.Details: https://aadl.org/node/646296
