The sense of smell is the most effective of all when
it comes to remembering past experiences. Smell goes through the olfactory bulb
which is the part of the brain in charge of analyzing odors.
The olfactory bulb is close to the amygdala and
hippocampus which are the brain regions that manage memory and emotion. This
connection explains why scents bring back our memories when triggered by these
stimuli.
The other senses, like the sense of touch, hearing,
and eyesight are not related to these brain regions and for this reason most of
the time their cues don't necessarily make us remember things.
The sense of smell is the first one to work when
humans are born, and it plays an important and special part in how they bond
with their parents. Also, that cute "baby smell" that infants produce
is nothing but a survival tool, aimed to get their parents’ full attention and
care.
It is amazing how a smell can take us to vivid
memories deep in our mind. For instance, the smell of Christmas is an abstract
concept, but as you're reading this you know what I mean and, maybe, some
imagery from your childhood came to mind.
Christmas odor includes cinnamon, apples, pine trees,
freshly baked cookies, chocolate, and other spices. But we all can relate to
the feelings that these scents can bring.
But if smells trigger memories, you can work them the
other way around. You can make your events and moments totally unforgettable.
